About BJAK

The original mission of BJAK is we believe people deserve smarter ways to plan, save and grow their money. This is the origin of our name.

Started in 2019, we built the first mobile-first, insurance platform, enabling insurance to be accessible online by millions in the region. Today, its the leading insurance platform in Southeast Asia.

Today, we are expanding ways to help people in the region — this includes spending, saving, investing, exchanging, travelling, and more. Our mission is help people get more from their money every day.

We have teams working around the world, with over 20 nationalities from our offices and remotely, who truly enjoys their work. We are looking for the most talented and driven people we can find. We are looking for people who work for their passion, not counting hours. Who loves building great next-generation products, not status quo. Who cares about redefining how everyone around us can get the best financial applications, not for an exclusive few.

If you're this person, we'd love to talk to you.

Your Mission

Build modern frontend applications that power BJAK's AI-driven insurance automation platform. You'll create intuitive user experiences that help customers and internal teams manage quotations, policy issuance, claims and other insurance workflows.

What they'll actually do

• Build the multi-step question forms customers fill in to get a quote

• Build the results and comparison pages where customers see and compare quotes

• Build the marketing/landing pages

Must-have skills

• Strong React experience; ideally Next.js specifically

• Experience building multi-step forms with validation

• Experience building pages that need to load fast and rank well in search (SEO-aware development)

• Awareness of accessibility standards (WCAG) — building it in from the start, not bolting it on later

Strong nice-to-haves

• Experience in e-commerce, comparison, or marketplace websites

• Experience working from a design system / component library

• Experience in a regulated or compliance-heavy industry

• Experience embedding web analytics

The Bar

We are looking for engineers with real technology career highlights. A strong highlight is not just working at a famous company. A strong highlight means you personally helped build, ship or scale a serious product, platform or system.

Location

This role is remote, but candidates must be based in UK. We are hiring specifically for this market, so applicants should already be based in UK.

Language

English is our main working language across global teams. Strong English communication is required.

1. Online assessment or practical task

2. Technical interview

3. CEO / final round

For strong candidates, we aim to complete the process and make an offer within 1 week from the start of the interview process. Candidates who complete assessments quickly will be prioritized.
