    Product Engineer - San Francisco, United States - Ascend

    Default job background
    Description

    What we do

    Ascend is a fintech firm that focuses on creating financial solutions for the insurance market, which accounts for a significant share of the global economy. The traditional methods used in this sector, such as paper checks, lead to inefficiencies and a subpar user experience. Ascend, established in 2021, is pioneering a modern payment platform tailored for the insurance industry, driving its digital transformation.

    Key Achievements:

    • Attracted a diverse clientele, including major insurance distributors and Insurtech companies
    • Facilitated transactions worth millions
    • Recognized as a top player in the Insurtech space
    • Assembled a talented team with dual bases in San Francisco and Columbus

    How we do it

    Ascend streamlines insurance payments by automating the entire process, from online payments to commissions distribution. By doing so, insurance providers can ditch outdated practices, enhance customer experience, and ensure a smoother financial workflow. It's like having a blend of Stripe, Affirm, and Modern Treasury, tailored for the insurance sector.

    Why we do it

    Our mission is to simplify insurance-related financial processes, making it more accessible and efficient for individuals to safeguard their assets.

    Your Role

    We are searching for talented full-stack, product-focused engineers to spearhead product innovation and quality. This role demands ownership of product segments and challenges. Join our San Francisco team to contribute to the enhancement of our core product.

    As a Product Engineer at Ascend, you'll be part of a dynamic team dedicated to tackling intricate technical hurdles using Ruby. You'll engage with customers directly and collaborate across departments to enhance product features and processes.

    Responsibilities:

    • Developing applications using Rails/Javascript
    • Collaborating with teams to define and build products
    • Assisting in designing and implementing technical architecture

    Desired Qualifications:

    • Over 5 years of experience as a Full Stack or Backend Web Developer
    • Proficiency in relational databases
    • Track record in building and scaling consumer products
    • Strong willingness to learn and solve business challenges

    Preferred Skills:

    • Interest in Ruby on Rails
    • Experience in creating external APIs & integrations like Salesforce
    • Background in developing payment, checkout, or insurance products

    Tech Stack & Processes:

    • Ruby on Rails API hosted on Heroku
    • Typescript hosted on Vercel
    • Tailwind CSS for Front-End
    • Postgres + Redis for Storage
    • Continuous integration & delivery
    • Benefits:

      • Competitive salary and equity in a rapidly growing organization
      • Full health coverage for you and your dependents
      • 401k with matching options
      • Generous PTO policy
      • Company-paid commuter benefits and fitness stipends
      • Parental and family leave
      • Team lunches and outings

      Don't hesitate to reach out, even if you don't perfectly fit the criteria. Overcoming imposter syndrome and stepping out of your comfort zone can lead to valuable connections and growth opportunities.

      Equal Opportunity:

      We embrace diversity and provide equal opportunities to all qualified candidates, regardless of background. Discrimination of any form is not tolerated. Proof of COVID vaccination is mandatory for all on-site employees and visitors as part of our safety measures.
