Our flagship platform, RAS (Risk Automation Solutions), delivers augmented and automated underwriting capabilities as a customer-facing SaaS application, helping insurers make faster, smarter, and more consistent risk decisions at scale.

We are looking for a mid-level back--end developer with 2–5 years of professional experience to join our RAS engineering team. The role is primarily backend-focused, with Ruby on Rails preferred.

The position is based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, with a hybrid work arrangement and a competitive salary commensurate with experience.

Key duties and responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain backend services in Ruby on Rails or an equivalent MVC framework, leveraging AI-assisted coding tools to accelerate delivery.

• Manage the development, orchestration, and maintenance of agentic AI agents within the RAS platform.

• Collaborate with frontend engineers to deliver end-to-end product features.

• Implement and maintain automated testing, using AI-driven tooling where appropriate while demonstrating the ability to author and debug tests manually.

• Conduct code reviews using AI-assisted tooling while applying sound manual judgment on quality, security, and maintainability.

• Contribute to database design and optimization.

• Automate and improve CI/CD pipelines and deployment processes, incorporating AI agents where viable.

• Participate in incident response and production troubleshooting, with the ability to diagnose issues independently without AI assistance.

• Maintain technical documentation, using AI to draft and structure content while ensuring accuracy through manual review.

• Strong proficiency in at least one MVC backend framework; Ruby on Rails is preferred.

• Solid understanding of RESTful API design and relational databases.

• Proven manual competency: able to design, code, test, and debug without AI assistance.

• Experience with Git and collaborative development workflows.

• Familiarity with AI concepts or agent-based systems.

• Hands-on experience with Ruby on Rails is preferred.

• Frontend experience with JavaScript, TypeScript, React, or similar frameworks is a plus.

• Experience building or integrating LLM-based agents or agentic workflows is a plus.
