AACI Group, Inc. is dedicated to making insurance more accessible and affordable in catastrophe-prone regions. Climate change is increasing the frequency and severity of wildfires and other natural disasters, while carriers are retreating from high-risk markets. Homeowners are being left with fewer and more expensive options. We are addressing this challenge by building AI-native insurance agencies and digital services that combine risk data, loss prevention, and innovative product delivery.
About Five Bays Insurance AgencyFive Bays Insurance Agency is an independent personal lines insurance agency helping homeowners and property owners secure coverage in hard-to-insure, catastrophe-prone markets, with an initial focus on California. We specialize in navigating constrained underwriting environments and helping clients maintain meaningful, sustainable coverage.
Role OverviewFive Bays sells in squads: an AE Lead, an AE Follow and a Support Associate, backed by automated quoting, a residual quoting team for manual and wholesale risks, and a centralized servicing team that owns everything after bind. As an AE Follow, you are a licensed producer working alongside your squad's AE Lead. You take licensed follow-ups and closes off the Lead's plate, own simpler deals from quote to bind, and step in when the Lead is out so clients always reach a licensed advisor. It's a hands-on role for a producer who wants to sell, learn fast and grow into leading a squad.
