Core Platform Engineer

At Acturis, innovation isn’t just part of our culture — it’s in our DNA.
Our journey began in 2000 in the garage of our co‑founder, Theo Duchen, who—together with fellow former McKinsey partner David McDonald—set out to reinvent insurance technology. From those start‑up beginnings, Acturis has grown into a global SaaS leader transforming the insurance industry.

Today, over 100,000 users in 40+ countries rely on our platform to run and grow their businesses. By partnering closely with brokers, insurers, and MGAs, we continue to shape modern insurance across both personal and commercial lines.

Recognised as a Great Place to Work® 2026 Acturis combines the agility and innovation of a start‑up with the scale and stability of an industry leader. You’ll join a team where expertise is valued, ideas move fast, and talented people make a real impact from day one. And as an EcoVadis Committed‑rated organisation, we focus on creating long‑term value by operating in a sustainable and responsible way.

Day to day you will:

• Deliver and enhance core platform services and reusable platform components that support our wider application estate and engineering teams.

• Build and evolve self-service capabilities and standardised platform patterns (“golden paths”), driving automation and improving the developer experience.

• Support the reliability and operation of critical platform services through monitoring, incident response, continuous improvement, and engineering best practices.

We offer structured development, clear progression, and genuine ownership — whether that means leading projects, shaping strategy, or mentoring others. You’ll work in a collaborative environment where strong performers progress quickly.

You can expect:

• A transparent progression structure, regular feedback, and annual performance reviews.

• Opportunities to contribute to platform strategy, improve engineering standards, and influence how our technology platforms evolve.

• Comprehensive onboarding, ongoing professional development, and exposure to modern automation, CI/CD, Infrastructure-as-Code, and platform engineering practices.

You’ll thrive here if you:

• Have experience in platform, infrastructure, or systems engineering, ideally within a Microsoft Windows-based environment.

• Possess strong automation and scripting skills using tools such as PowerShell, Ansible, or Bash, with exposure to CI/CD and Infrastructure-as-Code approaches.

• Are a proactive problem solver who can work independently, improve operational processes, and adapt quickly within a fast-moving engineering environment.
