What they need
Senior Software Engineer - Stop-Loss Platform | Contract-to-Hire | Remote | No sponsorship offered
We're currently partnering with a leading insurance organization on their search for a Senior Software Engineer to help build the next generation of a brand-new Stop-Loss platform.
This is a hands-on engineering role. You'll develop production-ready software in a greenfield environment, taking ownership of key components and features while working closely with architects, senior engineers, and cross-functional partners.
You'll work from established architectural direction, adapting as requirements evolve, and help shape features and platform capabilities as they take form. Day to day, you'll use AI-assisted development tools to work faster and raise quality.
Essential requirements (all are must-haves):
- C#/.NET: current, hands-on experience building production applications.
- React: experience building front-end applications.
- AWS: hands-on experience building and running applications on AWS.
- AI-assisted development: practical experience using tools such as Copilot or Cursor across coding, testing, debugging, and refactoring.
What we're looking for:
- 6 to 9 years of cumulative software engineering experience, building production-ready applications.
- A strong engineer who implements scalable, high-quality solutions from architectural direction and collaborates well with architects and senior engineers.
- Comfort in fast-paced, evolving environments, and a solid grasp of engineering best practices for reliable, maintainable systems.
- Someone who is coachable, curious, and proactive in asking thoughtful questions, and open to feedback and continuous growth.
- Event-driven or microservices experience, Python, and GraphQL are valuable but not essential.
- Experience in Insurance, Financial Services, or another regulated environment is desirable, particularly where you've handled sensitive data.
- Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the US. Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
Key responsibilities include:
- Developing production-ready software for the Stop-Loss platform, taking ownership of key components and features.
- Implementing solutions aligned with the established architecture while adapting to evolving requirements.
- Collaborating with architects, senior engineers, and cross-functional partners to deliver high-quality solutions.
- Helping shape features and platform capabilities in a greenfield environment.
- Applying engineering best practices to build reliable, scalable, and maintainable code.
- Using AI-assisted tools to improve efficiency across coding, testing, debugging, and refactoring.
Why this role is different: You're joining at the start of a brand-new platform build, not maintaining a legacy system. You'll have real ownership of your work from day one, a team that values curiosity and feedback, and the chance to grow with a new engineering capability.
