Job description

QuoteWell is building a modern commercial insurance brokerage by combining technology with deep domain expertise. A key part of our vision is an AI assistant powered by emerging LLM techniques that helps brokers anticipate and automate tasks, making their workflows faster, smarter, and more intuitive.

We’re looking for an experienced engineer who wants to shape not just our technology, but also our product direction and business outcomes.

What You’ll Do

• Build impactful products: Own and deliver features in our all-TypeScript stack (React + Node).

• Shape product direction: Partner with Product, Design, and Data to define problems, break them down into incremental solutions, and validate with users.

• Leverage AI in practice: Deliver innovative AI-driven agentic solutions for our insurance experts, designed for a future MCP-driven world.

• Model complex data: Represent insurance data and relationships in intuitive, user-friendly tools that improve decision-making.

• Collaborate and grow: Work in a remote-first, flexible, and accountable engineering culture while learning from teammates (and maybe a bit about insurance too).

What You’ll Bring

• Technical depth: Strong experience with TypeScript, React, and Node (or a very similar stack), and a history of shipping production code.

• Product impact: A track record of influencing product and business direction through engineering insights.

• AI curiosity: Familiarity with or interest in applied AI/LLM techniques and how they can power real products.

• Collaborative skills: Ability to work across the full product lifecycle—specifying features, testing, iterating, and validating with users.

• Generalist mindset: Willingness to learn new technologies and adapt to what the business needs most.

• Flexibility to connect in person: Willingness to travel occasionally to Austin or team offsites.

Location: Austin, TX or Hybrid Remote. Our primary hub is located in Austin, TX, and we have remote employees across the United States. We offer flexible co-working arrangements in locations with multiple engineers.

• Competitive salaries + equity in the company

• Medical, Dental, and Vision healthcare benefits + FSA and HSA options

• Flexible vacation policy to recharge and live life

• Paid membership to One Medical for employees, spouses / domestic partners, and dependents

• Company-sponsored 401K plan (Roth & Traditional)

• Paid parental leave, generous family forming benefits and up to $5,000 of reimbursements through Carrot

• Up to $1,000 in home office reimbursements to build a productive space to work remotely

• An opportunity to work on solutions that are redefining the future of commercial insurance
