Software Engineer (Crop)

Location: Remote

The Details:

We're looking for a Software Engineer to take ownership of the systems that power our crop insurance claims platform. You'll design, develop, and maintain features used daily by claims adjusters, underwriters, and operations staff — translating complex insurance policies and regulatory requirements into reliable, well-tested code.

What sets this role apart is its focus on MPCI and private product claims, which operate within a detailed and frequently updated regulatory environment. The ideal candidate brings real domain knowledge: how claims are processed end to end, the roles of PASS and NCIS, why data and calculation errors carry serious downstream consequences, and how to trace operational issues back to their root in policy, data, or logic. That expertise means you can work independently, move fast, and build precise solutions — without needing to ramp up on industry fundamentals.

What will you do:

• Develop the claims platform. Build and maintain full-stack features for our claims processing platform using Node.js, TypeScript, Vue.js, HTML, and CSS — covering everything from back-end business logic and API design to the front-end interfaces that claims teams use day to day.
• Translate regulatory requirements into code. Read and interpret government publications, FCIC/RMA handbooks, Loss Adjustment Manuals, and third-party procedural documentation. Translate that material into accurate technical requirements, data models, and application logic — and use it to validate or debug existing behavior.
• Investigate and resolve PASS and NCIS errors. When PASS errors or NCIS discrepancies surface in production, investigate the transaction, identify the root cause — data, integration, logic, or a misapplied regulatory rule — and implement a tested fix. This is a support and engineering function performed alongside operations staff, not a claims adjustment function.
• Collaborate with stakeholders. Work closely with claims adjusters, underwriters, and operations staff to understand their workflows, surface requirements, and ensure that what gets built solves the right problem.
• Test, review, and secure. Write unit and integration tests for your own code, participate in code review, and maintain quality standards across the codeb
