We help carriers, MGAs, and brokers accelerate premium growth, improve risk insights, and drive operational efficiency.\nFounded in 2016, Convr transforms outdated, manual processes into structured, decision-ready workflows. Our modular platform manages underwriting from submission through quote with a purpose-built AI decisioning context engine - grounded in a commercial insurance ontology - ensuring complete data and smarter decisions, faster, while enabling a frictionless experience and superior performance.\nAs we scale, we’re building a team shaping the future of commercial underwriting. Join us in modernizing commercial insurance with modern AI.\nRole Overview: We are looking for a Forward Deployed Software Engineer (FDSE) who thrives at the intersection of high-level architecture and deep-stack technical execution. This isn't a \"one-off\" integration role. You are a hybrid of a software engineer, product strategist, and technical consultant. You will embed with our most strategic customers to solve their most complex problems. However, your mission is dual-purpose: while you deliver immediate value to the customer, you are simultaneously acting as a product scout. You will identify patterns in customer needs and translate those into scalable, core features for our SaaS platform.\nWhat You'll be Doing:\nLead the design and implementation of new features in our core SaaS product. You aren't just building for one user; you are building for the platform.\nWork across the entire stack, from optimizing database queries and API endpoints to crafting intuitive UI/UX.\nArchitect production-ready integrations and workflows. You will lead technical workshops with stakeholders to define \"future state\" solutions.\nWrite high-quality, type-safe, and maintainable code in TypeScript, leveraging modern React and Next.js patterns for performance and scalability.\nPrevent \"bespoke bloat.\" Identify universal customer needs and collaborate with product and engineering teams to bake those into the core technical direction.\nContribute to CI/CD, testing, and performance monitoring to ensure the stability and reliability of your deployments.\nMentor teammates and establish engineering best practices to level up the entire team’s output.\nWho You Are:\nYou think in terms of scalability. When you build a solution for one customer, you’re already thinking about how it could benefit the next ten.\nYou take 100% ownership of the success of your deployments. You don't wait for a ticket; you find the bottleneck and fix it.\nYou are as comfortable whiteboarding a system diagram for a CTO as you are submitting a pull request for a mission-critical API endpoint.\nExperience Requirements:\n7+ years of professional experience in full-stack or frontend development, specifically within SaaS products or startup environments.\nStrong coder with shown proficiency in TypeScript/JavaScript, Python, Java, C++, or similar.\nHands-on experience with Next.js App Router (server components, layouts, streaming, caching).\nExperience with tRPC or equivalent type-safe API frameworks.\nExperience implementing complex, data-heavy views with Tailwind and component libraries (shadcn/ui, Mantine, etc.). Background in UI/UX design or working closely with designers is highly preferred.\nAbility to design scalable systems and a solid understanding of frontend performance, state management, and accessibility.\nExcellent communication skills and the ability to work autonomously, acting as a consultant/partner to our customers while remaining accountable for deliverables.\nFamiliarity with insurance and underwriting operations, gained through prior work in insurtech or with carriers, MGAs, or brokers\nAbility and interest to travel up to 20% as needed to customer sites.\nWhy Join Convr?\nFull Transparency. We believe in open communication with our team and customers.\nWe foster a work-life balance. We believe in flexibly because \"life\" happens!\nTeam mentality. We believe in \"All Hands-on Deck\"! Helping one another regardless of department.\nEveryone knows your name. We are a high growth, dynamic, entrepreneurial company comprised of passionate team members committed to changing the commercial insurance industry. You will not be just a number!\nWe believe in challenging yourself to develop your career.\nWe are a team of experts who strive to be the best!\nBenefits & Compensation\nRemote work opportunities\nFlexible Paid Time Off\nCompany Paid Holidays\nInsurance Coverage (medical, dental, vision, short-term & long-term disability, life insurance, and accident coverage)\n401K\nPaid Parental Leave","description_format":"text","description_chars":4749,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["401k plan","Insurance coverage","Life insurance","Parental leave"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Property & Casualty Insurance","Custom Software Development"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-31T00:28:02Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 5 · green card filings: 2","filings_12m":5,"filings_prev_12m":1,"green_card_filings_12m":2,"median_offered_wage_usd":132500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-29T16:27:21+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)","US Department of Labor: PERM disclosure data (green cards)"],"filings_for_role_12m":0}],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":1,"expected_fill_days":38,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-31T05:58:55Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/convr-forward-deployed-software-engineer","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/convr-forward-deployed-software-engineer.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-01T01:21:01Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":2081,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-02T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":178203},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=178203"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fconvr-forward-deployed-software-engineer"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fconvr-forward-deployed-software-engineer"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fconvr-forward-deployed-software-engineer"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/convr-forward-deployed-software-engineer\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fconvr-forward-deployed-software-engineer"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":3555141}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"convr.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":3555141},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
