Our API-first solution allows any merchant to offer extended warranties and protection plans, both online and offline, while also providing a merchant's end customers with a vastly improved and modern support experience that eliminates many of the issues customers face today with legacy underwriters.

Encourage innovation and foster an environment of continuous improvement. Identify risks and aid in implementing process and implementation improvements in the overall platform. Provide code reviews for sensitive code bases with a focus on code quality and secure implementation.

Must be well organized, able to thrive in a fast-paced startup environment, must have the ability to approach problems with a collaborative, team-player attitude.
