Insurance is a $7T global industry built on professional labor: underwriting, claims, pricing, operations, and distribution. Kalepa is building AI that can perform that work.
We create professional-grade AI systems for insurers: software that can read, reason, decide, and act inside real workflows and operate over long-time horizons. Kalepa begins by augmenting professionals with the tools to succeed at their jobs. That earns us the right to learn from real decisions, capture decision traces, and automate what can be automated successfully over time.
Our products are already in production with leading insurers, driving measurable outcomes and expanding across functions. The opportunity is far broader than any single workflow: to build the AI operating system for decision-making across insurance. For people who want to work on AI that matters, in a sector where correctness, trust, and real-world impact count, Kalepa is just getting started.
Kalepa is backed by leading investors such as IA Ventures and Inspired Capital, and our team brings experience from Facebook, Palantir, Google, Amazon, McKinsey, Mastercard, and Uber.
Many organizations have a dusty list of corporate values that no one ever follows. Kalepa is not one of those companies. Our values are designed to unlock the potential of our employees.
Success at Kalepa is bred from five core principles:
In addition to our NY office, we have remote employees speaking 10+ languages across the globe. But we invest in bringing our people together both for regional meetups and global offsites (2021 - Playa Del Carmen | 2022 - Rome | 2023 - Buenos Aires | 2024 - Lisbon | 2025 - Cartagena).
Kalepa’s culture isn’t for everyone, and that’s ok. But for the people who are a fit, they can’t imagine working elsewhere.
Base Salary: $170K - $190K*
Year 1 OTE: $340K - $380K (uncapped commission/upside), guaranteed attainment for first two quarters of Year 1
Location Preference: This role may require up to ~50% travel depending on your location. You will be expected to spend several days per week meeting with clients and prospects in-person. There is a preference for Tri-state area or Chicago, but open to other geographies in CST or EST with access to a major airport.
Kalepa is looking for an exceptional Strategic Accounts Director with 10+ years of enterprise sales experience to help spearhead commercial growth and secure new relationships with leading US insurers. We are a VC-backed, remote-friendly startup delivering software to transform and disrupt commercial insurance. Our HQ is located in New York City.
In this sales role, you will focus on a set of named, high-value, tier 1 enterprise accounts. You will own a mix of prospects (primary focus) and cross-sell opportunities at existing accounts. Within these accounts, you will be expected to identify key influencers and stakeholders, develop new relationships and nurture existing ones, turn them into sales opportunities, and ultimately deliver large commercial agreements.
The Strategic Accounts Director will be working closely with company leadership and serve as a trusted thought partner to the prospects/clients they serve. You'll be expected to think strategically and continuously devise and execute on novel and thoughtful approaches to generate new opportunities and expand Kalepa's revenue from your set of named accounts. You will partner closely with Kalepa's Client Success team to ensure engagements are set up to deliver significant commercial impact and ROI for our clients and to evangelize Kalepa within client organizations.
