Job summary

Advocate Technologies seeks a Product Engineer to lead a squad owning a portion of our platform. You will own features end-to-end—from scope to delivery—with unusual latitude on how they are built.

You will turn dense insurance data into interfaces used daily by brokers, lenders, and underwriters, collaborating across squads with strong product judgment and a bias toward shipping. You’ll leverage AI tools to scale output and help define what data or endpoints are needed, ensuring progress

Qualifications

• 2+ years building production web applications.
• Advanced, daily use of AI tools (Codex, Claude Code, agentic workflows).
• Comfort working across the development stack.
• Experience with data-heavy products: dashboards, analytics tools, pricing platforms, internal tools with real complexity.
• Strong product instinct and a bias toward shipping.
• High autonomy in a small team.
• Hybrid and remote working options available.

Responsibilities

• Own features end to end, from scope through build, deploy, and iterate.
• Work across the stack when the problem requires it (interface, API surface, data model, background jobs).
• Turn dense, structured insurance data into interfaces for brokers, lenders, or underwriters.
• Define dependencies and raise blockers early.
• Use AI tooling aggressively to ship at scale.
• Contribute to eval and benchmarking to decide model trust for customer data.
• Bring product judgment to push for simpler, more impactful solutions.

Job description

About the role

Advocate’s technical staff is primarily comprised of Product Engineers. Our Product Engineers are the core builders at Advocate and take a problem from a rough thesis to something in production that customers use daily.

Product Engineers are leaders at Advocate. Each Product Engineer is responsible for a squad that owns part of our platform: evals and benchmarks, agent systems, the data layer, reporting, traded products. We will place you as a leader of one of these squads, where your instincts are strongest.

We do not have Product Managers or QA. Our organization is comprised of senior, empowered Product Engineers, Product Designers and our Infra/Platform team. As such this is not a ticket‑taking role. You will be handed problems, not specs, and you will be expected to have an opinion about the answer and take the solution to delivery. Alongside this radical ownership comes freedom to solve for outcomes.

What you do

• Own features end to end, from scope through build, deploy, and iterate, with unusual latitude on how they get built.
• Work across the stack when the problem requires it: interface, API surface, data model, background jobs.
• Turn dense, structured insurance data into interfaces a broker, lender, or underwriter reaches for every day.
• Define what your work needs from adjacent squads, whether that is data captured, an endpoint exposed, or a permission scoped, and raise the dependency before it becomes a blocker.
• Use AI tooling aggressively as leverage. We expect engineers here to ship at a volume that only makes sense with agents in the loop.
• Contribute to the eval and benchmarking work that decides which models we trust with customer data, and where our own harness beats a raw model call.
• Bring product judgment: push back on requirements that don’t hold up, propose the simpler version, kill the feature that isn’t earning its keep.

What success looks like

• 30 days: You understand the data model and the product surface, and you’re shipping meaningful contributions to production.
• 90 days: You independently own features end to end, from identifying the dependency to deploying the customer‑facing result.
• 6 months: You’re the person who sees the gap before it slows us down, whether that is a bottleneck in the interface, a missing pipeline, or a feature the market is asking for that isn’t on the roadmap yet.

Your qualifications

• 2+ years building production web applications. This role can be a fit for someone with 2 years or 15 years of experience. What matters is the ability to think about a problem and ship to completion.
• Advanced, daily use of AI tools (Codex, Claude Code, agentic workflows)
• Comfort working across the development stack
• Experience with data‑heavy products: dashboards, analytics tools, pricing platforms, internal tools with real complexity
• Strong product instinct and a bias toward shipping. Desire to solve product problems.
• High autonomy in a small team. You don’t need process to make progress
• Hybrid and remote working options available

Nice to have

• Exposure to insurance, financial services, or another regulated, data‑dense industry
• Experience with real‑time data, index, or benchmark products
• Early‑stage experience where you wore several hats at once
• Interest in market structure and pricing transparency

What we offer

• Salary Range: $115,000 – $190,000 USD
• Equity / stock options, granted in addition to base salary
• Health & wellness: standard health benefits
• Work‑from‑home stipend
• Learning & development budget + team events
• Mentorship from industry leaders (ex‑Goldman Sachs, Apollo, Shopify, Productboard, and more)
