Fancy helping us shape the future of motor insurance?
Prima could be the place for you.
Since 2015, we’ve been using our love of data and tech to rethink motor insurance and bring drivers a great experience at a great price. Our story began in Italy, where we’ve quickly become the number one online motor insurance provider. In fact, we’re trusted by over 5 million drivers. And now we’re expanding to help millions more drivers in the UK and Spain.
To help fuel that growth, we need a Rust Engineer to join our dynamic teams.
This team is the beating heart of Prima.
You’ll be joining over +350 engineers across software development, infrastructure, operations, and security. Fueled by curiosity, experimentation, and collaboration, you’ll help deliver scalable, impactful solutions that shape the future of insurance.
What You’ll Do
- Architect, design, develop, and maintain scalable and consistent services, writing reusable, modular, and maintainable code aligned with industry best practices.
- Collaborate closely with stakeholders, product managers, and engineering managers to translate business requirements into effective software solutions, define timelines, and estimate effort.
- Perform code reviews, enforce coding standards, troubleshoot and debug complex issues, and ensure high code quality and performance.
- Stay up to date with new technologies and tools, drive their adoption when appropriate, and contribute to a culture of continuous learning and team growth.
