Engineering @ Open

At Open, we exist because we believe that Insurance does not have to be seen as complicated or costly. Creating technology so our customers can enjoy smart and intuitive insurance experiences is at the core of Open’s development philosophy. When we do this, we’re building modern infrastructure that brings the wonder into insurance.

With a truly end-to-end approach, we build all of our own technology. Our engineering team alongside our AI and data science team aim to give customers better insurance prices. We create the insurance experience our customers deserve, not the one they expect. The team specialises in Angular and Python (Django), and uses the latest AWS tools to support development.

What you’ll do

As a Senior Frontend Engineer, you will be responsible for building beautiful, accessible, mobile-first web applications in Angular. Working closely with your fellow engineers, product managers and designers – you will create seamless and delightful experiences for our customers/partners. Together, you will drive business value each step of the way. In this role, you will:

• Design and build efficient, scalable, and reusable frontend software solutions meeting time and technical constraints.
• Review code and technical designs from your teammates, paying attention to patterns and practices of the team.
• Contribute to the technical roadmap, documentation quality, and platform health of your squad, inline with Open’s technology strategy.
• Collaborate with Product Managers, Designers, and Data teams to build and deploy products and improvements.
• Share experience and knowledge openly with the team.
• Ensure the systems built have the appropriate level of logging and monitoring.
• Keep abreast of technology changes.
• Keep security and privacy front of mind throughout the SDLC.

Finally, you’ll also have the opportunity to learn about the insurance industry. And, understand the key differentiators that make Open a key player in our space and why we will be successful on our mission.

What you’ll bring

• Strong experience as a Software Engineer in Angular and Typescript.
• Good experience in CI/CD, and Git+ workflows to support code review and release of software.
• Practitioner of SOLID principles, and can coach their adoption through code reviews.
• Familiarity with RESTful APIs and modern front-end build pipelines and tools.
• Experience with Unit testing, Integration testing & E2E testing.
• A Bachelors/Masters degree in computer science or a related field is preferred, but not necessary.

Role location

Who we are

Open is on a mission to provide the best insurance experiences, at the best price, for the world. Insurance is one of the world’s least digitally mature industries - for years it’s remained confusing, paper-based and heavily intermediated. We launched in 2016 to build a global, AI-powered platform that digitises the entire insurance process, making it transparent, less costly and more reliable.

Our promise to customers is powerful car, home and travel insurance. Many know us through our consumer brand, Huddle (huddleinsurance.com), and we also offer bespoke white-label solutions for brands who embed our insurance into their digital experiences. Our partner brands include Bupa, Polestar, Telstra, and ahm.

But the best is yet to come – we plan on doubling growth while expanding to New Zealand and the UK. We also believe in using business as a force for good – Open is Australasia’s only certified B Corp insurance company.

Open is backed by leading investors, including AirTree Ventures, Movac, LocalGlobe UK and Hollard Insurance and we’ve raised over $53m to date. Since 2018, we’ve achieved a 628% growth rate and have won awards from FinTech Australia, the Global InsurTech 100, Mozo.com.au, Pause Fest, SmartCompany’s Smart50 (5th) and the AFR Fast 100, who recognised us as Australia’s 7th fastest growing company in 2022. 

Our team thrive on solving problems to revolutionise insurance and have a ‘no excuses’ attitude when it comes to putting our customers first. We have a high performing team and an open and enabling culture that attracts the best creative and critical thinkers. Join us and let’s build the future of insurance together.
