Vertafore is a leading technology company whose innovative software solutions are advancing the insurance industry. Our suite of products provides solutions to our customers that help them better manage their business, boost their productivity and efficiencies, and lower costs while strengthening relationships.
Our mission is to move InsurTech forward by putting people at the heart of the industry. We are leading the way with product innovation, technology partnerships, and focusing on customer success.
As a Sr. Software Engineer, you will shape and improve the experience of key Vertafore customers. You will work cross-functionally across Vertafore, including Customer Support, Account Management, Product Management, and Product Development to help guide customers and also contribute to the future growth of your team.
You will work with a fast-paced, skilled team of business analysts, conversion engineers, developers, and quality assurance engineers across multiple high-profile projects. Much of your success in this role will depend upon timely, clear, concise, and effective verbal and written communication along with developing solutions that fully meet customer expectations with no/minimal defects or rework.
Although not a primary duty compared to developing and supporting code, a software engineer at Vertafore also works directly with customers as part of a cross-functional team. This means you need to be a proactive self-starter, able to multi-task in a fast-paced environment and be service-focused to help nurture the customer experience. Additionally, you're a mentor and consultant, as well as a customer champion within Vertafore.
