We’re on a mission to modernize insurance, making it simpler, more accessible, and customer-first. The insurance industry is a $1T market that’s remained largely untouched by the digital revolution, and Policy Me is here to change that. As a remote-first, Toronto-based startup with big ambitions, we’re building the future of insurance in Canada and beyond.

We're building a groundbreaking new product line that will transform the insurance broker experience through AI and machine learning. As an AI-Driven Full Stack Engineer, you'll be part of a team charting new territory - designing and implementing intelligent systems that automate manual processes and unlock powerful data-driven insights.

You will work across the stack, contributing to front end, back end, and AI/ML initiatives, while also participating in architecture discussions, release planning, and company-wide engineering initiatives. Our core stack includes Python, React, Redux, PostgreSQL, n8n, Lang Chain/Lang Graph and AWS, and we are always open to adopting new tools and technologies that help us deliver better results.

What you'll be doing:

- Develop full stack features for our AI-powered web application using Python, React, Redux, PostgreSQL and AWS
- Integrate AI models and APIs for tasks like document processing, data extraction, recommendation engines etc.

- Work closely with Sr. Engineers experienced in AI to seamlessly integrate models into production
- Stay current on emerging AI technologies/frameworks and explore new applications
- Build scalable, reliable backend services to fuel our AI workflows
- Create intuitive user experiences that surface AI-powered capabilities
- Participate in architecture planning, code reviews, and ideation sessions
- Take ownership of feature development end-to-end (once ramped up), coordinating with QA and other teams
- Engage in cross-team communication to help unblock dependencies and improve release flow
- Share ideas during quarterly planning to help shape what we build next
- Participate in company-wide initiatives such as hackathons, engineering guilds, and AI tooling experiments

What we are looking for:

- Strong full-stack development skills with the ability to work across backend and frontend using Python, React, Redux, PostgreSQL, and AWS
- Familiarity with AI/ML concepts from coursework, side projects, or work experience
- Passion for building intelligent applications that solve real-world problems
- Eagerness to learn, embrace ambiguity, and continually upskill in a rapidly evolving space
- Hands-on experience or projects interacting with AI APIs/models (e.g. prompt engineering)- Self-starter with a career-driven mindset who thrives in an environment with autonomy and accountability
- Collaborative team player with low ego who is open to feedback and eager to help others
- Detail-oriented approach to problem-solving, especially in complex domains

Why join us:

- Generous PTO - 20 vacation days- A comprehensive benefits plan with premiums paid in full by Policy Me
- Investment in your professional development, including an L&D budget, AI tooling budget, performance reviews twice a year and ongoing feedback to ensure you reach your highest potential
- An extremely high performing, low-ego, remote-first team that is truly disrupting an old industry
- Option to work from home or our Toronto-based office (bonus: we cover the costs to bring all our employees in-person twice a year for experiential socials!)- Access to stock options based on performance
