Job description

Our client is a leading US-based Managing General Agent (MGA) and specialty insurer. They provide industry-tailored insurance programs and wholesale brokerage solutions across niche commercial markets

About the employer

Our client is a leading US-based Managing General Agent (MGA) and specialty insurance provider. They offer industry-tailored insurance programs and wholesale brokerage solutions across niche commercial sectors through a network of trusted carriers.

They are building a modern core platform to replace legacy system.

What will you work on?

• Turn the prototype into production React, keeping the design system clean as it grows

• Build complex forms: a quote form whose questions change by program and state, with validation, prefill and saved progress

• Build dense data screens: policy records, billing schedules, queues and tables that underwriters live in all day

• Build three views of one app: the agent portal, the staff workspace and the insured’s self-service pages

• Work with the backend team on API contracts, and take client feedback after each demo straight into the next build

What skills and experience are we looking for?

• 5+ years of frontend engineering, 3+ of them in React and TypeScript

• Comfortable with Vite, React Router, Tailwind and shadcn/ui (or a similar component library)

• You’ve built large forms and data-heavy business apps, not only marketing sites

• Good UI/UX judgment. You notice when spacing, states or copy are off, and you fix them

• Experience consuming REST APIs and handling loading, error and empty states properly

• You use AI coding tools every day and know where they go wrong

• Clear spoken and written English

• Insurance or fintech experience is a plus

Featured benefits

• Career Growth
• Work with Modern Tech
• Remote-Friendly Flexibility
• International Experience
• Pathway to U.S. Market Opportunities
• Stable, Growing Industry

Other requirements

• You can take a design and ship it close to pixel-perfect without hand-holding

• You ask questions when a screen doesn’t make sense, instead of building it anyway

• You care about the people using the app eight hours a day
