Who are we looking for?
Axle is looking for senior engineers who will build and evolve products that will expand the possibilities of how insurance works in our every day lives. As a founding engineer at the company, you will contribute across both external interfaces used by Axle’s customers and internal services that serve as the foundation of the Axle platform. You will drive the development of new features, from conception to design to implementation, testing, and beyond. You'll help identify and prioritize the most impactful problems to solve and set the direction of Axle for years to come. And you will help chart the future of a growing engineering team by engaging in mentorship and improving standards and processes.
What will you be doing?
Best time to join - We are just getting started but well-funded and have hit early revenue milestones, meaning you get the upside of starting at the earliest stage without the risk.
Define our culture - You will have an active hand in molding our engineering culture and outlining our growth journey.
Build something transformative - Insurance is a $3T industry with minimal technology penetration. Help build the insurance data infrastructure of the future.
Benefits Included
Axle is an equal opportunity workplace—we are dedicated to equal employment opportunities regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, or Veteran status. We believe in actively building a team rich in diverse backgrounds, experiences, and opinions to better allow our employees, products, and community to thrive.
