The role
As a Product-Minded Software Engineer III, you will be responsible for incrementally shipping value to customers, orchestrating AI agents to research, plan, and implement changes to our products while iterating with the wider team to leverage these tools to increase velocity and quality.
This role reports to an Engineering Manager and sits within a product team of 8-10, who believe in pioneering AI engineering workflows and transforming team practices through agentic collaboration.
We’re based in Brighton, with a hybrid working model. You’ll come into the office once a month, with the rest of your time remote.
What you’ll do
* Products serving a variety of jurisdictions: INSHUR operates globally with offices in LA, NYC, London, Brighton and Amsterdam
* Products serving a variety of customers: We don’t just sell insurance. We also manage claims and build internal tools for stakeholders throughout the business. As a product engineer, you’ll be at the heart of our efforts to create data-driven, embedded technology to make insurance faster and more accessible
* Products offering a unique take on insurance: INSHUR has built its own usage based insurance offering which was a first of its kind in the UK and US.
* AI-Native Development: Leverage tools like Claude Code to research, plan, and write code, delivering features at a velocity that exceeds standard manual engineering estimates.
* Quality & Governance: Verify AI-generated outputs against our engineering standards to ensure we are not introducing "AI-generated technical debt."
* Pathfinding: Establish a personal "AI-native" workflow to ingest existing repository patterns and propose department-wide improvements to the developer experience
What we’re looking for
We care more about how you think than what’s on your CV. If you meet most of the essentials and are excited about the problem, apply.
Essential
* Product mindset: You can take a problem and break it down into small iterations of value
* Outcome driven: Rather than going deep on tooling, you’re focussed on delivering value to customers in terms they understand
* AI-Native / Agentic Workflow: You have effectively used tools like Claude Code to plan, architect, and code, and can clearly explain how you steer agents to achieve complex goals.
* Golang / Java/NodeJS - Polyglot Mindset: You possess a solid understanding of Go, Java (inc Spring) or NodeJS to verify code, while being able to use AI to bridge syntax gaps rapidly.
* Testing & Quality Assurance: You are able to articulate tests in business language, even when code is generated by AI.
* Innovation & Growth Mindset: You are passionate about bringing new workflows to a scale‑up environment and "learning in the open."
Nice to have
* Scaling Experience: You have worked with asynchronous distributed systems
* AI Tooling Proficiency: You bring to the table novel ideas and flows around AI coding assistants like Cursor or Claude Code
* Mentorship Track Record: You have experience sharing knowledge and upskilling teams on new technologies or methodologies.
* Behavioural testing mindset: When it comes to testing, you think in terms of locking in behaviour, not implementation
What to expect from the process
* Screen & Intro: 30-minute video call with the Talent Team to discuss the role and your experience with AI agents.
* HM Interview: 45-60 minute video call with the Engineering Manager and Head of Engineering to delve into workflow, mindset, and AI tool usage.
* The "Agent" Test: A live technical task where you’ll use Claude Code (or your preferred agent) to solve a complex requirement or refactor code.
* Final Stage: 45-60 minute interview with the broader team and People Team to assess collaboration and "Learning in the open."
We design this to be a two-way conversation. Come with questions — we want you to leave knowing whether this is the right move for you.
We also use AI tools to support our hiring process — not to make decisions, but to help us run a fairer, faster process. You can read more about how we approach that here, including tips for how you can use AI to prepare.
What we offer
We’ve also built a benefits package that invests in our people’s long-term personal and professional growth and wellbeing. Here’s a sample of what this includes:
* Salary £60,000-£80,000, depending on experience and location, plus stock options for every employee
* 30 days of holiday annually, plus bank holidays
* Private healthcare for you and your family, including pre-existing conditions
* Life insurance at 3x your salary
* 13 weeks parental leave at full pay for new parents
* Workplace nursery scheme with Gogeta, allowing you to pay fees pre-tax
* Ride to work scheme
* Workplace pension scheme to help you save for retirement
* Flexible working hours to suit your lifestyle
* £500 annual personal training allowance plus regular learning opportunities on a variety of topics
* £40 monthly wellbeing to keep you healthy
* 24/7 Employee Assistance Program, covering you and immediate family members—offering crisis support, counselling, legal advice, menopause CBT, and more
* Unlimited AI usage with Claude and Gemini
Working here
You’ll do well here if you:
🚀 Move through ambiguity without waiting for a perfect brief
👊 Take ownership of outcomes, not just tasks
âš¡ Adapt quickly when priorities shift, and help others do the same
🔧 Look for ways to improve how things work, not just how to complete them
🧠Use tools, data, and colleagues to make better decisions
This probably isn’t the right fit if you:
📋 Prefer clearly defined processes and a stable, slow-moving environment
🚧 Are most comfortable staying within the boundaries of your job description
🔄 Find frequent context-switching draining rather than energising
Inclusion and flexibility
INSHUR is committed to building a team where everyone can bring their full self to work. We follow a structured hiring process and train our interview teams to support fairness and reduce bias.
We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, colour, religion, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, or age.
This role is advertised as full-time. We’re open to discussing part-time, job-sharing, or other flexible arrangements for the right person.
If you need any adjustments during the process, let us know and we’ll do our best to accommodate.
