ABOUT INSIFY
We sell a mix of insurance products to small businesses (SME's) in the Netherlands, Germany and France, and we are in the process of scaling into more markets.
Insurance infrastructure is brutal to get right. Every carrier has its own spec, every product its own underwriting rules, every country its own regulatory requirements. Most insurers throw people and process at that complexity - one-off integrations, workarounds on workarounds. We're building it differently: our insurance platform is where we consolidate that complexity, so that launching a new product or market becomes a configuration exercise rather than a rebuild.
Insify is a high-growth scale-up backed by more than €40M from investors like Accel, Munich Re Ventures, and Formula 1 champion Nico Rosberg. In five years we've expanded from the Netherlands into France and Germany. Our mission: become the European leader in AI-powered SME insurance.
About the role
What you'll be doing
- Taking technical leadership within a team, owning the wider picture: what you ship as a team end to end, and the operational health of what we run
- Continuously and relentlessly seeking opportunities to turn new product demands into platform capabilities and features that scale across countries and insurance product lines
- Challenging our ideas and bringing your own. We encourage each other to act this way, so you can expect the same from others
What you'll need
- 5+ years building complex web applications and services, including time spent maintaining and evolving systems you designed yourself
- Ownership & impact instinct - when needed you go beyond your direct stack to get to results, be that data / backend / frontend
- You get real leverage out of AI in your daily work, and you can say where it helped, and where it hurt
- Strong fundamentals in domain-driven design & service oriented architecture
Nice to have
- Experience building B2B products, especially in insurance & fintech
- Experience working on a product distributed across different country markets
- Strong observability instincts. You know where things will break, and can help others learn that too
