The Role at a glance

At its heart, this is a versatile front-end engineering role with immediate impact and significant career growth potential. Working alongside our Platform Leadership team and senior engineers, a major focus of your day-to-day will be configuring and launching custom partner setups—owning the custom theming, front-end configurations, and cloud deployment steps required to roll out white-labeled insurance solutions for our clients. This role offers a clear path to expand your engineering capabilities in a cloud-first ecosystem, giving you hands-on experience deploying within AWS, configuring Terraform infrastructure, and touching backend microservices as you grow.  

What you will do

• Partner Setups & Configuration: Own the front-end configurations and custom theming required to seamlessly set up and deploy white-labeled platform instances for enterprise automotive clients
• Build & Maintain UI: Write clean, production-ready React code and utilise modern CSS to build accessible, reusable UI components within our established design system
• Cloud & Cross-Functional Execution: Deploy and manage configurations within our cloud-first AWS environment, using internal guides to touch AWS Lambdas, Terraform, and Kotlin microservices to support end-to-end partner rollouts
• Collaborate Remotely: Partner asynchronously with designers to ensure themes match client brand guidelines, and collaborate with backend engineers via code reviews and Slack to integrate APIs
• Drive Continuous Growth: Propose improvements to partner setup workflows, front-end tooling, and theming architectures while actively developing your full-stack and cloud engineering skill set

What good looks like

• First 30 Days: You have onboarded into our React codebase, set up your local development environment, and shipped your first partner setup configuration or UI component under the guidance of senior team members
• First 90 Days: You are independently configuring enterprise partner setups, building reusable React components, and making deployments to AWS test/staging environments using our internal DevOps tooling and guides
• First 6 Months: You are confidently driving custom partner rollouts end-to-end, expanding your cloud-first skills across AWS Lambdas and Terraform, and contributing to improvements in our platform’s configuration architecture

About you 

• Experience & Education: Degree in Computer Science, STEM field, or equivalent practical industry experience, plus 1 to 2 years of commercial software engineering experience
• React & Modern UI: Commercial experience building applications with React, including hooks and state management. Deep understanding of HTML, modern CSS (variables, layout modules, Tailwind, or CSS-in-JS), and JavaScript (ES6+)
• Cloud-First Exposure: Hands-on experience or strong working knowledge of cloud-first ecosystems, with the desire and ability to deploy applications in AWS environments
• Design Translation: A strong eye for UI/UX principles and a track record of translating Figma designs into pixel-perfect, accessible, responsive partner applications
• Engineering Mindset & Growth: Eager to learn and expand beyond traditional front-end boundaries into cloud infrastructure (AWS/Terraform) and backend code (Kotlin microservices)
• Remote Autonomy & Communication: Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English. You thrive in a remote/hybrid environment, manage your time independently, and know how to unblock yourself asynchronously
• Languages & Bonus Skills: German fluency is a strong advantage. Prior experience with TypeScript, CI/CD pipelines, Docker, or Backend for Frontend (BFF) patterns is a bonus.

What we Offer:

• High-Impact Engineering: Direct ownership of white-labeled partner setups powering digital insurance platforms for global automotive leaders
• Career Growth & Upskilling: Ample opportunity and mentorship to evolve your technical breadth across cloud infrastructure (AWS), backend microservices, and modern DevOps
• Modern, Pragmatic Tech Culture: Work with an elegant stack (React, TypeScript, Kotlin, AWS, Terraform). We value clean code, accessible UI, strong testing paradigms, and continuous delivery
• Tech-First Autonomy: Collaborate directly with an experienced Tech Leadership Team in a flat hierarchy where your ideas are heard and executed
• Competitive Compensation & Top-Tier Kit: A highly competitive remuneration package, paired with the latest hardware (high-spec MacBook Pro) and software tools
• True Hybrid Flexibility: A balanced approach to remote and in-office work in Vienna, combined with an international reach across London, Munich, and Delhi.
