ABOUT US

At Zego, we know that traditional motor insurance holds good drivers back. It’s too complicated, too expensive, and it doesn’t take into account how well you actually drive.
That’s why, since 2016, we’ve been on a mission to change all of that. Our mission at Zego is to offer the lowest priced insurance for good drivers.
From van drivers and gig workers to everyday car drivers, our customers are our driving force — they’re at the heart of everything we do.
We’ve sold tens of millions of policies so far, and raised over $200 million in funding. And we’re only just getting started.

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are seeking a skilled Software Engineer who brings strong hands-on experience in backend development, with solid foundations in Python and object-oriented programming. You’ll be someone who enjoys solving complex technical problems, writing clean and maintainable code, and working on systems at scale. This role focuses on general programming competence over framework-specific knowledge and is ideal for engineers who thrive in building reliable systems and contributing to architectural decisions.

WHAT YOU WILL BE DOING

• Develop, test, and maintain Python code for a variety of applications.
• Analyse, troubleshoot, and solve complex programming problems.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to gather requirements and deliver well-structured solutions.
• Write clear, concise, and well-documented code that adheres to industry best practices.
• Contribute to code reviews, offering feedback to ensure code quality across the team.
• Continuously learn and adapt to new technologies and development practices.
