Job description

About Us

Fidamy is a leading embedded insurance operator, seamlessly integrating innovative non-life insurance products into our partners’ digital and physical customer journeys. Our mission is to help partners generate new revenue streams and build lasting customer loyalty by making insurance simple, accessible, and impactful.

Our engineering team is responsible for building and maintaining the robust infrastructure that powers these embedded insurance solutions. We enable our partners to quickly and reliably integrate insurance offerings through clean, secure integrations and highly reliable production systems.

Solving complex technical challenges in a regulated, data-heavy market dominated by legacy systems is what makes our work both demanding and rewarding. By making insurance integration fast, secure, and developer-friendly, we unlock enormous market potential.

Backed by NN Ventures, Fidamy operates as a high-trust, close-knit engineering team. Our engineers take broad ownership, influence product direction, and create software designed for scale and longevity.

Why Now?

Embedded insurance is at a pivotal point: projected to grow from 1% to 16% of global insurance spend by 2032—a $3 trillion opportunity. Fidamy is moving fast to play a significant role in this transformation. If you are seeking a high-impact engineering role in a scaling startup, now is the time to join us.

What You’ll Do

• Build and deliver features across the stack: working on both partner and customer journeys, backend services, and insurance/payment integrations.

• Act as the first technical contact during application incidents—whether caused by our services or partner systems—and maintain the dashboards, runbooks, and tools to resolve issues quickly.

• Ensure transactional accuracy for crucial flows (pricing, payment, policy issuance) with robust end-to-end testing.

• Support commercial deals: respond to technical questions from prospects, set up sandboxes, and assist with integrations.

• Own deliverables end-to-end: from design and implementation through deployment, monitoring, and ongoing iteration.

• Leverage AI-driven development tools (including coding agents), write clear specifications and tests, and review outputs with rigor.

• Shape the technical roadmap, making pragmatic trade-offs and driving up engineering standards through code reviews.

Our tech stack

• AI-driven development: Claude Code and coding agents as standard tooling

• Ways of working: test-driven development by default (failing test first), architecture decision records, everything reviewed, shipped continuously

• Application: React, Vite, Tailwind, Node.js (TypeScript), Python

• Data stores: PostgreSQL, S3, NoSQL

• Cloud & Infrastructure: AWS, Terraform

• Observability: OpenTelemetry, with managed tracing and alerting on top

• Data & AI: Databricks, AWS Bedrock

Our Culture

• Move the Needle: Focus on systems and features with real partner and customer impact.

• Master Your Craft: Prioritize deep focus for quality work, encourage knowledge sharing and tech exploration.

• Customer Obsession: Work closely with partners to deeply understand and solve their technical challenges.

• Be Different: Challenge traditional insurance tech while ensuring enterprise-grade reliability.

• Thrive Together: Foster fast-paced innovation balanced with thoughtful execution and collaboration.

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience building and shipping production systems using TypeScript and React, with confidence across the stack.

• Test-driven development practitioner, using TDD as a design and quality tool, building systems around domain models, not just database schemas.

• Demonstrated ownership of outcomes end-to-end, not just tickets—can show tangible results.

• Hands-on in incident response, comfortable handling support queries and resolving system issues independently.

• Daily practitioner of AI-driven development: familiar with coding agents, specifications, and iterative refinement.

• Experience managing AWS-based systems and interpreting production telemetry.

• Entrepreneurial and pragmatic: proactively picks up responsibilities, collaborates cross-functionally, and creates runbooks and documentation as needed.

• Disciplined about change management—especially where money, personal data, and compliance are concerned.

• Strong communicator, collaborative team player, and able to work directly with partners.

• Willingness to work from our Amsterdam office at least two days per week.

Why Join Us

• Competitive compensation

• Brand new MacBook Pro and equipment

• Paid access to Claude Code and in-house AI agent tools for faster, safer shipping

• Flexible hybrid work (2-3 days in office)

• Visa sponsorship available (including transfer of Dutch visa; no relocation support)
