Job Description

About Us

US-based insurtech startup helping consumers compare insurance and save money — similar to Jerry.ai. Our MVP is live and we're looking for a senior developer to join our small founding team in Bohol and build out the full product.

This is not a BPO or outsourcing role. You'll work directly with the founder, make real architecture decisions, and build the core product. If you want to be an early employee at a startup rather than a cog in an agency, this is for you.

What You'll Build

• Insurance quote comparison engine with carrier API integrations
• User onboarding and policy management flows
• Cross-platform mobile app (iOS + Android via Capacitor)
• Push notifications, real-time alerts, and user dashboard
• Payment processing and checkout flows
• Next.js (our core framework)
• React / TypeScript
• Capacitor (iOS and Android builds)
• PostgreSQL (or similar relational DB)
• REST APIs / third-party integrations
• AWS or Vercel for deployment

Requirements

• 3+ years of professional experience with React/Next.js
• Experience building and deploying mobile apps (Capacitor, React Native, or Ionic)
• Strong understanding of API design and third-party integrations
• Able to work independently — you\'ll own features end-to-end
• Based in Bohol OR willing to relocate to Bohol (relocation support available)
• Comfortable working US night shift hours long-term
• Strong English communication (written and verbal)

Nice to Have

• Experience in insurance, fintech, or any regulated industry
• Previous experience at a startup or small team
• CI/CD pipeline setup experience
• Experience with AI/ML integrations (chatbots, recommendation engines)
• Previous night shift / US timezone work experience

What We Offer

• $1,500 - $2,500/month USD paid via Wise (twice monthly, 1st and 15th)
• Night differential already included in the salary range
• Office space provided in Panglao (optional — you can work from home too)
• Meal allowance (PHP 150-200 per shift)
• Transport allowance (PHP 200-300 per shift)
• Equipment provided (laptop)
• Direct access to the founder — no layers of management
• You're building the product, not maintaining someone else's code

If the position requires you to work overseas, please be vigilant and beware of fraud.

If you encounter an employer who has the following actions during your job search, please report it immediately

• withholds your ID,
• requires you to provide a guarantee or collects property,
• forces you to invest or raise funds,
• collects illicit benefits,
• or other illegal situations.
