Senior Full-stack Software Engineer - San Francisco - Kettle
Description
About Us And Position Overview
Kettle is a fast growing Managing General Agency (MGA) specializing in wildfire insurance combining advanced underwriting technology with deep industry experience.
We're looking for a Senior Full-stack Software Engineer with strong DevOps experience and front-end abilities to join our engineering team. In this role, you will architect, build, and maintain core systems across our AWS-based stack, contribute to front-end product development, and help scale Kettle's engineering infrastructure as we grow. This is a hands‑on Senior IC role. You'll start by shipping and improving systems directly, with scope and ownership expanding as you ramp.
You'll work closely with data engineering, modeling, risk, and product teams to deliver performant, reliable, and secure systems that support our underwriting platform and geospatial analytics tools.
The salary range for this role is $140,000-180,000.
Why this role exists
As Kettle grows, our engineering systems are becoming more central to underwriting, mapping, and data science workflows. We are a small, senior engineering team where backend and modeling capabilities are strong, but we are looking to further elevate our infrastructure, DevOps posture, and front-end tooling as our platform scales.
Today, much of the system works well and supports real underwriting decisions in production. However, as usage increases, we need to improve deployment reliability, observability, infrastructure consistency, and the overall developer experience. This role exists to help us proactively strengthen those foundations rather than reacting to scale challenges later.
We are looking for a senior engineer who can improve the reliability, scalability, and developer experience of our AWS-based platform while also contributing to the internal tools and interfaces used by underwriting and risk teams every day.
This is a product‑minded engineer who is comfortable across the stack, with primary strength in infrastructure, followed by front‑end tooling, and backend systems. You will have meaningful autonomy in shaping how we deploy, monitor, and evolve our systems, and will play a key role in raising the engineering bar as we grow.
