We value engineers that move fast and take ownership. , ideas are built and shipped in days, not months. Our culture is collaborative, curiosity‑driven, and rewards impact.

• Build automation systems that handle complex insurance servicing tasks end‑to‑end (policy endorsements, cancellations, document uploads, reinstatements) or reduce policy cancellations, improve renewals, and ensure users always have the best coverage.
• Fast sprint cycles: ship new automations in 1–2 weeks on average.
• Compose backend business logic that drives automation while respecting complex insurance carrier rules.
• Design backend pipelines that sync customer policy data, deliver timely alerts, and power seamless re‑shopping experiences.
• Optimize and scale our internal tools (e.g., in‑house Docu Sign for servicing) to reduce agent intervention to nearly zero.
• Collaborate closely with product, data, and engineering ops to anticipate churn and improve customer retention.
• Work asynchronously across time zones, with minimal meetings but strong collaboration through Asana and Slack.
• Continuously improve our backend systems, APIs, and microservice architecture.

• Frontend & backend:
  Type Script, Nest.js, Next.js, React, React Native, Expo
• API:
  GraphQL
• Data:
  Postgres, Dynamo
  
  DB, Click House, Redis
• Infrastructure: AWS, microservices, containerized services on ECS/EKS, asynchronous processing on Lambda
• We are refactoring major parts of our code base to simplify old systems, rebuild core flows, and set up the next three years of our platform’s growth. You’ll help build the foundation for that next phase.

• Experience:
  
  At least 5 years full‑stack engineering experience building production‑grade software, ideally with large‑scale distributed systems for a fast‑growing consumer‑facing product.
• Technical strength:
  Strong foundations in data structures, algorithms, and systems design matter more than prior experience with our tech stack.
• Problem solver:
  You enjoy tackling ambiguous problems, breaking them down into actionable code, and iterating quickly.
• Ownership:
  You take responsibility for end‑to‑end outcomes and continuously improve the systems you build.
• Collaboration:
  
  Comfortable working asynchronously with a global team, with excellent communication skills.
• Curiosity + adaptability:
  You love learning, exploring new tools, and stepping outside your comfort zone to understand the bigger picture.
