Founding Engineer/Senior Software Engineer

• Architect and build core systems (backend, APIs, data models)
• Design AI-powered workflows that replace manual operations
• Integrate with fragmented, unreliable real-world systems (external tools, documents, communication layers)
• Build production-grade automation systems powered by LLMs (reliability, evaluation, and failure handling matter)
• Design and operate asynchronous, event-driven systems (queues, workers, long-running tasks)
• Ship fast - from idea * production in days, not months
• Make foundational technical decisions that define the company

There are no rigid specs. You'll help define what gets built and how.

• 5+ years building production systems
• Strong backend engineering skills - you've built and scaled real systems (we use Python, but care more about depth than specific frameworks)
• Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or similar)
• Experience building systems from scratch
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and moving quickly
• Experience with modern AI tooling (LLMs, RAG, agent frameworks) and an understanding of making them reliable in production (evaluation, structured outputs, failure handling)
• Strong systems thinking - you think beyond individual features
• Product intuition - you care about what gets built, not just how

Bonus:

• Experience with voice, email, or messaging systems
• Familiarity with fintech, insurance, or regulated environments

We care more about how you think and build than specific tools.

Technical Stack

Python (Django/DRF, FastAPI), React/TypeScript, PostgreSQL, Redis, Celery, AWS, Gemini/OpenAI/Anthropic APIs, Pydantic AI/LangChain, Docker

You don't need experience with everything here, but you should be comfortable working in production systems and picking up new tools quickly.

We're building an AI-native insurance services starting with the insurance brokerage. This isn't about incremental improvement. We're rethinking how insurance is bought, sold, and operated - using automation, data, and AI from the ground up. Small team, high ownership, fast pace, venture-backed and pre series A. This role is for someone who wants to take real ownership, move quickly, and build systems that matter., You'd be joining the founding technical team, with direct input into what gets built and how. The people who join now will shape the company in ways that won't be possible later. Why this role? * You'll be one of the first engineers - your decisions will shape the company * Direct access to founders, no layers * Real problems, not toy demos * A massive, outdated industry ready to be rebuilt
