[Remote] Senior Software Engineer (Full-Stack, Backend-leaning)

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Jerry.ai is America’s first and only super app to radically simplify car ownership. The Senior Software Engineer will build automation systems for complex insurance servicing tasks, optimize internal tools, and collaborate closely with product, data, and engineering ops to improve customer retention.

Responsibilities

• Build automation systems that handle complex insurance servicing tasks end-to-end (policy endorsements, cancellations, document uploads, reinstatements) or reduce policy cancellations, improve renewals, and ensure users always have the best coverage.
• Fast sprint cycles: ship new automations in 1–2 weeks on average.
• Compose backend business logic that drives automation while respecting complex insurance carrier rules.
• Design backend pipelines that sync customer policy data, deliver timely alerts, and power seamless re-shopping experiences.
• Optimize and scale our internal tools (think: in-house DocuSign for servicing) to reduce agent intervention to nearly zero.
• Collaborate closely with product, data, and engineering ops to anticipate churn and improve customer retention.
• Work asynchronously across time zones, with minimal meetings but strong collaboration through Asana and Slack.
• Continuously improve our backend systems, APIs, and microservice architecture.

Skills

• At least 5 years full stack engineering experience building production-grade software, ideally prior experience building large scale distributed systems for a fast-growing consumer-facing software
• Strong foundations in data structures, algorithms, and systems design matter more than prior experience with our tech stack
• You enjoy tackling ambiguous problems, breaking them down into actionable code, and iterating quickly
• You take responsibility for end-to-end outcomes and continuously improve the systems you build
• Comfortable working asynchronously with a global team, with excellent communication skills
• You love learning, exploring new tools, and stepping outside your comfort zone to understand the bigger picture
