What we look out for:

• Have genuine interest and curiosity about ETAP, and consumer insurance in general


• Enjoy working as a team to solve problems collaboratively


• Have around 4+ years of experience building rock-solid backend/frontend systems and APIs


• Have a track record of shipping great quality code with real customer impact


• Be comfortable and productive working with Node JS (Nest) and Reactjs. Having a knowledge background with at least one dynamically-typed language such as python is a good sign.

Our Recruitment Process:

We are interested to get to know you and your background. Our recruitment process comprises four steps and is designed to be straightforward:

• Completion of a technical test related to the job. We feel this is an important step of the process both for us and for you.
