About the Role

As a Software Engineer at Cara, you’ll work across the stack to design and build the systems that power our AI platform-from intuitive user interfaces to backend services and AI infrastructure. You’ll develop product features, build tailored solutions for mid-market and enterprise clients, and strengthen our platform to ensure performance, reliability, and security.

This is a hands-on role with broad ownership, where you’ll collaborate closely with product, AI, and go-to-market teams to turn complex insurance workflows into simple, automated experiences. You’ll be working directly with the founders and customers to shape the roadmap, product, and technology.

  • Full-Stack Product Engineering: Ideate, design, implement, and ship new features across the stack-from frontend user interfaces, to backend APIs and services, to critical infrastructure.
  • Enterprise Solutions: Collaborate directly with customers to design and deliver solutions tailored to their business processes while integrating those features seamlessly into the broader platform.
  • Platform Development: Strengthen our core systems, including AI and compute infrastructure, asynchronous processing, observability, and operations.
  • Performance: Measure, optimize, and reinvent production systems to deliver best-in-class speed and performance for AI workflows.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Research cutting technologies and partner with the go-to-market team to break down customer requirements, prioritize and build product roadmaps, and deliver impactful solutions.

What You Have

  • 3+ years of full-stack software engineering experience-designing and shipping features through the complete product lifecycle.
  • Proficiency in Golang, Typescript, and React with a strong foundation in computer science and software development.
  • Proficiency in AI concepts, APIs, workflows, and tools.
  • Proven ability to learn, adapt, and ship impactful features in a fast-paced environment.
  • Thrives in ambiguous environments to deliver robust, thoughtful solutions.
