Your Next Challenge
As a Principal Java Engineer, you will join a team who are involved in improving the performance of one the company’s key products – the Auction product. This product allows the insurance carriers to find their perfect customer – and without this key component, there would be no match and no revenue! The platform was created in the first days of EverQuote – by their team of MIT educated whizz-kids in Boston – and whilst it has helped the company get to where they are now – the time has come to re-platform and modernise the product to allow for scaling and efficiency. The company is at a critical time in its evolution – help take this early to mid-stage tech company to full maturity!

Your Skills + Aspirations
The Principal Engineer role requires a strong Java / Kotlin development background (5-7 years), supporting cloud platforms at scale (AWS). You have strong design principle exposure and experience digging out of legacy systems. Ideally you are currently operating at Principal level and wish to continue developing this skill set as an individual contributor in the next few years. You will be supported by a highly talented leader who ‘leads from the code’ and thrives off progressing his engineers.
