Savvy | Remote | Full-time | https://savvy.insure Savvy is completely revolutionizing the way that people shop for car insurance. Instead of filling out countless forms answering questions that nobody knows the answers to, Savvy uses a Plaid-for-insurance API to extract a person’s existing policy information and automatically retrieves offers for insurance shoppers. This transformation in the car insurance shopping experience empowers consumers to get the best deal and has helped people save millions on their auto insurance. Savvy is already a profitable, healthy business, but we’re looking to expand our fully-remote team so we can grow the business - pulling in additional offers to help users find better deals, offering other types of insurance to help users save even more on their policies. Members of our team value extreme ownership, speed, collaboration, and craftsmanship - if these values resonate with you, you’ll fit right in! A modern, cloud-based tech stack powers our systems behind the scenes - a mix of Kubernetes orchestrated pods and serverless API endpoints does the heavy lifting. We’re a JS shop, so JavaScript everywhere, all the time - React on the front end, Node / TypeScript on the backend (they had to stop me from using a PLV8-enabled PostgreSQL instance). Our comprehensive CI suite (3000+ automated tests on a codebase <12 months old) empowers us to have a full CD pipeline (<9 minutes from merge to live on production). Here are our openings: Senior Software Engineer https://boards.greenhouse.io/savvyinsure/jobs/4000894004 Staff Software Engineer https://boards.greenhouse.io/savvyinsure/jobs/4004379004 Director of Engineering https://boards.greenhouse.io/savvyinsure/jobs/4001031004 Apply directly on Greenhouse or send inquiries directly to hiring@savvy.insure.
