Job Summary:
Covenir is a BPO partner to insurance carriers — and increasingly, a technology company that happens to serve them. The Platform is how that shows up day to day: modules spanning Print, Call Center, Virtual Mailroom, and Premium & Lockbox, built with an AI-assisted, 80/20 development model where AI handles the first draft and people handle the judgment. Software Developer II is a mid-level seat on that team, working alongside other developers under the R&D Manager. The Platform — spanning Print, Call Center, Virtual Mailroom, and Premium & Lockbox — is this role’s current top priority, though scope shifts to Covenir’s broader development needs as priorities evolve. You’ll apply Covenir’s 80/20 development model to move fast from idea to working module without cutting corners on production quality.
Job Description:
How Covenir’s Values Show Up in This Role
- Committed to WOW our Customers: You build features knowing Operations, carriers, or teammates will lean on them daily — you test the edge cases, not just the happy path.
- Great Just Isn’t Good Enough: Shipping isn’t the finish line. You look back at your own modules and ask what would make them faster, cleaner, or more resilient.
- One Team, One Goal: You mentor Developer I’s work when asked and pull in senior developers when you’re stuck — you don’t let a blocker sit quietly.
- Passion for Excellence: Your pull requests are ones a senior developer can approve with confidence, not ones that need a rewrite.
What You’ll Do
- Design and build production features on The Platform in JavaScript/Node.js, C#, or an equivalent language
- Write and optimize SQL and relational database logic (Azure SQL/AWS DB)
- Use Azure cloud services (Container Apps, Blob Storage, Azure AI/OpenAI services) as part of feature delivery
- Apply AI-assisted development to complete most implementation work, refining and verifying the rest
- Lead small development initiatives or design sessions with guidance from senior developers
- Mentor Software Developer I on platform development practices
- Manage multiple tasks or projects at once and meet deadlines without sacrificing quality
- Follow Agile sprint assignments, focusing on the most critical projects set by the R&D Manager
Requirements
- 3+ years of professional software development experience, including production work in JavaScript/Node.js, C#, or an equivalent modern language
- Proficient SQL and relational database design experience (Azure SQL, AWS DB, or equivalent)
- Working knowledge of cloud services such as Azure Container Apps, Blob Storage, or equivalent
- Working knowledge of authentication and access frameworks (Auth0, two-factor authentication, role-based access control)
- Fundamental knowledge of insurance BPO business processes across Print, Call Center, Virtual Mailroom, and Premium & Lockbox
- Proficient understanding of The Platform’s architecture, core modules, AI/API sandbox, and customer-facing portal, along with Covenir’s development standards and coding practices
- Experience with Git/GitHub and CI/CD-based deployment
- Comfortable using AI-assisted development tools as a core part of daily workflow
- Ability to create clear, concise technical and test documentation for platform modules
- Experience mentoring or supporting less experienced developers is a plus
- Completes Software Developer I onboarding requirements and SOC compliance/data-security training, and passes Covenir’s internal development standards review
- Bachelor’s degree in computer science or a related field, or equivalent professional experience
- Performs other duties as assigned by the R&D Manager in support of Covenir’s broader business needs
What an A Player Looks Like
- Ships without babysitting. A players take a feature from idea to production with minimal handholding, checking in at the right moments instead of every step.
- AI-fluent, not AI-dependent. A players move fast with AI-assisted tools but still know why the code works and can defend it in review.
- Mentors without being asked twice. When Developer I gets stuck, A players jump in — not because it’s assigned, but because that’s how the team gets better.
- Comfortable with ambiguity. Requirements aren’t always fully defined. A players ask the right clarifying questions and move, rather than waiting for a perfect spec.
- Owns the production quality bar. A players test edge cases, think about what breaks under load, and don’t treat “it works on my machine” as done.
- Speaks up early. If a design or deadline doesn’t make sense, A players raise it constructively and early, not after the sprint has failed.
Is This Role For You?
Strong fit
- 3+ years of hands-on development experience,
- comfortable owning a feature end to end
- Proficient with JavaScript/Node.js, C#, or an
- equivalent language, and SQL/relational databases
- Enjoys mentoring more junior developers without
- needing to be asked
- Comfortable with AI-assisted development tools and
- confident explaining the resulting code
Skip this role if
- You want fully scoped tickets with no ambiguity or ownership • You’re not interested in mentoring or supporting Developer I
- You’re uncomfortable with priorities shifting mid-sprint
- You’d rather avoid AI-assisted tools than integrate them into your workflow
