Job description

Insurance is a numbers business, and most of those numbers are harder to trust than they look. You would lead the team that defines the numbers Insify runs on, from the event a customer fires on our website to the report a risk carrier audits months later.About the RoleYou would lead our Data & Analytics team of 3-4 engineers end to end: ingestion, the warehouse and its models, the metric layer, and the analysis and reporting built on top of it. It is a small team with a big surface, so there is nowhere to hide and nothing you can't reach.We are deliberately not splitting data engineering from analytics. At our size the hard problems sit in the handover between the two, and we want one person who enjoys that whole puzzle.The team serves four groups with genuinely different needs. Growth wants hourly to daily signals and can live with approximately right. Carrier reporting and corporate finance are calendar-locked and need numbers that reconcile and survive an audit months later. Actuarial needs depth and lineage over speed. Prioritising here is arbitration between things that fail in different ways, and the arbitration is yours.It's a hands-on role. You can open the warehouse and read the models, you review a new data model before it ships, and your team trusts your technical judgement because you still use it. The job is still the team: its own game, its communication, and each person in it. When something slips, hands-on work is the first thing that yields.What you'll be doingLeading a team of 3-4 data engineers and analysts end to end: what it builds, how it runs in production, and who you hire and grow to get thereRunning discovery with the teams we serve: understanding what they need from data, and bringing the platform and datasets that enable themOwning the trade-offs between Growth, carrier reporting, finance and actuarial: deciding what the team works on, driving alignment with key partners across other teams, and saying no when the answer is noMaking the platform scale: a new country, carrier or product should mean configuration and reused models, and recurring manual work, like carrier reporting and cash reconciliation, should turn into automationBringing engineering excellence to how the team works: data contracts with product teams, testing in CI, alerts that get resolved, a way to try changes before they hit productionChallenging our ideas and bringing your own. We encourage each other to act this way, so you can expect the same from othersWhat you'll needYou've managed or led a data team before, including hiring, feedback and growing people. It doesn't have to be for long, but it has to be real and you have to want more of itDepth on one side of the data stack and working fluency on the other. You still love shipping, you review your team's work, and they trust your judgement on itA track record of shaping what gets built, not only how: you've turned business problems into data priorities, cut scope, and can show the decisions that followedOwnership & impact instinct - when needed you go beyond your team's boundaries to get to resultsYou get real leverage out of AI in your daily work, and you can say where it helped, and where it hurt. Your team gets that from you: you try new tools and ways of working first, and bring the ones that stickNice to haveExperience with reporting that has to reconcile: bordereaux, revenue, cash, ledgerExperience building B2B products, especially in insurance & fintechExperience working on a product distributed across different country marketsExperience with Databricks, dbt and event tracking (Snowplow or similar)Our stackDatabricks with Unity Catalog, dbt with SQL-based transformation, running on AWS.None of this is a hard requirement, and you don't need to know all of our stack.
