About the Role

Join the continued build-out of a production-grade surplus lines platform — a system already handling real policy processing, compliance workflows, and reporting for an active business. This isn't a greenfield project or a maintenance gig: you'll step into a complex, live system, understand its workflows quickly, and independently own solutions across the full stack. If you're a strong engineer first — comfortable across frontend, backend, and workflow orchestration — this is a long-term engagement with real technical depth.

What You'll Do

Design, develop, and maintain full-stack application features across frontend and backend systems

Build and support integrations with third-party systems and APIs

Develop workflow-driven processes using Temporal

Build scalable APIs and backend services using Python

Maintain and optimize relational databases using PostgreSQL

Develop reporting and analytics capabilities using charting libraries

Contribute to AI-enabled features and integrations within the platform

Improve CI/CD pipelines and deployment processes

Participate in architecture discussions and help shape long-term technical direction

Work closely with business and technical stakeholders to deliver production-ready solutions

What You Bring

7+ years of full stack software engineering experience

Strong proficiency in Python, with solid backend API development experience

Strong frontend experience with modern web frameworks

Proven experience designing and building scalable applications with sound architecture

Hands-on experience with Temporal and workflow orchestration patterns

Familiarity with asynchronous processing and event-driven systems

Strong PostgreSQL, SQL, and data modeling experience

Experience building reporting dashboards using charting libraries such as Chart.js, D3.js, or Plotly

Experience with CI/CD pipelines, containerized deployments, and cloud environments

Strong English communication skills, with availability during U.S. business hours

Nice to Have

Experience in insurance, surplus lines, or compliance-based applications

Experience integrating with third-party vendors and external APIs

Experience with AI tooling, LLM integrations, and context engineering

Experience building intelligent automation features

 

RATE: $30-$50/hr
