Join a small, product-focused team as its first full-time engineering hire. You will help shape the technical direction of an early-stage insurance technology company, building AI agent systems and product capabilities that address meaningful customer needs.
What You'll Do

- Experience building AI agents or similar AI systems, ideally with AI or machine learning systems in production.
- Ability to own product decisions and deliver end-to-end work with both product and platform considerations.
- Strong technical fundamentals, with experience at an established company or an early-stage startup; startup experience can be an alternative to a traditional academic background.
- Insurance or financial services experience is helpful.
- Comfort working independently and contributing across a broad engineering scope.
