AI Engineer

Circle — "Circle picks up calls, sends emails, and fills portals while you close."

Insurance runs on people doing heroic amounts of manual work. We're changing that.

At Circle, we're bringing the world's most advanced AI into insurance brokerages and automating 90% of the manual work that insurance brokers do—from the mind‑numbing, error‑prone steps to the multi‑system swivel‑chair tasks that slow everything down. The result: quotes go out faster, renewals run themselves, and producers get their day back.

We're a small, product‑obsessed team shipping fast with real customers. You'll work directly with the founders, own outcomes, and see your code move the industry forward in weeks—not quarters.

• Build and extend our agent orchestration system (task queues, container management, state persistence)
• Ship full‑stack features across our Next.js dashboard and Node.js/Express API
• Integrate with AMS platforms (Vertafore, Hawk Soft, Atlas) via SOAP/REST APIs
• Design reliable systems: retries, idempotency, observability, and graceful failure handling
• Collaborate directly with customers to understand workflows and translate them into automation

• Shadow producers and account managers, capture a high‑friction workflow, and ship a first pass that cuts cycle time by 30–50%
• Stand up metrics that let customers see time saved and errors avoided

• Production experience:
  You've shipped and maintained systems handling real traffic
• Full‑stack fluency:
  Type Script, React/Next.js, Node.js, Python—you're comfortable across the stack
• Systems thinking:
  You understand distributed systems, queues, containers, and API design
• Pragmatic mindset:
  You ship incrementally, debug ruthlessly, and know when 'good enough' is right
• Experience with LLMs, agent frameworks, or AI application development
• Familiarity with insurance or other regulated industries

• Small team, big ownership:
  You'll make architectural calls and set quality bars.
• Ship fast, then harden
• First demo in days, then product ionize with reliability and observability.
• In‑Person in SF:
  We work 6 days a week in our SF office with coffee, snacks, and a great community.
