- Architect scalable services that process thousands of insurance workflows daily

- Deep experience building products on modern stacks, such as TypeScript, React/Next.js, Python, or similar
- Experience designing, operating, and debugging systems in production
- Experience building with LLMs, agent frameworks, or AI-native products — side projects count
- Solid understanding of relational databases, data modeling, and API design
- Excellent written and verbal communication in English
You don't need to check every box — if most of this resonates, apply.
What we look for
- Creativity — Finding the simple, surprising solution.
- High agency — Bias to act — finding a path through ambiguity instead of waiting for one.
- Ownership — Accountable for outcomes, not just outputs.
- Craft — Love for building carefully crafted products for users.
Nice to have
- Background in insurance, fintech, or other regulated industries
- Previous early-stage startup experience (Series A or earlier)
