Software Engineer II

Insurance touches people during some of the most challenging moments in their lives. Hi Marley is on a mission to transform how the P&C industry communicates, making those moments faster, easier, and more empathetic for carriers and the customers they serve. We build AI-powered software that keeps everyone in the claims conversation informed and connected. If you believe insurance can combine operational excellence and automation with a human touch, we'd love to meet you.


We're looking for a Software Engineer II to join our growing engineering team. This person will be an active contributor to a high-performing engineering team, helping us build great features and ship high-quality software that solves real customer problems. You'll bring curiosity, initiative, and a collaborative mindset - and you'll grow your impact over time through strong execution, ownership, and self-direction, including identifying opportunities for improvement and driving them forward.

We know that great engineers come from many different backgrounds - if you're excited about this role, we'd love to hear from you. We thrive on teamwork and shared enthusiasm, which is why this role involves joining us in the office for two days each week.


What You'll Do:

• Collaborate with your team to build and improve product features across our platform
• Write clean, testable, maintainable code that's ready for production
• Participate in code reviews, technical discussions, and team planning sessions
• Learn our architecture and platform, starting with a few areas of focus and growing broader over time
• Contribute to a motivated, positive team environment by bringing curiosity, energy, and support for your teammates
• Receive and offer feedback as part of a culture of continuous improvement and learning

What We're Looking For:

• Typically, 2-4 years of experience in professional software development, with a focus on delivering quality code to production.
• Proven ability to work independently - you take initiative, follow through on loosely scoped goals, and drive ideas forward.
• Some experience with backend (Node/TypeScript), frontend (React), and/or cloud architectures (AWS) - we don't expect you to know all three.
• A growth mindset and a team-first approach - you're eager to learn, support others, and seek feedback.
• Curiosity and comfort working in an AI-enhanced environment - you're open to AI tools and excited about how they can improve your work.
• Motivation to build meaningful, customer-facing software and see it through to impact.
• At this time, we are only able to consider candidates who are currently authorized to work in the U.S. and will not require sponsorship now or in the future.

Compensation, Benefits & Perks:
At Hi Marley, we are committed to fair and transparent pay practices. We recognize that experience and impact can vary across engineering levels. The annual base salary for this position is expected to fall within the following ranges, depending on level, experience, and demonstrated technical depth:

• Level II (typically 2+ years of experience): [$79,800-$148,200 annual base salary]

It is most common for new hires to start near the midpoint of the range, allowing room for growth as employees develop in their role.


In addition to base pay, we offer a comprehensive total rewards package that supports both your wellbeing and professional growth, including:

• Equity grants for all employees
• A 4% matching 401(k) program
• Medical, dental, vision, disability, and life insurance coverage for employees working 30+ hours per week
• Monthly wellness stipend
• Paid parental leave
• A flexible vacation policy - we all work hard and take time when we need it

Who We Are:
At Hi Marley, our culture is built on three core values that every employee embodies:

• Max Courage - We encourage our team, our customers, and their customers to dream big, try new ideas, and maximize impact by measuring risk.
• Be Humble - We lead with appreciation and promote a culture of humility, compassion, and openness to learn from anyone, anywhere.
• Ubuntu ("I am because we are") - We believe true success is much bigger than any single individual or company. By aligning our individual aims behind a shared purpose, we can achieve our fullest potential - together.
