About the job

About Farsyt

Farsyt is building AI-driven solutions to reshape insurance services. The team focuses on automation, data, and artificial intelligence to improve how insurance is bought, sold, and managed.

Role Overview

This is a hands-on role as a Founding Engineer or Senior Software Engineer based in Cambridge, MA. Work directly with the founding team to take the core product from early development through launch. The environment is small, venture-backed, and moves quickly. Team members take on broad responsibilities and see their work make a visible impact.

What You Will Do

  • Design and build essential systems, including backend architecture, APIs, and data models.
  • Create workflows powered by AI to automate manual insurance processes.
  • Integrate with external tools and communication systems, often dealing with unreliable or fragmented sources.
  • Develop automation systems using large language models (LLMs), with a focus on reliability and managing failures.
  • Architect and maintain asynchronous, event-driven systems involving queues, workers, and long-running tasks.
  • Deliver results quickly, moving from idea to production in days rather than months.
  • Make key technical decisions that influence the company's direction.

This role offers flexibility and the chance to help define both what gets built and how it is built.
