At any given time, 16 million Americans are experiencing a crisis that requires urgent help from our legal system or government. The right assistance could transform their lives. But today, most never get it.
Atticus makes it easy for any sick or injured American to get life-changing aid. Our mission is to tear down barriers between people in crisis and the aid they deserve. In the last six years, we’ve become the leading platform connecting people with disabilities to government benefits.
We also help victims of accidents, misconduct, and violence get compensation from insurance. So far, we’ve helped hundreds of thousands of people access over $10 billion in life-changing aid —and earned over 20,000 five-star reviews. And we’re just getting started.
We've raised more than $100 million from top VC firms like Fika, Forerunner, Google Ventures, and True Ventures, and we’re on our way to creating a category defining business assisting needy Americans.
At every step of our funnel, we aim to make choosing Atticus a no-brainer. Our platform covers a lot: evaluating a client’s case, giving advice, matching them with the right lawyer, formalizing the arrangement, and helping both parties work together as the case progresses. We hold ourselves to an incredibly high bar, because we know it results in life-changing aid for those in need. A few examples of what we’re currently working on:
This is a rare opportunity to join a startup that has strong traction (substantial funding, well-respected backers, tremendous growth, and many happy customers) but is still small enough that you can have a huge impact and play a role in shaping our culture.We’re a certified B Corporation tackling a critical social problem. Our mission to help people in need drives everything we do, and your work here will touch many lives.
We offer competitive pay — including equity for all employees — and generous benefits:
This job is fully remote and we’re committed to empowering everyone with flexibility. Work remotely, and travel to LA (on the company dime) as needed to be with your colleagues – usually quarterly, plus offsites. We care a lot about building a great culture and we think some interactions need to happen in person, so we put a lot of thought into retreats, offsites, and other ways to gather.

Atticus helps people in crisis get aid from government and insurance. More than 100,000 Americans (of all backgrounds) turn to us each year, and we get them >$10B in lifetime monetary aid and healthcare coverage. All are at a difficult moment in their lives, when they need a helping hand but bureaucratic hurdles can feel insurmountable. We use modern tech + caring human experts to turn a complex, demeaning, and scary process into a simple, dignified, and ethical one. Our ultimate goal is to reverse the decades-long decline of America’s social safety net.
*************
We’re hiring a lot, and if that mission excites you we’d love to talk. Things to know:
* We’re an odd beast: (a) a high-growth venture-backed tech startup building a massive valuable company, (b) a social-enterprise B Corp on a mission to help people in need, and (c) a licensed law firm with deep ethical obligations to our clients. We hew to a very particular business model to keep those all aligned! We love hiring people torn between public-sector mission and private-sector dynamism.
* We’re largely remote but have physical presence in LA, SF, NY, and Phoenix. We don’t care where you live/work, but we appreciate people who like their colleagues, we maintain nice offices for teams that like working in-person, and we drag folks to on-sites/retreats more than most.
* We’re growing at a rapid clip (85 in Jan 2024, 150 in Jan 2025, 200+ today) with all the opportunities/change that involves. Some parts of our business operate with maturity and scale, and others act like internal early startups. There are jobs open in each of those sides, and chances to jump back and forth.
* We’re open to folks from all backgrounds. The team includes former teachers, musicians, consultants, corporate lawyers, pro athletes, organizers, and journalists... college dropouts and people who won prizes at Harvard. Some of our best people applied cold on LinkedIn, so we take this place seriously! We'd love to hear from you!
