Solstice Innovations, Inc. has revealed that it is bolstering its technology leadership team to meet the growing demand for the next generation of P&C insurance Core Systems.
The Seattle-based insurer has welcomed Joe Cooper in the role of Chief Technology Officer (CTO), and have tasked him with scaling both the product and delivery capabilities of the firm.
Cooper will also take the reins of the Solstice Equinox™ project, as it looks to expand amidst the growing market pressures.
A seasoned professional, he began his tenure in the P&C insurance sector 35 years ago, with the Florida Insurance Department before moving on to assume a senior technology management role at a Florida-based insurance services firm.
He then spent time helping to found BIPT (one of the very first SaaS based Core Insurance Processing systems).
Cooper brings a robust technical background, coupled with extensive experience in personal and commercial lines, enhancing an already formidable technical leadership team.
This team includes co-founders Blake Stout and Mike Monk, the original architects responsible for designing and constructing Equinox™ from the ground up.
Currently, Stout has redirected his efforts towards the establishment of a government contracting office, actively engaged in managing various FEMA contracts.
Simultaneously, Monk will play a crucial role in supporting Cooper’s transition into the CTO role. As he assumes this responsibility, Monk will also take the helm at Eclipse Technology, a sister company to Solstice dedicated to providing tailored software solutions to Solstice’s client base.
Solstice Innovations, Inc. is a Software as a Service (SaaS) company known for its pioneering work in building a next-generation P&C insurance platform and servicing model.
Initially focusing on Homeowners and Flood insurance, Solstice’s cloud-native platform is designed to efficiently handle multiple product lines across all states within the P&C industry. This approach streamlines back-office processes for carriers, catering to companies of all sizes, including carriers and MGAs.
CEO and founder, Travis Pine commented, “All 3 of these individuals are experts in their given disciplines with decades of experience delivering innovative and disruptive technology solutions to the insurance space. Solstice would be lucky to have just one of these leaders, but we now have the ‘trifecta’; with the addition of Joe to our team, we are simply unstoppable. Joe is a wonderful addition to an already seasoned and proven team.”
