On-site
At Venteur, we’re rebuilding health insurance from the ground up—making it more affordable, portable, and human-centered. We partner with employers to move beyond one-size-fits-all group plans, giving employees tax-free dollars to choose the health coverage that works best for them. Behind the scenes, our proprietary AI simplifies the experience by scanning hundreds of plan options and helping each person confidently choose the right one.
The results speak for themselves: 20–30% savings for employers, reduced out-of-pocket costs for employees, and better healthcare decisions across the board. Think of us as the platform that makes personalized health insurance not only possible, but scalable.
And we’re just getting started.
We're a Series A startup backed by $30M in funding and growing fast—with offices in San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, and NYC, a team of 60, and $10M in revenue (on pace for $30M by year-end). We’ve got the energy of a startup and the runway of a company built to last.
Why We’re Orcas (and Why You Might Be One Too)
Being part of Venteur isn’t about checking boxes—it’s about how you show up, lead, and lift others up every day. Like orcas, we’re smart, agile, and committed to our pod. We move fast. We say yes to the tough stuff. We insist on high standards—for ourselves and each other. And we do it with kindness, grit, and trust.
Orcas are more than apex predators—they’re strategic, collaborative, and capable of incredible feats when working as one. That’s how we operate, too. Whether it’s tackling messy systems, building beautiful product experiences, or supporting each other during a tough sprint, we show up with heart and hustle.
We’re not building this company to play small. If you believe in doing hard things the right way—and want to build alongside a team that’s as bold as it is thoughtful—come swim with us.
