A bit about Newfront:

From the Mayflower to the moon landing, every venture relies on insurance. The $1 trillion insurance industry is fundamental to our economy and society, but remains stuck in the stone age. Incumbents rely on antiquated pen-and-paper process and there's a huge opportunity to transform it through technology. At Newfront, we're building software to supercharge insurance brokers and help them deliver a delightful experience to clients.

While we’re a technology-driven company, we believe that people and trusted relationships matter. Newfront believes in empowering people rather than "disrupting" them. Our singular mission is to create the future of work for this massive industry.

We believe breakout growth creates breakout opportunities and diversity drives innovation.

As Newfront’s first Data Analytics Engineer, you will spearhead building Newfront’s analytics and business-intelligence infrastructure. You will have widespread purview, with a responsibility for understanding, mining, aggregating, and exposing data across the entire business to support timely and efficient decision-making and data exploration.
