Full Job Description

đź“‹ Description

  • • Build and operate backend systems that serve AI-powered insurance workflows in production, including quotations, policy issuance, endorsements, claims, and customer follow-ups.
  • • Design and implement AI orchestration layers that connect large language models (LLMs), APIs, business logic, and automated workflows.
  • • Develop inference pipelines for LLM-based and AI-assisted automation systems to handle real-time decisioning across insurance processes.
  • • Optimize latency, throughput, and cost of AI services through caching, batching, streaming, and intelligent routing mechanisms.
  • • Define and maintain stable service boundaries between backend systems, machine learning components, and product-facing APIs.
  • • Implement comprehensive observability including logging, metrics, tracing, and alerting to ensure production reliability and rapid incident response.
  • • Debug and resolve root causes of production issues across distributed AI systems involving multiple services, models, and data flows.
  • • Collaborate with frontend, product, operations, and machine learning teams to deliver end-to-end features from design to deployment.
  • • Continuously improve system reliability, scalability, and performance based on real-world usage patterns and feedback.
  • • Operate high-throughput, low-latency services that support millions of users across Southeast Asia and beyond.
  • • Ensure AI workflows are stable, observable, and production-ready across multiple insurance products and customer touchpoints.
  • • Maintain and evolve the tech stack including Python, Node.js, LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, open-source models), SQL/NoSQL databases, Kubernetes, Docker, and distributed systems tooling.
  • • Own systems end-to-end—from initial design and implementation to production monitoring, iteration, and incident resolution.
  • • Work within a globally distributed engineering team across multiple countries, coordinating asynchronously and synchronously to ship high-impact features.
  • • Prioritize real-world production impact over theoretical design, focusing on system stability, observability, and scalability.
  • • Embrace ambiguity and evolving requirements while maintaining engineering discipline and speed of execution.
  • • Participate in an interview process consisting of 3–4 virtual or onsite interviews evaluated by technical team members.

🎯 Requirements

  • • Strong backend engineering experience in production systems
  • • Experience building or operating high-throughput, low-latency services
  • • Familiarity with AI systems (LLMs, embeddings, or AI workflows)
  • • Experience with distributed systems and production debugging
  • • Strong understanding of APIs, data flows, and system design principles
  • • Experience with observability tools (logging, monitoring, tracing)

🏖️ Benefits

  • • Build AI-Powered Products - Work on intelligent insurance automation systems
  • • Global Engineering Organization - Collaborate across multiple countries
  • • International Impact - Products used by millions across Southeast Asia and beyond
  • • Learning & Development Budget - Support for continuous growth
