Software Engineer - Platform

About the role

Design and implement platform infrastructure to support the next generation of insurance systems, taking ownership from problem definition through delivery.

Identify bottlenecks and build solutions that help the team move faster, balancing first-principles thinking with practical judgment about what matters most.

Own problems end-to-end, thinking through scalability, operability, and ongoing metrics—digging deep to understand root causes and optimize for real-world outcomes.

Implement reliability and performance improvements across the stack (infrastructure, deployment, observability).

Iterate on existing platform tooling and services based on feedback from engineering teams.

Collaborate with senior engineers on architectural decisions and technical direction.
