Senior Full Stack Engineer

Who We AreOur mission at Quandri is to transform insurance into a trusted and delightful experience using AI. We are building the AI operating system for North America’s best insurance agencies and brokerages. For the first time ever, we have the technology to fundamentally change how insurance operates, and the stakes are human. Better insurance means families protected from harm, businesses able to take risks, and communities more resilient when the worst happens. For insurance practitioners, the ability to deliver this level of service finally becomes possible.
What We DoQuandri brings deeply specific, vertically‑focused AI to the industry’s most critical stakeholders: insurance agencies and brokerages. Agents are the lifeblood of the industry, the place where most property and casualty insurance is sold and serviced. Yet operating an agency is harder than ever. Peak product complexity, accelerating consolidation, a deepening talent crisis, and the AI revolution are all reshaping how agencies work. Quandri sits at the cutting edge of this shift, rebuilding how agencies operate one workflow at a time. We pair a deep understanding of insurance processes, systems, and data with serious technical capability and proprietary models, so the transformation is tangible and operational rather than aspirational. We’re making insurance better for policyholders, while helping insurance brokerages deliver a better client service, grow faster, and harness AI so that they control the future of insurance distribution.

About the RoleAs a Full Stack Engineer at Quandri, you will be directly responsible as an IC leader of a team that builds our revenue‑generating customer‑facing product offerings on our intelligence platform. As a key member of our technical staff, you will also contribute to building and driving a high‑performing engineering culture of technical excellence that scales as headcount grows. Your expertise will be crucial in mentoring other developers, guiding them to grow their technical skills. You will also be responsible for hiring new talent and training them to ensure they meet our high standards. We expect effective communication and ownership, ensuring clarity and comprehensiveness through technical design documents, documentation, and technical roadmaps. The ideal candidate is excited by the improved developer velocity impacts of AI‑driven development tools. You are adaptable, curious, and driven, with a passion for diving deep into technical problems and a desire to make a significant impact.
Working with product owners, VP of Engineering, customer success, other IC leaders, and business stakeholders, you will drive impact through team health, operational excellence, and delivering large‑scale impact against aligned objectives.
If you enjoy transforming an industry, want to work with a close‑knit and high performing team, value a high level of ownership in everything you do, and want to take on a real challenge, then this could be the right fit.

Don’t let imposter syndrome stop you from applying. Great people sometimes don’t have the “right” experience. If you think that you’ll be amazing at this role, then we encourage you to apply.
At Quandri, we build technology that automates the repetitive so people can focus on what actually matters — and we apply that same philosophy internally. In our hiring process, that means using AI to handle the administrative and logistical work so our interviewers can show up more fully in every conversation with you. AI tools support parts of our process, such as analyzing resumes and taking notes during interviews. But AI is never the decision maker. Every hiring decision is made by real people who are invested in getting it right — for you and for Quandri. If you have questions about how your information is handled or how we use AI, don’t hesitate to reach out.
