An AI platform for underwriting, claims, and insurance decision automation. As Engineering Lead for the Backend Platform, you will spend the majority of your time writing production
Alongside that, you will provide technical direction and mentorship to 2–5 backend engineers - reviewing
their code with architectural depth, leading design sessions, and helping them grow.
Own architecture decisions for backend platform components end-to-end - from design through

deployment, monitoring, and iteration. the call.
~ Design and implement event-driven insurance workflows - claims processing pipelines, underwriting

decision loops, policy lifecycle state machines - with write-path reliability as the non-negotiable
Evaluate when not to over-engineer and make that call in code.
~ Lead schema evolution strategy for long-lived insurance data: additive-only changes,

rollout planning.




~ distributed transaction consistency, performance degradation at scale, data integrity across service
Write production-quality Java/Spring Boot code at a level that sets the bar for the engineers around

Integrate AI capabilities into the insurance platform backend - LLM-powered claim assessment,

RAG-based policy retrieval, agentic underwriting workflows - wherever the product roadmap demands
