You are:
Opinionated, but open-minded
Curious, always looking to grow & learn
Empathetic, helpful and respectful
Self-directed, finding solutions independently
Optimistic, on what can ultimately be accomplished, realistic in the path to get there.
You believe in:
Craftsmanship. You take pride in “doing things right”
Robust, Tested and Performant Code
Cross-functionality. Working across disciplines builds better systems
Involvement. You want to be part of not just code, but decisions, prioritizations and directions
Ownership. Ship it, own it, be proud of it
Automation. Anything that can be automated should be automated
You have:
2+ years professional experience in Scala (strongly preferred), Haskell, Clojure, OCaml or another functional language
The ability to bring leading industry techniques and technologies to the table
An educational background in Computer Science/Software Engineering (preferred)
Undo is a start-up on a mission to change insurance as you know it. We’re replacing bureaucracy and roadblocks by injecting technology and accessibility into an industry that lacks both – reinventing insurance as it should be: no paperwork, no phone queues, less BS. The result is a seamless digital interface on both web and app, that delivers a fast, affordable, and hassle-free experience.
UNDO has:
A exceptional focus on employee happiness. It’s about the journey, not the destination
A highly informal, humorous culture. In contrast to insurance, we are (we would argue) not boring
A flat structure. Everyone is on deck, together, and your opinion will always be taken into account
This job comes with several perks and benefits
