About the role

  • Think of us as the operating system that powers these specialized insurance offerings.
  • For brokers, this means they can offer unique products their competitors don't have, earn more money, and spend less time on paperwork and administrative tasks.
  • Brokers bring the data and distribution.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the design and implementation of data pipelines and infrastructure that power underwriting models, claims processing, and operational reporting-taking ownership from problem definition through delivery
  • Own the data warehouse architecture, making decisions that balance analytical performance, operational needs, and long-term scalability
  • Identify bottlenecks across the data stack and build solutions that improve reliability, reduce latency, and scale with business growth
  • Partner with engineering, product, and ops teams to understand data needs and translate them into well-designed systems
  • Build monitoring, alerting, and data quality frameworks that catch issues before they impact downstream consumers
  • Drive data governance practices, including documentation, lineage tracking, and access controls for regulatory and compliance needs
  • Mentor and coach other engineers on the team, helping them grow technically and develop ownership mindsets
  • Demonstrated high agency and ownership: you naturally clarify what "good" looks like, ask great questions, and drive to completion
  • Authentic builds the infrastructure that program insurance runs on.
  • We partner with leading brokerages to design and manage custom insurance programs, backed by A and A- rated carriers operating nationwide.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience building and maintaining data pipelines and infrastructure in production environments at scale
  • Strong proficiency with modern data stack tools: Snowflake, dbt, and Airflow (or similar orchestration tools)

  • Expert understanding of data modeling best practices (dimensional modeling, slowly changing dimensions, data vault, etc.)
  • Familiarity with AWS data services and infrastructure-as-code
