Job description

Overview of the role We’re on a mission to modernize insurance, making it simpler, more accessible, and customer‑first. The insurance industry is a $1T market that’s remained largely untouched by the digital revolution, and PolicyMe is here to change that. As a remote‑first, Toronto‑based startup with big ambitions, we’re building the future of insurance in Canada and beyond. We're building a groundbreaking new product line that will transform the insurance broker experience through AI and machine learning. As an AI-Driven Full Stack Engineer, you'll be part of a team charting new territory - designing and implementing intelligent systems that automate manual processes and unlock powerful data‑driven insights.

You will work across the stack, contributing to front end, back end, and AI/ML initiatives, while also participating in architecture discussions, release planning, and company‑wide engineering initiatives. Our core stack includes Python, React, Redux, PostgreSQL, n8n, LangChain/LangGraph and AWS, and we are always open to adopting new tools and technologies that help us deliver better results.

What you'll be doing:

• Leading the design and development of full stack features for our AI‑powered web application using Python, React, Redux, PostgreSQL, and AWS
• Defining the technical vision and architectural principles for AI/ML systems
• Driving innovation by researching and prototyping cutting‑edge AI technologies
• Ensuring security, scalability, and observability best practices across cloud architecture
• Work within a cross‑functional environment partnering closely with product, design, and business teams to communicate technical designs/strategies
• Serve as a role model for engineering standards and bring consistency across systems and processes while mentoring junior and intermediate engineers
• Help drive sound technical decision‑making across ambiguous, system‑spanning problems

What we are looking for:

• A strong technical background with 5+ years of experience in fullstack web development and production AI/ML systems
• Deep expertise in AI/ML domains like NLP, computer vision, recommendation engines etc.
• Proficiency with cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, microservices
• Proven ability to architect and lead end‑to‑end AI projects, including security best practices
• Exceptional technical communication and knowledge sharing abilities
• Track record of managing ambiguity and delivering innovative solutions
• An appreciation for fast‑paced startup environments and experience building foundational systems
• Demonstrated ability to take ambiguous technical challenges and drive them to resolution with cross‑functional teams
• Strong development skills in React, Python, and Node, or equivalent technologies with the ability to ramp up quickly

Why join us:

• Generous PTO
• 20 vacation days
• A comprehensive benefits plan with premiums paid in full by PolicyMe
• Investment in your professional development, including an L&D budget, AI tooling budget, performance reviews twice a year and ongoing feedback to ensure you reach your highest potential
• An extremely high performing, low‑ego, remote‑first team that is truly disrupting an old industry
• Option to work from home or our Toronto‑based office (bonus: we cover the costs to bring all our employees in‑person twice a year for experiential socials!)
• Access to stock options based on performance
• Compensation: The total target cash compensation for this role is $160,000 - $195,000 CAD , based on experience. We’ll walk through the details together during the interview.
