Jobbeschreibung

Remote working is available but candidates must be on Eastern Timezone either US or Canada.

I'm partnering with a fast-growing, AI-native insurtech platform that connects specialty insurers with the capital behind them. They operate across more than 20 countries, are well backed, and are building small, high-leverage engineering squads designed for the AI era.

They're now hiring a Staff Frontend Engineer into a forward deployed role. This person will sit at the intersection of engineering and customers. You'll work directly with the people using the platform, understand how they actually work, and ship software that changes how they make decisions.

What you'll do

• Work closely with customers to understand their workflows, scope messy problems and turn them into working software
• Build and ship customer-facing applications, integrations and AI-enabled workflows, end to end
• Lead frontend architecture and component design, setting the standard for how UI is built across squads
• Integrate AI capabilities into real customer workflows in reliable, secure and production-ready ways
• Use AI tools throughout your own development process to move faster without compromising quality
• Feed what you learn from customers back into the core product and engineering roadmap

What they're looking for

• Staff-level frontend engineering experience, with deep TypeScript and a strong grasp of the web platform
• Experience building design systems or shared component libraries. Web Components or Lit is a real plus.
• Enough backend capability (Node.js, APIs, PostgreSQL, AWS) to be self-sufficient
• Experience in a customer-facing engineering role, such as forward deployed, solutions or customer engineering, consulting, or enterprise B2B product work
• Hands-on experience building AI or LLM features into production products, not just using AI coding tools
• Strong communication skills and confidence with non-technical stakeholders
• Insurance, fintech or other regulated B2B experience is a bonus, not a requirement

Why it's worth a conversation

• Genuine ownership, with short feedback loops and trust to make consequential decisions
• AI taken seriously, both in how software is built and in what gets delivered to customers
• Remote-first, working with a talented global team
• Visible impact on an industry that's overdue for modernisation
