Job description

We are a founder-led Insurtech business building a suite of in-house, mission-critical platforms across insurance claims, legal case management, underwriting, and data-driven decision support.

We are looking for a skilled Software Engineer with a strong front-end focus to join our development team and help shape the next phase of our products. You will work on the design and development of user-facing applications, including dashboards, workflows, and internal tools, ensuring they are intuitive, performant, and scalable.

The role involves close collaboration with back-end engineers, AI and data specialists, and operational stakeholders to translate complex business processes into clear, usable software. You’ll have meaningful input into how our platforms evolve, contributing to architectural discussions, UX improvements, and the practical application of automation and AI across the business.

This is a hands-on role suited to someone who enjoys ownership, variety, and building real products that are actively used in a regulated, real-world environment.

What you’ll be doing

• Design, develop, and implement enhancements and new features for in-house business management software, aligning with ISO 9001, ISO 17020, ISO 17024, and ISO 17025 quality management systems.
• Create a suite of integrated AI-based solutions that collects and analyses parameters and quantitative data.
• Map out and integrate business processes into the software system.
• Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams such as client partnership directors and operational managers to understand end-user requirements and translate them into leading solutions.
• Continuously assess and enhance the performance, security, and scalability of all developed applications.
• Contribute to software architectural discussions and decisions.
• Maintain thorough documentation for the codebase and update as necessary.
• Provide valuable insights to the Chief Technical Officer on software solutions to improve operational efficiencies.
• Develop simple training programs and detailed manuals for the use of our software systems.

What We’re Looking For

• Minimum of 3 years of experience in software development.
• Back-end leaning, but still relevant context for FE:
• Proven expertise in C# and .NET Framework.
• Familiarity with Artificial Intelligence software development.
• Hands-on experience with Microsoft Azure.
• Strong understanding of blockchain technology.
• Proficient in data collection and analysis for AI solutions.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills

What we offer:

• Additional annual leave with service, plus additional paid day leave for your birthday.
• Wellbeing packaged including free PT sessions, private medical insurance & health cash back plan.
• Part-funded or fully-funded professional qualifications, with length of service.
• Free parking, pension, full time hours of 35 hours a week.
