Hippo was built on a promise: make homeownership effortless. Nearly a decade later, that mission still drives us. We use technology and data to help our customers stay ahead of problems and protect what matters most.

Today, that same tech-native approach powers our work beyond homeowners. Hippo operates as a diversified carrier platform, partnering with MGAs to deliver tailored program solutions that help them grow and deliver better customer experiences. Behind that work is a team that values ownership, curiosity, collaboration, and continuous improvement.

If you're energized by building what's next, we'd love to meet you.

You'll implement backends and their interactions with various data stores and other APIs (including 3rd party APIs). You'll work in an agile environment focusing on projects that are impactful on our business. You'll support reliable databases and APIs for real-time automated decision-making. You'll deploy your software using industry-standard tooling like Kubernetes clusters, and Lambda functions. You'll investigate and resolve production issues by analyzing code, data, and system behavior and then propose and implement timely fixes to minimize user impact. You'll care deeply about security in everything you do and constantly raise the baseline of how we defend our user's data against external threats and themselves. You'll implement robust automated test suites to ensure high quality and low failure rate of delivered code. You’ll put your mark on final designs by writing and reviewing technical design documents. You'll work closely with Product Managers, Senior and Staff Engineers to understand business processes, rules, and requirements, and turn them into high-quality code with automated tests, and deploy them to production. You’ll have a lot of chances to develop your programming skills as well as learn a lot about how tech business is done in the US (if you want to).

Hands-on experience with Node.js, JavaScript, and TypeScript. A good, practical knowledge of at least one relational database system, e.g. PostgreSQL/MySQL/SQL Server.
