We are partnering with a leading AI lab to train frontier models on high-quality insurance reasoning data. We're hiring Disability Claims & Underwriting Specialists to design realistic disability adjudication and risk-selection scenarios, evaluate model outputs against established industry standards, and help shape how the next generation of AI reasons about disability definitions, medical and vocational evidence, and benefit entitlement.
We welcome group and individual disability claims examiners, disability underwriters, vocational rehabilitation professionals, return-to-work and absence-management specialists, and appeals reviewers from carriers, TPAs and employer-side programs.
What You'll Do
- Design realistic scenarios involving short- and long-term disability claims, elimination periods, own-occupation and any-occupation definitions, residual and partial disability, offsets, recurrent disability and claim duration management
- Create work products such as claim determinations, benefit calculations, medical and vocational evidence summaries, transferable-skills analyses, return-to-work plans and appeal decisions
- Write "golden" reference responses at experienced disability-professional quality
- Grade AI-generated responses against structured rubrics for definitional accuracy, evidentiary support, benefit-calculation correctness and procedural fairness
- Identify misapplied disability definitions, unsupported functional conclusions, missed offsets, incorrect benefit math, and failures to document the administrative record
- Provide written feedback the research team uses to improve model behavior
- Participate in onboarding office hours and calibration sessions
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
