Assured is on a mission to modernize insurance. Claims processing (i.e. should we pay this claim?), while often overlooked, is the foundation of the entire industry. It’s currently highly manual, involving phone calls, faxes, and gut instinct, costing tens of billions of dollars a year. We can do better.
At Assured, we provide large insurers with the software solutions they need to win in a modern, technology-driven world. From self-service claim-filing software to backend fraud detection, we’re the engine that powers claims processing for some of the largest insurers in the world.
The challenges we face are deep and diverse, from creating digital experiences that provide comfort and clarity to claimants at their most stressed and vulnerable to orchestrating large-scale ML-driven decision-making on billions of dollars of claims payments, life at Assured is dynamic, collaborative, and rewarding.
We're looking for a Senior IT Engineer to be the first point of contact in supporting our employees at Assured. Reporting to the IT Manager, you'll play a key part in keeping our day-to-day IT Operations running smoothly and help everyone on the team get the technology and access they need to do their best work. You'll guide new hires through their first day setup, solve technical problems as they come up, and help us build better systems along the way. This role is a chance to directly improve how people work and feel supported at Assured.
