Do you have the skills and drive to join a tech team that’s working to digitally transform a trillion-dollar industry? From test-driving the latest technologies to creating intuitive consumer apps, Liberty Mutual is constantly innovating and creating industry-leading solutions that deliver peace of mind for customers worldwide.

Hiring Manager: Ben Bailey, USRM TECH, Product Prop & Spec Tech

Job introduction:

The Q&I Modernization Platform within in USRM Product Property & Specialty Tech is where we design, build, and evolve modern, best-in-class Platform software solutions for Personal Lines insurance products to support the Independent Agent experience and Sales & Service process.

The team is looking to hire a Principal Software Engineer, with a focus on AWS technologies, who will apply their talent in a hybrid agile environment that has the creative and technical passion of a start-up and the full backing and comprehensive benefits of a Fortune 100 company.

This is a fast-paced role where you’ll rapidly iterate and deliver on software, while bringing your talents to the table as a strategic shaper of our success. You will be working in a highly collaborative, team-oriented environment that values speed and quality, with a strong focus on driving continuous improvement.

We encourage you to apply and bring your expertise if you’re a:

  • Technical problem solver: Going far beyond simply developing error-free source code, test scripts, components and system architectures, you’ll document and build deployment guides aimed at maintaining robust, relevant software
  • Customer-centric engineer: Putting clients’ needs first, you’ll translate customer requirements into technical applications and support the implementation of new software
  • Motivated mentor: Exercise your technical chops while coaching and collaborating with junior software engineers.
  • Forward thinker: Merely fixing a problem isn’t enough – using your proactive mindset and initiative, you’ll also identify opportunities to enhance performance, quality and efficiency
