Integrate with third-party systems like CRM platforms, underwriting engines, and payment gateways.

4. System Architecture & Quality

Design and document microservices architecture to support evolving business needs.
Ensure applications are compliant with industry standards like PCI-DSS, GDPR, HIPAA (for health insurance), and relevant insurance regulations.
Implement and oversee automated testing strategies (unit, integration, and end-to-end) to maintain high-quality code.

5. Collaboration & Cross-Functional Engagement

Work closely with product owners, actuaries, underwriters, and claims teams to deliver software that meets the evolving needs of insurance operations.
Participate in PI Planning and product roadmap discussions, providing technical insights for new insurance product initiatives.
Collaborate with DevOps teams to ensure smooth CI/CD pipelines and infrastructure scalability.

Underwriting Systems: Integrate with automated underwriting platforms to streamline policy issuance.
Claims Management Applications: Build applications to automate claims intake, adjudication, and communication.

Required Qualifications:

12+ years of full-stack development experience, with a strong focus on modern frontend frameworks like React.js.

Proven track record of leading technical teams and delivering complex projects in the insurance or financial services sector.
Strong proficiency in JavaScript/TypeScript, React core concepts (Hooks, Context API), and state management tools like Redux or Zustand.
Solid experience with Node.js, Java, or .NET for backend development.
In-depth understanding of API development (REST/GraphQL) and microservices architecture.
