About Cuvva
Cuvva is making car insurance radically better.
Weâre creating truly flexible products that meet peopleâs 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 weâve sold over 3 million policies and supported over 450,000 customers. Weâre a world-class team of over 100 people, passionate about solving our customersâ problems. Join us.
Why work for Cuvva?
We donât 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 businessâincluding our CEO & Founder Freddyâis 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! Hereâs a blog post on our âCops Clubâ.
Weâve 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 weâre comfortable giving and receiving honest feedback, and trying new ways of doing things.
Weâre 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 donât love insurance, trust us, youâll love what weâre building.
About the role
Youâll work in one of our cross-functional product squads, helping the team achieve their goals - whether thatâs 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 donât just write code or implement against a spec. Youâll 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 donât 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 weâre 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 âlegacyâ 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 âShowing off our K-sortable IDsâ our blog
âHow we analyse and test new pricing modelsâ our blog
âHow we test and roll out new product featuresâ our blog
You'll do great here if you:
⢠Have genuine interest and curiosity about the Cuvva product, and consumer insurance in general
⢠Enjoy working as a team to solve problems collaboratively
⢠Have around 5 years of experience building rock-solid backend systems and APIs
⢠Have a track record of shipping great quality code with real customer impact
⢠Be comfortable and productive working with Go
â˘Â We donât require commercial Go experience but you would be expected to have a basic understanding and a willingness to learn
⢠Having a background with at least one statically-typed language is a good sign
â˘Â Know your way around the major AWS services (or similar cloud services), and have an enthusiasm for cloud services in general
â˘Â Be comfortable working with containers (e.g. Docker, K8S, ECR, container based CI platforms)
Benefits
As well as a competitive salary (ÂŁ75-90k, dependent on experience) and equity based remuneration, benefits of working at Cuvva include:
⢠Brand new MacBook đť
⢠33 days holiday (inc public holidaysđ)
⢠Flexible working
⢠Wellbeing, personal development and work from home budgets
⢠Yearly increases to budgets and holiday allowances
⢠Generous parental leave policy
⢠One-to-one sessions with our Sanctus mental health coaches, giving you a safe space to talk đ§
⢠Access to Lifeworks - our mental health tool and employee assistance programme
⢠Mates rates on your car insurance
⢠Salary sacrifice schemes for electric bike hire and electric car lease
⢠Cycle to work scheme đ˛
⢠Season ticket loans đ
⢠A volunteer day
⢠Office library full of great books đ
⢠Great coffee machine in the office âď¸
⢠Fully stocked beer and soft drink fridge (we do team drinks every Thursday)
⢠Monthly team outings or remote events (so far weâve done things like karaoke, go-karting, bowling and comedy nights) đ¤

We're looking for an experienced Backend Go Software Engineer to join the Geckoboard team!
Every single one of us comes to work every day to do something we love. We get to tackle big problems, but in a way that recognises everyoneâs need to work with dignity and purpose in a supportive and inclusive environment. It's the most wonderful thing. In fact the fun part is trying to figure out all the different ways we can come up with to make data accessible and understandable for everyone. It really is amazing. The best part is that we work in an atmosphere of openness, trust and transparency, where everyone is empowered to learn and flourish. We're actually doing really well. We have a product our customers love.
We're really excited to be growing.
You'll be joining a team of empowered engineers in a supportive environment that values experimentation, work-life balance and personal development. We've built a culture of knowledge sharing and feedback, so you'll be involved in planning and prioritisation of work as well as peer reviews and pair programming.
We work in small and focused cross-functional teams, usually made up of a Product Manager, a Designer, and a mix of Frontend and Backend Engineers. QA and Infrastructure tend to come in at the points they're needed or for specific projects. We scope out our project such that we're able to deliver meaningful work but small enough to iterate and take on board feedback quickly. We encourage our engineers to get involved in different teams and projects based on their interests, skills and opportunities to learn. We're also equally mindful about technical debt and make sure we dedicate time to addressing it.
At Geckoboard, we are seeking to solve a real problem and build a long-lasting product. As a result, we place a high value on a clean and maintainable codebase, and on practices that ensure we can continue to deliver quality software rapidly and iteratively.â¨
Learning is also a big part of our engineering culture. Once every two weeks every team takes a âLab Dayâ, when everyone is free to work on projects that interest them, learn new skills or contribute to open source. We encourage these projects and often they have led to improvements in the way we work or concepts that have then been prioritised, developed further and added to our Product.
Our main frontend application is a large React 16+ codebase and our tests are written with Jest. For communicating with our backend services, we use an Apollo client and query a GraphQL gateway written in Node.js that exposes a single schema but dispatches queries to a number of gRPC services on the backend.
While our backend services are mostly written in Go and run on AWS, the GraphQL gateway is owned by the frontend team, which puts them in the driving seat when it comes to defining the APIs for a new piece of functionality, and provides a single point of reference for both frontend and backend.
While adding features to the product, weâve been building and maintaining an internal React component library with an emphasis on reusability and documentation. Our frontend team is looking to expand this library, with the potential to open source it in the future.
What weâve described sounds interesting
Youâve worked with Go before*
Youâre interested in distributed systems
Youâre collaborative; you empathise, listen and discuss
You actively seek out feedback in your work and to ensure you understand the problem youâre solving
You have experience collaborating on technical decisions in an open and creative environment
You understand the value of automated testing and a test-driven development approach
Right now we're only considering mid to senior-level candidates, if you're interested in joining the Geckoboard team but earlier in your career, head to www.geckoboard.com/careers and get in touch. We'll be hiring at different levels throughout the year, so we'd love to hear from you and chat about future jobs!
At this time, weâre only considering candidates who are (or will be) based in the United Kingdom or Western Europe (CET timezone).
Right now, we work fully remote from around the globe. Weâre big on work-life balance and flexible work. We have some core hours but it's up to you to decide how you work around those. We consider 25 days of holiday a year to be a minimum, not a maximum, and have a flexible working policy so that if you need to step out for a school run, an appointment, or something else, itâs no problem. We don't do "crunch time" and have a deep commitment to a clear separation of life and work.
Some of our team also have shorter working weeks and weâre more than happy to accommodate this or other arrangements when possible. Learn more about life at Geckoboard at www.geckoboard.com/careers.
The whole process takes about 3 weeks end to end, but weâre flexible!
