WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR Required: - 3+ years of professional software development experience with TypeScript and Python in production environments. - Hands-on experience with AWS, Docker, and PostgreSQL in production. - Proven ability to design and implement APIs, data models, and integrations with external systems (e.g., claims management systems or similar enterprise platforms). - Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable collaborating directly with customers in a forward-deployed capacity. - Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, early-stage startup environment. - Must be authorized to work in the United States (US citizen or valid work visa). Visa sponsorship is not available. - Must be able to work from within the United States. Nice to Have: - Prior experience in insurtech, healthtech, or other regulated industries. - Familiarity with voice AI, LLM orchestration, or agentic workflow systems. - Experience at an early-stage startup or in a founding engineering role.
