  • You develop and operate our core property and casualty insurance system for the Product, Policy Administration, and Claims areas, based on the Faktor-Zehn Suite. You shape the continuous evolution of the system landscape and implement modern solutions using Java, Spring Boot, and Faktor-IPS.
  • Together with the team, you shape the technical architecture, make strategic technology decisions, and continuously improve development standards, best practices, and quality assurance measures.
  • Together with the relevant business and IT teams, you translate business requirements into clear technical concepts and practical solutions.

Qualifications

You can explain technical concepts in an accessible way, make responsible decisions, and bring together the differing interests of business departments, IT, and project partners.
