# The best thing about working at EvolutionIQ? Easy: the people. ‍ At EvolutionIQ, we innovate with purpose and compassion. We’ve created a fun, passionate, humorous, friendly, and driven culture - the true magic behind a technology that has already helped tens of thousands of people and is helping more every single day. ## Our mission is to deliver state of the art technology that helps insurance claims teams make claims handling more accurate, fair, and efficient, so that more people impacted by injury or illness can continue their lives with dignity and stability. ## Join Us at EvolutionIQ – The Future of AI-Driven Claims Intelligence for Injury and Disability At EvolutionIQ, we’ve built best-in-class AI guidance software that is fundamentally transforming the insurance industry. Our technology empowers claims professionals to identify critical patterns earlier, improve decision-making, and ultimately change lives—helping injured and disabled individuals return to work faster while reducing unnecessary costs for insurers. In January 2025, we became part of CCC Intelligent Solutions, the leading cloud platform provider for the insurance economy. This partnership isn’t about slowing down—it’s about scaling up. Our leadership team remains the same and our focus on customer value is stronger than ever. ### The Best of Both Worlds ### No Funding Rounds. No Existential Threats. With the financial backing of a $7B market cap public company, we have the freedom to focus on innovation, not survival. ### Speed & Impact. We still operate like a high-growth startup—fast-moving, impactful, and ambitious. ### A Scale-Up Experience with Stability. You get the best of both worlds: the agility of a rapidly growing AI startup and the resources of an industry leader. ### Tremendous Market Opportunity. Insurance claims account for trillions in payouts annually, and carriers are rapidly adopting AI to improve efficiency and outcomes. ### A Transparent, Collaborative Culture. Our people come first. We cultivate an environment where everyone thrives—fostering deep connections through team events, annual retreats, team on-sites, and a culture that balances high-impact work with genuine fun. ## Where We’re Headed ### Disability & Workers' Compensation Claims We’ll continue to operate independently, driving AI innovation in these spaces. ### Auto Casualty Claims We’re joining forces with CCC to build the future of injury claims management, leveraging the strengths of both platforms. ## Our Vision ## Be Part of the Future We’re just getting started. If you want to work on cutting-edge AI, drive real impact, and help shape the future of insurance technology, now is the time to join EvolutionIQ. ## Our Team ### Mike Saltzman Co-founder and CEO [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-saltzman-9536812b/) ### Jonathan Lewin Co-founder and CEO [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathan-l-0306091/) ### Tomas Vykruta Co-founder and President [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tvykruta/) ### Karan Uppal Chief Technology Officer [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/karanuppal/) ### Benjamin Berry Chief Product Officer [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjaminberry/) ### Rooney Gleason Chief Insurance Officer [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rooney-gleason-778b387/) ### Mark Shaner VP, Technical Engagement [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-shaner/) ### Richard Timbol Chief Security Officer [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/richinfosec/) ### Sarah Schuermann VP, People [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarah-schuermann/) ### Anshumam Acharya VP, Client Services [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anshumanacharya/) ### Wrenny Head of Office Pawlitics [Team member Linkedin](https://www.evolutioniq.com/about#) ### Daniel Gabbay, MD Clinical Technology Director [Team member Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-gabbay-md-51916271/) ## EvolutionIQ's Guiding Principles ### Move with Focus and Urgency In that order – We bias toward identifying the single most important thing to do—and then acting on it with urgency. ### Experiment. Learn. Refine. When direction is uncertain, speed of learning matters more than polish. We move forward by running smart experiments that teach us — then use those insights to make things better, fast. ### Debate Openly, Decide Swiftly. We create space for open and honest debate with clearly identified decision makers. Once a decision is made, we move as one. ### Build for All When we have high conviction and high certainty, we build for the long term—creating reusable, extensible systems that save time for ourselves, our teams, and our customers. ### Create Long-term Customer Value We seek to deliver value not just today but for the future. Trust and relationships are built slowly, over time. ### Communicate Early and Often We bias toward over-communication—because clarity, context, and visibility are fuel for fast-moving teams. ## Purpose-built to claims professionals across the industry ### Drew Keneally Client Strategy "One of the most fun things is when you see somebody completely change the way they thought about claims for the last decade. Once you get that, everything else falls into place." ### Benjamin Berry Chief Product Officer "My favorite thing about work for EvolutionIQ is collaborating with some of the most brilliant people I've known, solving a problem our customers really care about that can have such a positive impact on the society. Every day we have an impact driving down the cost of that risks sharing while simultaneously decreasing the burden on those trying to recover from catastrophe." ### Karan Uppal Chief Technology Officer "I joined EvolutionIQ because I wanted to work at a fast moving company solving real pain points for their clients. I continue to stay because the work is really rewarding and I get to learn a lot from the people I work with." ### Casey Donahoe Client Strategy "I enjoy working with EvolutionIQ because of the collaborative culture. I am primarily responsible for implementing and supporting our external partners, but I also love working on internal projects focused on scaling the business and driving innovation."
