Verisk is a global leader in data, analytics, and technology. We help organizations make better decisions by turning complex data into actionable insights. Our work supports critical industries including insurance, financial services, energy, and healthcare, combining deep expertise with modern technology at scale.

Whitespace Software, part of Verisk, builds technology that powers digital risk placement in the global specialty insurance market. Our platform enables brokers and insurers to collaborate more efficiently, process business faster, and operate with greater transparency.

This role is for an experienced engineer who wants to take a leading technical role while remaining hands‑on. You will work on a complex, high‑performing platform, helping design and deliver new functionality while ensuring systems are scalable, reliable, and secure. At the same time, you will guide other engineers, contributing to technical direction and raising the overall quality of delivery. This is a role with real ownership. You will influence architecture, shape how solutions are built, and play an important part in mentoring junior engineers. Your work will directly impact how the platform evolves and performs at scale. If you enjoy solving complex problems, working with modern technologies, and supporting others to grow, this role offers both challenge and long‑term impact.

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Platform impact – Work on a widely used product that is transforming how specialty insurance operates globally
  • Technical ownership – Influence architecture, design decisions, and engineering standards
  • Modern engineering environment – Work with Angular, TypeScript, microservices, and cloud‑based systems
  • Leadership opportunity – Combine hands‑on development with mentoring and technical guidance
  • Meaningful complexity – Solve real‑world challenges involving performance, scalability, and reliability
  • Long‑term growth – Join a global organization investing in its platforms and people
