Founding Software Engineer

Department: Engineering

Location: New York

Employment Type: FullTime

About the Role

We're a seed-stage, Y Combinator-backed insurtech AI company building agentic workflows that automate complex claims operations for insurance carriers, third-party administrators (TPAs), and their partners. Our platform handles everything from claim intake and status updates to third-party outreach and document parsing — processing millions of claims across Workers' Compensation, Property & Casualty, and Health insurance sectors.

We're looking for a Founding Software Engineer to join our small, high-velocity team and help shape the core platform. This is a forward-deployed engineering role — you'll work directly with customers, map their workflows, and ship production-grade code that solves real problems at scale.

What You'll Do

• Build voice AI systems and document agent workflows that process millions of insurance claims.

• Partner directly with customers to deeply understand their workflows and deliver friction-free solutions.

• Ship production-grade TypeScript and Python code that operates on live claims data.

• Design APIs, data models, and integrations with claims management systems and external platforms.

• Contribute to foundational architectural decisions as an early member of the engineering team.

What We're Looking For

Required:

• 3+ years of professional software development experience with TypeScript and Python in production environments.

• Hands-on experience with AWS, Docker, and PostgreSQL in production.

• Proven ability to design and implement APIs, data models, and integrations with external systems (e.g., claims management systems or similar enterprise platforms).

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; comfortable collaborating directly with customers in a forward-deployed capacity.

• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, early-stage startup environment.

• Must be authorized to work in the United States (US citizen or valid work visa). Visa sponsorship is not available.

• Must be able to work from within the United States.

Nice to Have:

• Prior experience in insurtech, healthtech, or other regulated industries.

• Familiarity with voice AI, LLM orchestration, or agentic workflow systems.

• Experience at an early-stage startup or in a founding engineering role.

Compensation & Benefits

• Salary: $150,000 – $200,000 per year

• Early-stage equity as a founding team member
