About the Role
Join the continued build-out of a production-grade surplus lines platform — a system already handling real policy processing, compliance workflows, and reporting for an active business. This isn’t a greenfield project or a maintenance gig: you’ll step into a complex, live system, understand its workflows quickly, and independently own solutions across the full stack. If you’re a strong engineer first — comfortable across frontend, backend, and workflow orchestration — this is a long-term engagement with real technical depth.

Design, develop, and maintain full-stack application features across frontend and backend systems
-
Build and support integrations with third-party systems and APIs
-
Develop workflow-driven processes using Temporal
-
Build scalable APIs and backend services using Python
-
Maintain and optimize relational databases using PostgreSQL
-
Develop reporting and analytics capabilities using charting libraries
-
Contribute to AI-enabled features and integrations within the platform
-
Improve CI/CD pipelines and deployment processes
-
Participate in architecture discussions and help shape long-term technical direction
-
Work closely with business and technical stakeholders to deliver production-ready solutions
