About the role
We are looking for a Product Engineer with 4+ years of experience to build and own AI-powered products that directly impact business KPIs.
This is a highly product-oriented engineering role: the engineer will work directly with sales, service, underwriting, and operations teams, identify business problems, turn them into scalable technical solutions, and ship extremely quickly.
The company operates at a very fast pace — prototypes and production features are expected to ship within hours or the same week rather than over long development cycles.
Key responsibilities
- Own one or multiple business KPIs end-to-end and drive measurable improvements through technology.
- Work directly with non-technical stakeholders across sales, service, underwriting, and operations.
- Translate business problems into scalable product and engineering solutions.
- Design and build AI-powered and agentic systems, including RAG, MCP, AI agents, and automation.
- Build across the full stack, rather than focusing exclusively on backend or frontend.
- Prototype, ship, measure, and iterate extremely quickly.
- Support production systems and participate in on-call responsibilities.
Must-have profile
- 4+ years of software/product engineering experience.
- Strong hands-on engineering skills in Python and/or TypeScript.
- Experience building production AI/LLM applications, ideally including:
- RAG
- AI agents / agent frameworks
- MCP
- workflow automation
- Strong product mindset — comfortable owning a business outcome/KPI, not just completing engineering tickets.
- Experience working directly with business or non-technical stakeholders.
- Ability to work across the stack and independently take a problem from idea prototype production.
- Comfortable working in a very high-speed startup environment.
- Willing to work 5 days per week from the San Francisco office.
- Comfortable supporting live systems / participating in on-call.
Strong plus
- Experience with Voice AI.
- AWS and/or GCP.
- Experience using AI coding tools such as Cursor and Claude Code as part of the daily development workflow.
- Startup / early-stage company experience.
- Experience building internal tools or automation for sales, operations, underwriting, customer service, or other business teams.
- Insurance / InsurTech experience.
