Build core technology for an AI insurance platform, collaborate with teams, architect infrastructure, and support hiring for engineering culture.
Anzen was founded by former insurance and tech executives who’ve collectively scaled three unicorns. Backed by leading investors like Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) and Madrona, we’re on a mission to transform how companies choose and understand commercial insurance using AI.
Commercial insurance today runs on emails, PDFs, and lengthy underwriting cycles — often taking weeks to secure coverage. Anzen is building the world’s first AI insurance platform for brokers, radically improving how they manage submissions, select markets, and generate quotes for their clients.
We've built a team from top universities, with experience scaling products at Google, Uber, Lyft, Oracle, and startups founded by the best investors in the world, and are continuing to scale our team in Mexico, Canada, and the United States.
Responsibilities
- You will build our core technology to ensure it can scale to hundreds of millions of dollars in insurance policies across hundreds of organizations and use ML to help insurance underwriters be 5-10x more effective.
- Work closely with Product, Design, and other Engineers to take our vision from concept through rollout; building out an experience that customers love, and splitting that work into reasonable milestones.
- Architect and implement core pieces of our insurance infrastructure, both for 0 → 1 components as well as 1 → 100 components.
- Help hire amazing people and build the Engineering culture at Anzen.
Qualifications
- Strong academic background (Computer Engineering degree or equivalent)
- At least two years of experience building complex systems as part of a team.
- Familiarity with some components of the Anzen stack (TypeScript, React, Postgres, Redis, AWS)
- You are excited to take on completely new projects and also to provide fresh perspectives on existing implementations.
- Ideal candidates will have experience building software with strict quality and uptime requirements (e.g. financial systems)
- Ideal candidates will have experience or an interest in training or fine-tuning Machine Learning models.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
