Role Description
Backed by the world's leading investors, Newfront is a fast-growing startup modernizing the $500bn+ insurance industry by supercharging brokers with technology. At our office in San Francisco, you'll have the opportunity to join a talented team of engineers with a singular focus: to bring an otherwise legacy industry into the 21st century.
Our business is built on the idea that there are certain tasks that humans do really well and others that are better suited for computers. We supercharge our brokers so that they can focus on the highest-value work and use technology for everything else. This includes using React to build a beautiful dashboard for clients, machine learning to structure PDF documents, and Phantom.js scripts to pass data to insurance carriers.
About Newfront Insurance
From the Mayflower to the moon landing, every venture relies on insurance. The 1trillion dollar insurance industry is fundamental to our economy, but it has been slow to modernize. It’s a fragmented market (where the largest player only holds a single-digit market share) that represents an enormous opportunity. At Newfront, we provide comprehensive risk management powered by advanced technology and a client-obsessed culture.
Our unique approach recognizes both the vast potential of technology and the fundamental role of expert advice and trusted relationships. While we’re a technology-driven company, we believe that people matter most. Our mission is to define the future of the insurance industry by leveraging modern technology that empowers people with information and delivers world-class service to our clients.
We’re the fastest-growing brokerage in the country because we’re built for the 21st century.
Company Culture
Complex challenges The insurance market presents unique and engaging business, operations, and engineering challenges.
Collaborative spirit We’re building a brokerage from the ground up, which means our teams work together daily to solve problems across a wide variety of domains.
Real value, real impact Insurance offers businesses and individuals the security they need to pursue opportunities. On a macro-level, the industry helps to stabilize the global economy.
Huge opportunity Insurance premiums represent over $500 billion of annual spend by US companies alone. We’re targeting the biggest piece of an enormous market.
Work with top talent We’re thoughtful and selective in our hiring. We believe that every candidate who receives an offer should raise the bar for our entire team.
Our Values: Empower People It’s people who make insurance work, and our vision of the future has people at the center of the industry.
Ambition We’re modernizing an industry that has resisted change for so long. This is a serious challenge and we’re excited to take it on.
Question Dogma Our industry has baggage and we wouldn’t be here if we didn’t think we could shake off some of that weight.
New Standards We hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards because a modern brokerage means more than better tools and service.
