Responsibilities
Own all of our technical relationships and integrations with insurance providers like Progressive, Allstate, and GEICO
Ensure that our shopping engine intelligently identifies which providers to request by balancing considerations like the likely quality/importance of their offer, search latency, data costs, and more
Retrieve accurate offers informed by all available shopper data, including intelligently interpolating unavailable data inputs
Maintain a high degree of service availability
Grow the number of high-quality results (e.g. quotes) retrieved per search/shopper by integrating new providers of existing types of offers and systematically eliminating bugs and shortcomings in existing integrations
Improve the R2 of our 'result quality' models by driving more accurate rate estimates by ensuring inputs are calculated, interpolated, and plumbed correctly and accurately and adding an intelligence layer to prevent unnecessary requests
Add new kinds of offers to our search engine, such as auto loan refinancing
Qualification
Required
Extensive Backend Engineering Experience – This role will be nearly entirely backend focused. You should be comfortable exercising best practices in Typscript/NodeJS
Product/Business Chops – You will need to make smart, nuanced product decisions, such as what coverages to request for a given shopper. This will require that you be able to quickly learn new product domains (like how car insurance works in each state)
Communication Skills – Since you will be working extensively with the companies that pay our bills, professional and clear written and verbal communication skills will be essential, as well as judgment for how to navigate their large corporate bureaucracies
Process Orientation – You will be responsible for a lot of spinning plates, such as bugs that insurers' need to fix, and multi-week refactoring projects, so you will need to skillfully manage and keep track of everything by designing and implementing effective and right-sized processes
Comfort with Data – In order to identify issues and design optimizations, you will need to self-sufficiently navigate production data using tools like Looker and Datadog. You will need to design things like smart algorithms for anomaly detection
