The position offers the opportunity to work across the entire stack, contributing to frontend interfaces, backend services, and machine learning-driven features. You will play a key role in shaping architecture, technical standards, and scalable cloud infrastructure while collaborating closely with product and design teams. This is a high-impact role where experimentation, ownership, and technical leadership are essential. You will also help drive innovation by exploring emerging AI technologies and translating them into production-ready solutions. The environment is collaborative, low-ego, and focused on building modern, scalable systems that transform a traditional industry.

In this role, you will lead the design and development of end-to-end full-stack features while contributing to the evolution of AI-powered systems that automate and enhance insurance workflows. You will help define technical direction, ensure architectural consistency, and support the delivery of scalable and intelligent products.

• Lead the development of full-stack features using Python, React, Redux, PostgreSQL, Node.js, and AWS.
• Design and evolve the technical architecture for AI/ML-powered systems and web applications.
• Research, prototype, and implement cutting-edge AI technologies to improve product capabilities.
• Ensure system scalability, security, reliability, and observability across cloud-based infrastructure.
• Collaborate closely with product, design, and business stakeholders to translate requirements into technical solutions.
• Mentor junior and intermediate engineers while promoting engineering best practices and consistency across teams.
• Contribute to architectural decisions and help resolve complex, cross-functional technical challenges.

Requirements

This role requires a strong full-stack engineering background combined with hands-on experience in AI/ML systems and the ability to operate effectively in fast-paced, ambiguous environments.

• 5+ years of experience in full-stack software development and production AI/ML systems.
