What the job involves
- This position is responsible for the availability, performance and efficiency of all Assurance services, and work in close collaboration with all engineering teams to create a reliable and easy-to-use AWS infrastructure for application services
- The ideal candidate has a good understanding of modern cloud-based architecture, and practical experience defining infrastructure in the fast-pacing environment

Our take
Assurance believes in the symbiosis between humans and machines and has built the most advanced technology and data science systems to support the human touch. It uses these systems to match prospective customers with custom health, life, Medicare, and auto insurance plans that can be bought online or through an agent.
In 2019, Prudential Financial acquired Assurance, a deal worth $2.35B, which was expected to significantly expand the market for both companies. Together, the companies have been creating a new end-to-end engagement model to better serve their respective customers
However, it was recently reported that this deal did not live up to Prudential’s expectations, having missed financial targets. Regardless, Assurance recently appointed a new CEO, who the company believes will make strides in its mission.
