Backend Engineer Cuvva London, United Kingdom Ā£75,000 to Ā£90,000 a year
August 2021

Job Description
About Cuvva
Cuvva is making car insurance radically better.
Weāre creating truly flexible products that meet peopleās real needs. Using lightning-fast technology to unlock better experiences and fairer prices for our customers, Cuvva is building the future of insurance every day.
Cuvva was the first UK company to sell hourly insurance through an app. Since then weāve sold over 3 million policies and supported over 450,000 customers. Weāre a world-class team of over 100 people, passionate about solving our customersā problems. Join us.
Why work for Cuvva?
We donāt cut corners. We strive to do the right thing, even when that makes life more difficult for us.
We are customer centric and everyone in every area of the businessāincluding our CEO & Founder Freddyāis expected to spend a few hours a month on customer support. This is so we all fully understand customer needs and how the app works! Hereās a blog post on our āCops Clubā.
Weāve nurtured an awesome team culture. We always speak up when we have an idea - but also know when to let go and get behind something else.
And weāre comfortable giving and receiving honest feedback, and trying new ways of doing things.
Weāre building a diverse team from different backgrounds, outlooks and experiences. Everyone is given a fair chance of getting a role at Cuvva. Even if you secretly donāt love insurance, trust us, youāll love what weāre building.
About the role
Youāll work in one of our cross-functional product squads, helping the team achieve their goals - whether thatās building a new service in our backend platform, creating a new version of an existing API to deliver a new feature, or creating a CLI tool to automate something.
We work in a highly collaborative fashion, and maintain an open and transparent work environment. Engineers at Cuvva donāt just write code or implement against a spec. Youāll be expected and encouraged to take part in the entire product development process from problem-discovery to solution design, to implementation and rollout.
Each product squad autonomously owns an area of the Cuvva product. Squads are made up of engineers from multiple disciplines (backend, web, iOS, Android), product and content designers, and a product manager. Engineers at Cuvva come from a variety of backgrounds and have different but complementary skill sets. We donāt require a computer science degree - many of us are self-taught.
Our approach
We value consistently-written, simple, resilient systems. Our backend is made up of many standalone services with a JSON-based RPC interface. We aim to create a client-agnostic API design suitable for a variety of clients (mobile apps, website, internal tooling, 3rd parties). Because weāre a regulated financial company, we have interesting and rigorous requirements to meet with regards to data security and auditability.
Most systems are written in Go (some older ones are Javascript), backed by either Postgres or Mongo, and are hosted in a container environment. We heavily lean on AWS tooling such as S3, Lambda, and SQS, and we occasionally build integrations with more ālegacyā 3rd party systems in the insurance industry.
You can find out more about our backend systems here:
Our libraries and Go tooling is open sourced on GitHub

You'll do great here if you:

ā¢ Enjoy working as a team to solve problems collaboratively
ā¢ Have around 5 years of experience building rock-solid backend systems and APIs
ā¢ Have a track record of shipping great quality code with real customer impact
ā¢ Be comfortable and productive working with Go
ā¢Ā We donāt require commercial Go experience but you would be expected to have a basic understanding and a willingness to learn
ā¢ Having a background with at least one statically-typed language is a good sign
ā¢Ā Know your way around the major AWS services (or similar cloud services), and have an enthusiasm for cloud services in general
ā¢Ā Be comfortable working with containers (e.g. Docker, K8S, ECR, container based CI platforms)
Perks & Benefits
