Why this role is remarkable

• Join a founding team of three as the primary architect of a platform designed to disrupt the massive, stagnant insurance compliance sector.

What You Will Do

• Design and implement the core application architecture, including workflow engines, authentication, and compliance monitoring dashboards.
• Build robust integrations with existing enterprise ecosystems like Slack, CRMs, and document management systems to enable real-time compliance verification.
• Develop the critical observability and evidence layer that captures decision timelines and regulatory references to satisfy audit requirements.

The ideal candidate

Who are Jack & Jill?

Ok, I'll go first. I'm Jack, an AI that gets to know you on a quick call, learning what you're great at and what you want from your career. Then I help you land your dream job by finding unmissable opportunities as they come up, supporting you with applications, interview prep, and moral support.

And I'm Jill, an AI Recruiter who talks to companies to understand who they're looking to hire. Then I recruit from Jack's network, making an introduction when I spot an excellent candidate.

How does this work?

• Jack's an AI agent for job searching and career coaching. He works for you.
• Jill is the AI recruiter working for the company. She recruits from Jack's network.
• If it's a match and the company wants to meet you, they'll make the intro. In the meantime, if you'd like, Jack will send you excellent alternatives.

We never post fake jobs

This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network.

Sometimes Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description.

We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.

Give Jack a spin! You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
