Tech Development Program - Summer 2021
Haven Life is an insurtech innovator, backed and wholly owned by MassMutual that creatively uses technology to advance the life insurance industry and better serve the modern customer.
We combine the culture of a startup with the stability and backing of a Fortune 500 company to create an environment that's truly unique.
Our diverse team is comprised of smart, collaborative people who think big, execute quickly and don't take themselves too seriously. We're located in New York's Flatiron District and in case you're wondering, yes, we provide free snacks. Cold brew too.
If you're creative, professional and kind, we'd love to hear from you.
ABOUT OUR TECH DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM:
You will be joining a small, experienced technology team responsible for our advanced online financial services application. During this time, you will work closely with experienced software engineers, receiving mentorship and guidance, and contributing to both our complex platform as well as to our collaborative, inclusive culture. You’ll get to work with cutting edge technologies such as Typescript, Node.js, Angular 6, Postgres and AWS.
Our Tech Development Program is a 12 month rotational program that will give you hands on exposure to all aspects of our engineering team as a Full Stack Developer. You will be part of a small cohort of new hires. The first 6 months of the program you will be learning about the business side of the company and the life insurance industry. You will work with our product facing teams to get hands on experience. The last 6 months of the program you will learn more about the backhouse aspects of our product. You will work with teams that handle our underwriting, policy administration and risk solutions. The goal of this rotational program is to give you a hands on learning experience while receiving mentorship from our more senior developers. The program will begin in July 2021.
