Role

Who you are

  • Experienced: This isn't your first rodeo. There's no specific minimum number of years requirement, but we expect you to be able to dive into a complex codebase without too much spin-up. Past experience as a team lead is definitely a plus
  • Builder: You like the product-side of engineering and have thoughtful opinions on what the user experience should be. You're not the type of engineer who wants a fully-fleshed out spec thrown over the wall for you to code
  • Pragmatic: We prioritize impact and delivery. You balance speed and quality, making thoughtful trade-offs to solve problems effectively. You leverage off-the-shelf solutions so we don’t re-invent the wheel but understand when a custom solution is appropriate. You'll be deploying code to production within hours of starting and working with us to iteratively build solutions
  • Specific languages: We don't really care if you've worked in our stack before as long as you're happy to learn it. If you're sharp enough to be on this team, you're sharp enough to learn any language or framework quickly

What the job involves

  • We're hiring a Staff Software Engineer with experience building web applications and service oriented architecture to help us build the core of our stack
  • Build a mobile experience for people to buy insurance that is so simple/intuitive that your least-tech savvy relative with a flip-phone could use it without help
  • Create a claim app that uses phone camera and sensors to document the damage smartly
  • Design rating engines for calculating how much an insurance policy should cost
  • Combine property intelligence APIs sources to flag flood, fire, and vandalism risks

Our take

Steadily is a platform that caters to landlords, offering them a convenient and efficient way to explore and purchase insurance products for their residential properties. By utilizing a digital approach, the company ensures that landlords have access to the most competitive rate available on the market, simplifying the insurance acquisition process.

Having served over 18 million individual rental property owners, Steadily has earned a strong reputation for delivering fast, user-friendly, and affordable landlord insurance solutions. One of its standout features is the automation of certain data entry functions during the insurance quote application, making the experience burdensome for applicants and enabling them to receive quotes in a matter of minutes.

In an industry that has been slower to evolve, Steadily has addressed the growing demand for a more modern experience for insurers. The company's commitment to innovation is further supported by recent funding which has positioned it to expand its offerings and develop new products and services.
