Axle - Universal API for insurance

Axle is Plaid for Insurance - a universal API for access to Insurance Data. We make it easy for consumers to securely share their insurance data to companies they trust, in seconds.

Over $13B is spent on uninsured loss every year, and mortgages and auto loans are prohibitively expensive for many borrowers. Why? In a large part because fleet managers, lenders, and gig services are missing access to insurance data.

Axle solves this problem - providing instant, continuous access to insurance data, enabling our clients to make decisions in seconds instead of hours.

Axle is a fast growing, seed-stage startup backed by leading investors including Y Combinator (+ latest investors to be announced soon 😎 ) and angels from companies like Plaid and Cox Automotive. Our team is based in Atlanta and New York, where we come together to collaborate between time spent working in our own environments.

Who are we looking for?

Axle is looking for full-stack engineers who will build and evolve products that will expand the possibilities of how insurance works in our every day lives. As an early engineer at the company, you will contribute across both external interfaces used by Axle’s customers and internal services that serve as the foundation of the Axle platform. You will contribute the development of new features, with a key attention to design and scalability.

What will you be doing?

  • Build and scale services, UI components, and data pipelines used by every Axle customer, partner, and user.
  • Contribute to the design, scoping, and delivery of features to our customers.
  • Translate our customer needs into targeted optimizations and new interactions.
  • Ideate and manage tooling, processes, and engineering standards across the team.
  • Guide new engineers (including offshore resources) through training and reviews.

What would set you up for success?

  • 1+ years of experience (or equivalent) building and scaling frontend components and backend services
  • Ability to write and debug production-quality frontend (React) and backend (Node.js) code.
  • Familiarity with configurations for cloud resources, such as NoSQL databases, object storage, and message queues, and experience evaluating tradeoffs in scalability, reliability, performance, and maintainability.
  • A desire to work closely with customers to solve their problems.

What would be even better?

  • Experience in reverse engineering public and internal APIs.
  • A background in network protocols and authorization standards.
  • Working knowledge of common web and mobile frameworks and libraries.

Why join Axle?

Best time to join - We are just getting started but well-funded, meaning you get the upside of starting at the earliest stage without the risk.

Define our culture - You will have an active hand in molding our engineering culture and outlining our growth journey.

Build something transformative - Help build the insurance data infrastructure of the future.

Benefits included:

  • Great compensation & equity packages
  • Full medical, dental, and vision benefits
  • Unlimited vacation
  • Mentorship opportunities for junior engineers
  • Flexible, hybrid work environment (option for remote as well)
