Job description

Assured is on a mission to modernize insurance. Claims processing (i.e. should we pay this claim?), while often overlooked, is the foundation of the entire industry. It’s currently highly manual, involving phone calls, faxes, and gut instinct, costing tens of billions of dollars a year. We can do better.

At Assured, we provide large insurers with the software solutions they need to win in a modern, technology-driven world. From self-service claim-filing software to backend fraud detection, we’re the engine that powers claims processing for some of the largest insurers in the world.

The challenges we face are deep and diverse, from creating digital experiences that provide comfort and clarity to claimants at their most stressed and vulnerable to orchestrating large-scale ML-driven decision-making on billions of dollars of claims payments, life at Assured is dynamic, collaborative, and rewarding.

We are looking for a Staff SDET (Software Development Engineer in Test) with strong proficiency in TypeScript to join our engineering team.

In this role, you’ll be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining automated test frameworks and tools to ensure the quality and performance of our applications.

• Continuously improve test coverage, reliability, and performance of automation
• Integrate test suites into CI/CD pipelines using tools like GitLab CI/CD, CircleCI, or similar
• Investigate test failures, triage bugs, and identify root causes of defects
• Contribute to the creation of testing strategies, QA best practices, and documentation

You have

• Experience as an SDET or QA Automation Engineer
• Strong proficiency in TypeScript and the overall JavaScript ecosystem
• Experience with test automation tools
• Experience with CI/CD tools and practices
• Solid understanding of SDLC and Agile methodologies
