About Zego

Insurance hasn't changed much in over a century. The way we live, work and travel has.

Good drivers are the entire point of Zego. Seven in 10 drivers on the road are consistently good, but until telematics came along there was no way to prove it, so nearly everyone paid a price based on averages. Zego is the company built to change that.

At Zego, we're leading the AI evolution in insurance.

We move fast, without the layers that usually slow things down. AI takes the routine work off every team, from Finance to Product to Marketing, so people ship real code and launch custom dashboards in minutes. Engineering commits are entirely AI-assisted, which shifts the focus from team size to the quality of your thinking and our data warehouse connects directly to an AI assistant for instant answers. Backed by a modern tech stack (Claude Code, Snowflake, Figma and Zapier) and a commitment to adopting new tools in days rather than quarters, you get complete ownership to do the most impactful work of your career.

What you will be doing

• Translate business needs into clear, well scoped requirements, so every model you build answers a question someone is actually asking
• Build and maintain robust data models and exposures in dbt, Snowflake and Looker - using AI-assisted development to spend less time on boilerplate and more on specifying intent, reviewing and refining
• Review and debug SQL critically, including AI-generated code, so we ship only models we can trust and document the decisions and trade-offs behind them
• Extend the trust infrastructure of tests, data contracts and observability that keeps our models and pipelines reliable and stable
• Integrate data from third-party sources such as Amplitude, Segment and Google Ads and create secure, efficient data shares for external partners
• Enable self-service in our BI tools, so business users answer their own questions instead of queuing for the data team
• Improve our data platform, tooling and ways of working, including how the team puts AI to work

What you will need to be successful

• Analytics engineering experience - Around 1 to 3 years as an Analytics Engineer or in a similar role
• Solid SQL - You are comfortable reading, writing, debugging and critically reviewing queries, including AI-generated ones
• Modern data platforms - Familiarity with tools such as Snowflake, dbt, Looker, AWS or GCP, version control with Git and ideally some Python for data or analytics engineering tasks
• A meticulous eye for detail - Strong problem-solving instincts and a healthy habit of asking whether a number is actually right, not just whether the query ran
• Commercial curiosity - An interest in the why behind the numbers and the ability to connect data work to business outcomes
• You work AI-first - You will use AI daily here, and we mean daily. You do not need to arrive an expert, but you do need to arrive curious, experiment fast, and take ownership of getting good quickly. People who wait to be trained will find this uncomfortable

The Zego ways of working

Teams work better with time to collaborate and space to get things done. We call it Zego Hybrid: some of us are in our central London office weekly, others monthly or quarterly. It is about finding the balance between face time and focus that produces great work and a healthy life around it.

We also make a point of getting everyone in the same room. Teams come together every quarter and once a year the whole company does, properly. It is a serious investment and consistently one of the best parts of the year - Here is what the last one looked like.

Benefits

• Market-competitive salary, benchmarked against your function and reviewed every year
• Annual performance bonus, linked to company performance and your contribution
• Share options, a real stake in the company and a share in the future you build
• Private medical insurance, for you and your family
• Pension, generous holiday and £1,000 a year to spend on getting to the office or learning something new
• Cutting-edge systems and tools, so you always have what you need to drive your impact

If you're ready to help build the real-time, data-driven infrastructure for an intelligent world, we want to hear from you.
