Company mission
To build a simplified digital insurance experience that better serves small businesses.
Role
Who you are
- At least 5 years of proven experience in Backend development. Java/Kotlin or similar languages (Python, .NET)
- A B.Sc. in Computer Science or equivalent is a must
- Excellent knowledge and understanding of OOP concepts and best practices
- Hands-on development of highly distributed, cloud-based environments - an advantage. We work with AWS, but any cloud experience is a plus
- Experience working with Relational Databases and good SQL skills
- Adaptable, with a passion for quickly learning new technologies and working effectively in a dynamic environment
- Good interpersonal and communication skills
What the job involves
- Our Backend Software Engineer can expect to work with the latest backend technologies and programming languages
- We’re big fans of server-side Kotlin, and we produce clean, testable code fast and push it into production several times a day via our CI / CD pipeline
- You will work closely with other functional areas in the company—product, Marketing, and Front-end engineers—to rapidly iterate on our product and find the best solutions to our challenges
- You will take ownership of features – from inception through design and coding, eventually bringing your feature to production at a high level of quality and test coverage
Our take
Next Insurance serves small businesses by making it much simpler to take out an insurance policy without the headache associated with many providers. To begin trading any business needs to have some sort of insurance policy in place, traditional offerings can take weeks, often requiring tedious paperwork.
Next Insurance has opted to use AI, machine learning and transparent language to make the process much simpler, and it can take just five to ten minutes for customers to obtain a package that suits them.
While Next Insurance is facing established insurance companies such as Hiscox and State Farm, its partnership with Amazon Business Prime to insure its members in a move to target traditionally underserved insurance customers and more recently with LegalZoom, to simplify the insurance process, as well as its nearly half a million customers has the company well set to remain major player in the space.
