The Role

We’re hiring a Software Engineer to build the core infrastructure behind underwriting, pricing, and policy workflows. This is high-leverage work. The systems you build will directly impact revenue, loss ratios, and how we scale.

You’ll work closely with engineers, actuaries, and underwriters to turn messy real-world logic into clean, durable systems. A lot of what we do starts in Excel and ends in production code. We care deeply about correctness, clarity, and speed.

This is an ownership-heavy role. You’ll be expected to reason from first principles, ship quickly, and improve things that feel broken.

What You’ll Do

• Build and own backend systems that power pricing models, underwriting workflows, and policy lifecycle infrastructure

• Translate complex actuarial and underwriting logic into maintainable, production-grade services

• Improve the performance and reliability of our core rating and decision systems

• Contribute to architectural decisions that set the foundation for how we scale

• Work directly with domain experts to define the right abstractions, not just implement tickets

• Hold a high bar for code quality, simplicity, and long-term maintainability

What We’re Looking For

• 4+ years of professional software engineering experience

• Strong backend experience in TypeScript, Python, or similar

• Experience designing APIs and working with data-heavy systems

• Comfort operating in ambiguous, high-responsibility environments

• A bias toward ownership and shipping

• Good judgment – knowing when to move fast and when to slow down

You’ll Likely Thrive Here If

• You like building foundational systems, not surface-level features

• You enjoy working at the intersection of business logic and engineering

• You want your work to directly impact company outcomes

• You prefer small teams, high standards, and real accountability

• You care about building something durable

Why Join

We’re still early. The decisions we make now will shape the company for years. If you want to build core infrastructure, work closely with domain experts, and help modernize a massive industry, this is a rare opportunity to do it at the right stage.
