Job description
About Nirvana
The $1 trillion commercial insurance industry is broken, still running on paperwork and fax machines. Rates are disconnected from actual risk, quotes take weeks, and claims drag on for months. Nirvana is changing that - using data and AI to reimagine insurance from the ground up.
We’ve built cutting-edge predictive models using 50B+ miles of proprietary IoT data, and AI-powered underwriting and claims to be >4x faster. We’ve proven the model with $300M+ run-rate, industry-leading loss ratios and are backed by marquee VCs like Lightspeed, General Catalyst and Valor.
We're now expanding beyond an AI-native insurer into a broader platform - multiple businesses transforming the entire insurance value chain. This is a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of shaping a new paradigm in AI and insurance.
The role
As Chief of Staff, you’d sit at the center of the business and work directly with Rushil on the most strategic initiatives across the company. You’d scale how we operate, solve the most critical problems and define new avenues for growth, especially where ownership is unclear.
This is NOT a coordination role. We’re looking for someone who can operate in ambiguous and demanding environments, holds extremely high standards and has the ability to move from board-level strategy to execution detail without compromise.
For the right person who wants to build, this is the perfect accelerant to owning your own P&L, ideally within Nirvana as we continue to expand or even beyond. Success here isn’t being in this role forever - it’s the opportunity to start something with Rushil’s full backing.
Responsibilities include:
Drive clarity around critical decisions, separate signal from noise and follow-through until they become outcomes
Own high-priority projects and cross-functional initiatives that don’t have a natural home yet
Scale our operating rhythms with a high bar for impact - business reviews, off-sites, planning and more
Proactively identify and solve bottlenecks across the company
Run board and investor prep, and help shape how we tell our story externally
Who we're looking for
5+ years experience in high-ownership roles: we’re not wedded to a specific pedigree, we want smart generalists from the likes of consulting, finance, product, business operations, military, founder/CEO office, etc. Most important is to have operating experience in fast-moving environments
Previous founding experience strongly preferred, even if it didn’t work
Strategic and analytical thinker
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Bias-to-action and self-driven: you move fast and build things yourself with an AI-native mindset
Thrive in high-growth environments with limited direction
Very high judgment and maturity with sensitive, high-stakes information
High agency, low ego: you’re willing to do whatever the company needs
Executive presence and influence: you can push back, when necessary, on experienced leaders
Benefits
Competitive salary & equity
Medical, dental & vision insurance (100% employer paid)
401k with up to 4% company match
Unlimited PTO
Wellness reimbursement
We set our salary ranges using compensation data from companies similar to our stage and size. For this role, the estimated total cash for this position is $180,000- $300,000. The actual total cash salary will vary depending on multiple factors unique to each candidate, including location, job-related knowledge, transferable skills, work experience and our assessment of your level during the interview process. Nirvana offers equity for all full-time employees, which is not included in the range listed above and will have an impact on your overall compensation.
