What are the responsibilities and job description for the AI Backend Software Engineer position at Informatic Technologies, Inc.?
Our client, an enterprise fintech startup focused on the insurance industry, is seeking Backend Software Engineers (4–12 YOE) to join its growing team.
This is a high-impact role for a curious, highly autonomous engineer who wants to own the design and implementation of end-to-end workflows in a complex, high-stakes domain. You'll play a foundational role in building the product from the ground up, tackling challenging backend and automation problems from day one.
What you'll do:
Build end-to-end workflows for insurance agencies, with a focus on automation and AI-driven solutions
Integrate with fragmented and often low-tech systems, creating reliable and scalable infrastructure
Work directly with customers to gather feedback, iterate quickly, and translate technical concepts into clear solutions
Contribute to greenfield development, building on top of an existing browser automation layer
Collaborate on system design and architecture to solve complex, real-world problems
What they're looking for:
4–12 years of backend engineering experience, ideally in startup environments
Experience at early-stage companies (pre-Series D); founding engineer experience is a plus
Background working in complex or low-tech industries (insurance, fintech, healthcare) preferred
Proficiency with modern AI coding tools (e.g., Copilot, Cursor)
Experience with browser automation or web scraping is a plus
Strong curiosity and willingness to engage directly with customers
This is an opportunity to build meaningful infrastructure at the intersection of AI, fintech, and insurance—while having real ownership and impact from day one.
Traits to prioritize:
4 years backend experience with startup background
Uses modern AI tools like Claude/Cursor daily
