## Description

### About Brighterway

Brighterway builds AI-native claims software and administration for casualty claims. We started in workers' compensation medical-legal review, where our agentic document pipeline sorts, de-duplicates and summarizes some of the most document-heavy files in the industry for national medical-evaluation networks. We are now building the claims platform on top of that foundation: intake across mail, fax, phone and email, bill review, subrogation, reserving signals, a workflow language, and state and federal reporting.
We are backed by Y Combinator and Maverick Ventures. Our customers handle protected health information every day, so we run HIPAA, SOC 2 and ISO 27001 programs. The team is small and technical and sits close to customers. Everyone ships, and everyone talks to the people who use what they ship.

### The role

We are looking for an experienced adjuster to handle California workers' compensation claims and move cases toward resolution. You will work on our platform, often directly alongside a customer's claims team, and you will work closely with the engineers building better tools for adjusters. What you find wrong or slow in a file becomes a fix in the product.

### What you will do

- Review claim files, identify missing information, and set clear next steps.

- Help finalize settlements: contact injured workers, explain documents, obtain signatures, and follow through with the WCAB.

- Keep accurate, timely notes and flag issues before they become delays.

- Review AI-generated summaries, chronologies and risk flags, and correct them. Your corrections train the system.

- Document California requirements (benefit notices, UR and IMR, QME and AME, MPN, liens, C&R and Stips) for the product team.

### What we look for

- At least five years handling California workers' compensation claims.

- Strong file-review skills and sound judgment on compensability, reserves and settlement.

- Clear, patient communication with injured workers, attorneys and providers.

- Ability to handle California claims is required; a California SIP designation or active adjuster license is a plus.

- Precise in writing and comfortable giving blunt feedback to software people.

### Nice to have

- Experience at a TPA, carrier or self-insured employer program in California.

- Experience with litigated files and settlement negotiation.

- Experience with claims system migrations.

### How we work

- Small team, high trust, direct access to founders and customers.

- We ship to production weekly and measure ourselves on customer outcomes.

- Competitive salary and meaningful equity. Health, dental and vision coverage. Flexible time off.

Brighterway is an equal opportunity employer.
