Senior Frontend Developer

Position: Senior Frontend Developer

We are looking for someone who is passionate about tech start-ups and who has a passion for learning. We are a small, tight-knit team all working together to digitally transform the way businesses do insurance, by enabling embedded insurance propositions on behalf of our clients. We are working towards being the biggest insurance-as-a-service platform.

About Click2Sure
Click2Sure has developed a full stack digital insurance platform. We’re changing the way that insurance is distributed and administered both in South Africa and internationally. Our highly innovative technology platform integrates into point of sale systems of retailers or into a range of other businesses so that customers can be offered insurance at a point of sale. Our model promotes access to financial services for many customers as well as introduces new revenue streams for our partners. All the while, users are offered a superior and highly convenient customer experience. In each case we can either develop a unique set of insurance products to be sold or we plug into a third party's product if more appropriate. The platform also has a range of administrative functions and automated claims and other processes.
Our platform is a predominantly API driven platform, that provides our clients (businesses) with the infrastructure to distribute and manage insurance products (funeral policies, extended warranties, speciality gap cover, etc.) to their customers. We have several distribution channels, including a web frontend and Whatsapp integrations, a core quoting pricing and policy management engine, a claims process engine and reporting engine.
We have a growing business and we need to expand into a strong technical team to deliver the product that will support Click2Sure’s growth aspirations.
