Our team is around 20 people primarily based in London. We are looking for engineers who thrive in fast-moving environments and raise the pace and quality of execution. You will help build what we believe will become one of the largest data platforms in the insurance industry alongside a sophisticated digital platform supporting renewal strategy risk insight and better client outcomes.
This is a hybrid role primarily based in London aimed at mid-to-senior engineers who canoperateindependently from day one and work closely with product business and technical leaders though exceptional early-career candidates will also be considered. We are looking for a forward-deployed AI-fluent engineer with strong judgment: someone who can work directly with users quickly get to the heart of a problem and turn it into a practical technical solution. You should be excited by the AI frontier testing new models tools and workflowsearlyand applying the ones that create real value.
