About the role
- We are looking for a Forward Deployed Software Engineer (FDSE) who thrives at the intersection of high-level architecture and deep-stack technical execution.
- This isn't a "one-off" integration role.
- You are a hybrid of a software engineer, product strategist, and technical consultant.
Responsibilities
- Lead the design and implementation of new features in our core SaaS product.
- You will lead technical workshops with stakeholders to define "future state" solutions.
- Prevent "bespoke bloat." Identify universal customer needs and collaborate with product and engineering teams to bake those into the core technical direction.
- Convr is an AI underwriting, data, and intelligent document automation workbench built for commercial P&C insurers.
- We help carriers, MGAs, and brokers accelerate premium growth, improve risk insights, and drive operational efficiency.
- As we scale, we're building a team shaping the future of commercial underwriting.
Requirements
- You are as comfortable whiteboarding a system diagram for a CTO as you are submitting a pull request for a mission-critical API endpoint.
- 10+ years of professional experience in full-stack or frontend development, specifically within SaaS products or startup environments.
- Strong coder with shown proficiency in TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, Java, C++, or similar.
- Strong experience in Commercial P&C Insurance and understanding of the underwriting lifecycle (submission through quote)
- Hands-on experience with Next.js App Router (server components, layouts, streaming, caching).
- Experience with tRPC or equivalent type-safe API frameworks.
- Experience implementing complex, data-heavy views with Tailwind and component libraries (shadcn/ui, Mantine, etc.).
Skills
- Work across the entire stack, from optimizing database queries and API endpoints to crafting intuitive UI/UX.
