Forward Deployed Engineer

• Onboard new insurance and reinsurance customers onto Parsewise, from first data ingestion to first decision-ready output.
• Deploy and configure the platform inside customer environments, integrating with their stacks and workflows.
• Translate messy, real-world underwriting, claims, and broking documents into working Parsewise configurations, often with the customer in the room.
• Flex between go-to-market and deployment: join commercial conversations, scope use cases, run demos and pilots, then build the deployment that proves them out.
• Bring the lessons learned with the customer and build them directly into the product.

Technology changes rapidly, so we value quick learning very highly. You will work across our stack: Python, TypeScript, Terraform, AWS, Vercel, and PostgreSQL, plus the customer systems we integrate into.

What We Value

• Empathy & Collaboration: You are an effective communicator, sharp, and a team player.
• Problem-Solving: You approach challenges with a first-principles mindset and prioritize deep understanding before implementation. A lot of what we build does not have an industry standard to follow.
• Ownership: You are self-motivated and take responsibility for delivering high-quality work without needing oversight. We are a small and growing team, and you will be expected to take ownership.
• Non-conventional thinking/ risk-taking: You are eager to take calculated, smart risks.

What We Are Looking For

• A strong engineering foundation: you can write production-quality code (Python and/or TypeScript), work with APIs and data, and integrate software into a customer's stack.
• Go-to-market skills: You are comfortable in commercial conversations, scoping use cases, and moving a pilot forward.
• Proven ability to ship high-quality work in a dynamic, fast-moving environment.
• A passion for learning and a willingness to dive deep into both technical and domain challenges.
• In-office by default (we’re a fun bunch + snacks), with the option for occasional remote work.
• 2+ years of commercial (re)insurance experience, with real fluency in how underwriting, broking, and claims actually work.
• Network in insurance and reinsurance, especially in the London market, that you can open doors with.

What We Offer

• Compensation: We offer flexible packages (base pay of £80-100k; equity of 0.5-1%).
• Growth: an opportunity to work on state-of-the-art AI with ownership and direct impact on customers and revenue.
• Collaboration: a team of highly curious and motivated people who inspire and challenge each other daily.
• Benefits: "take what you need" PTO, annual company retreats, health benefits, and more to come.
