Simplify rebuilding from claim to completion.

We’re building the fastest, simplest way to deploy capital for property restoration after disaster by fixing how money flows through insurance claims. Backed by a bank and family office, Captain has working software, demonstrated demand, and a clear thesis. Now we need an entrepreneurial operator to bring it to life.

Where We’ve Been

  • Built software that pays contractors upfront while we manage insurance reimbursement
  • Secured committed capital from institutional partners
  • Proven contractor demand with 300+ on a waitlist across 50 states

Where We Are

  • Regulatory shifts in our launch market require a strategic pivot
  • Relaunching to test product-market fit in a pilot

Where We’re Going

  • Close the gap between disaster and recovery by accelerating capital flow
  • Make disaster zones investable through trust, speed, and repeatability
  • Become the go-to platform for deploying billions in recovery funding

Where You Come In

You’ll design and launch a lean proof-of-concept pilot to demonstrate real impact, build relationships with institutional partners to secure a launch customer, and translate key learnings into systems and capital structures built to scale with confidence.

  • Have 5–10+ years building in fintech, govtech, or complex service environments
  • Have worked with banks, public agencies, or institutional capital partners
  • Understand capital flow, compliance, and timing mismatches
  • Have worked with banks, public agencies, or institutional capital partners
  • Bring a founder’s mindset and thrive in ambiguity
  • Have experience in regulated, trust-driven markets—like disaster recovery or restoration
  • Lead a company with a bold vision for economic and social impact.
  • Enjoy a leadership role with high autonomy, significant upside potential, and the ability to make a lasting impact.
  • And, of course, competitive compensation package including salary, benefits, and equity. Commensurate with experience.
