About Rainbow

Rainbow is a fully digital insurance company focused on small businesses. Founded in early 2022, we have experienced massive growth over the last year—over 3x revenue growth, expanded offerings, and a successful Series A from leading investors in the space.

We develop our own unique insurance products from the ground up, combining innovative solutions with software that automates the process of getting covered and filing claims. In addition, we empower business owners with tools to help them operate with reduced risk.

Our founding team has a proven track record in Insurtech and product development, having built a startup that scaled to 50 employees, served some of the largest insurance companies in the world, and raised over $40M in venture capital.

At Rainbow, we are committed to building a world-class product and engineering culture in the Bay Area. While we trust our team to excel independently, we encourage in-person collaboration a few days per week to foster team building and a strong culture.

As a Senior Fullstack Engineer, you will:

• Lead Frontend Architecture: Take ownership of the UI layer, shaping our React and TypeScript architecture to be scalable, maintainable, and performant—especially for features that impact core insurance workflows like rate calculations and quoting.
• Contribute Across the Stack: While your primary strength is in frontend development, you’ll also work across the backend when needed to ensure seamless end-to-end functionality.
• Refine System Integrations: Collaborate closely with engineering and product teams to define and refine system integrations and communication protocols.
• Ship Code Frequently: Embrace an agile approach by shipping code frequently, iterating rapidly, learning from feedback, and refining features to better serve our customers.
• Maintain Code Quality: Continuously refactor and improve the codebase to keep it well-structured, simple, and easy to work with.
• Improve Test Quality: Write well-tested code, and maintain a strong culture of testing by contributing robust unit and regression test coverage.
• Solve Business Challenges: Translate high-level business problems into effective technical solutions, often leveraging direct customer feedback or insights from other teams.

• Effective Communicator & Architect: You can design and articulate technical solutions clearly, securing buy-in from teammates both within and outside of engineering.
