Our client is a European insurtech company providing digital insurance solutions and embedded protection products, enabling seamless integration of insurance offerings into e-commerce and financial platforms across multiple markets.
Responsibilities
Design and build high-performance services: Design, develop, and maintain scalable APIs (gRPC and REST) powering core insurance services, taking ownership of complex services and their evolution.
Own delivery at system level: Lead microservices and larger system components end-to-end — from requirements and architecture through implementation, deployment, and operational ownership in production.
Contribute to technical direction: Provide input on technology choices, design patterns, and service boundaries; participate in architecture discussions led by Tech Leads and Architects.
Mentor and elevate the team: Coach mid-level and junior engineers through design reviews, pairing, and constructive code reviews; raise the engineering bar across the team.
Champion engineering excellence: Establish and enforce best practices in automated testing, observability (tracing, logging, metrics), CI/CD, and operational readiness.
Lead in production: Act as a senior escalation point for complex incidents; drive root-cause analysis, reliability improvements, and cost/performance optimization.
Ensure compliance and security: Embed security policies, coding standards, and regulatory requirements of the financial and insurance sector into design decisions from the start.
Must Have
8+ years of backend development experience, with 5+ years working with Golang in production
Proven track record designing and evolving gRPC and REST-based APIs at scale, including ownership of complex service-level design decisions
Expert-level understanding of distributed systems, microservices architectures, event-driven design, and cloud-native patterns
Hands-on experience with containerization (Docker), orchestration (Kubernetes), and modern DevOps workflows, including production troubleshooting at scale
Strong experience with PostgreSQL (data modeling, performance tuning) and message queues (e.g., Kafka, RabbitMQ)
Demonstrated experience mentoring engineers and driving adoption of engineering best practices across a team
Strong problem-solving skills and a passion for building clean, efficient, and maintainable systems
Regular use of AI tools to improve productivity, automate or reduce repetitive work, support decision-making, and deliver higher-quality outcomes
Ability to use AI tools responsibly by structuring effective prompts, critically validating outputs, understanding limitations, and taking ownership of the final result — and to guide others in doing the same
Excellent English communication skills, including the ability to communicate design decisions to technical and non-technical stakeholders, and to thrive in a fast-paced, agile environment
Nice to Have
Experience in the insurance, fintech, or broader financial services domain
Deep familiarity with observability tooling (e.g., Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Jaeger)
Experience with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, GCP, Azure), ideally including cost optimization
Knowledge of infrastructure as code (e.g., Terraform, Helm)
Experience leading technical initiatives across multiple teams or contributing to platform-level decisions
German language skills are a plus

At Accesa you can
Enjoy our holistic benefits program that covers the four pillars that we believe come together to support our wellbeing, covering social, physical, emotional wellbeing, as well as work-life fusion.
Physical Wellbeing: Our wellbeing program includes medical benefits, gym support, and personalised fitness options for an active lifestyle, complemented by team events and the Healthy Habits Club.
Work-Life Fusion: In very dynamic industries such as IT, the line between our professional and personal lives can quickly become blurred. Having a one-size-fits-one approach gives us the flexibility to define the work-life dynamic that works for us.
Emotional Wellbeing: We believe that to maintain our overall health, we need to invest in our mental wellbeing just as much as we do in our physical health, social connections or in achieving work-life balance.
Social Wellbeing: As a growing community in a hybrid environment, we want to ensure we remain connected not just by the great work we do every day but through our passions and interests.
