Overview Of The Role

We’re on a mission to modernize insurance, making it simpler, more accessible, and customer-first. The insurance industry is a $1T market that’s remained largely untouched by the digital revolution, and PolicyMe is here to change that. As a remote-first, Toronto-based startup with big ambitions, we’re building the future of insurance in Canada and beyond.

We're building a groundbreaking new product line that will transform the insurance broker experience through AI and machine learning. As an AI-Driven Full Stack Engineer, you'll be part of a team charting new territory - designing and implementing intelligent systems that automate manual processes and unlock powerful data-driven insights.

You will work across the stack, contributing to front end, back end, and AI/ML initiatives, while also participating in architecture discussions, release planning, and company-wide engineering initiatives. Our core stack includes Python, React, Redux, PostgreSQL, n8n, LangChain/LangGraph and AWS, and we are always open to adopting new tools and technologies that help us deliver better results.

What you'll be doing:

Develop full stack features for our AI-powered web application using Python, React, Redux, PostgreSQL and AWS
Integrate AI models and APIs for tasks like document processing, data extraction, recommendation engines etc
Work closely with Sr. Engineers experienced in AI to seamlessly integrate models into production
Stay current on emerging AI technologies/frameworks and explore new applications
Build scalable, reliable backend services to fuel our AI workflows
Create intuitive user experiences that surface AI-powered capabilities
Participate in architecture planning, code reviews, and ideation sessions
Take ownership of feature development end-to-end (once ramped up), coordinating with QA and other teams
Engage in cross-team communication to help unblock dependencies and improve release flow
Share ideas during quarterly planning to help shape what we build next
Participate in company-wide initiatives such as hackathons, engineering guilds, and AI tooling experiments

What we are looking for:

Strong full-stack development skills with the ability to work across backend and frontend using Python, React, Redux, PostgreSQL, and AWS
Familiarity with AI/ML concepts from coursework, side projects, or work experience
Passion for building intelligent applications that solve real-world problems
Eagerness to learn, embrace ambiguity, and continually upskill in a rapidly evolving space
Hands-on experience or projects interacting with AI APIs/models (e.g. prompt engineering)
Self-starter with a career-driven mindset who thrives in an environment with autonomy and accountability
Collaborative team player with low ego who is open to feedback and eager to help others
Detail-oriented approach to problem-solving, especially in complex domains

Why join us:

Generous PTO - 20 vacation days
Access to stock options and a comprehensive benefits plan
A remote-first team with company paid, in-person socials and the option to work from our Toronto-based office
Resources to help your professional development, including an L&D budget, performance reviews twice a year and ongoing feedback to ensure you reach your highest potential
Work with an empathetic, high-performing team in a flexible, results-oriented environment
