About Vouch:

Insurance... sounds slow, old-fashioned, and unexciting. Exactly. Insurance is broken, and it's failing fast-moving, innovative startups.

Vouch is a new, technology-first insurance company backed with $160M in funding from world-class investors. Like Stripe for payments or Brex for credit cards, Vouch is creating the go-to business insurance for high-growth companies.

We're doing this by making insurance fast, responsive, and focused on our customers -high growth and innovative companies. Instead of printed PDF applications and week-long waits, Vouch is building new technology to solve real problems, writing policies that actually cover relevant startup scenarios, and designing simple experiences in an otherwise frustrating industry.

What does a work environment look like at Vouch?

Vouch has a 3-HQ model: Office-Based, Office-Linked, and Remote-First. This role is Remote-First, which means that team members can work from anywhere in the U.S. so long as they can work during Vouch core collaboration hours (9 am-3 pm PT Mon-Fri).

Role Responsibilities: 

Excited to build technical systems that power the go-to-market strategy at a hyper-growth startup? As an Enablement Engineer at Vouch, you will be part of a team doing just that. The Enablement team builds the tools that will allow Vouch to scale.

This role will allow you to have a hand in nearly every aspect of the business. You'll work directly with Vouch's engineering, insurance, and go-to-market teams, giving you company-wide visibility for your work. You'll have influence over what makes it into Vouch's tech stack — from marketing tools like Autopilot and Salesloft to customer support systems like Zendesk - with opportunities to decide what tools you take off the shelf and what software you build in-house. You'll be involved in architectural decisions that will define how data flows through all our systems.

Do you love working cross-functionally and building processes that bridge many services? As a key player on Enablement, you will join a team of agile systems designers who can connect the dots across service boundaries. You’ll work directly with Vouch's engineering, insurance, and go-to-market teams to support our business operations. You'll automate parts of our sales and success functions, build tools to administer our policies, and help our teams operate faster and more predictably. A successful engineer in this role will have measurable top-line and bottom-line impact. You'll have the chance to learn more about each function's role in building a successful startup.

Job Duties:

• Build world class business system solutions in an Agile/Scrum delivery environment.
