Description

Who are we? 

Planck is the AI Innovation Hub of Applied Systems, where we build the technologies shaping the future of insurance. We're building the next generation of agentic systems, leveraging LLMs, modern AI technologies, and large-scale distributed systems to solve complex real-world problems. Our products help insurance professionals make better decisions and improve the experience of people who rely on insurance every day. Long before generative AI became mainstream, we were building products powered by deep learning and machine learning. AI isn't something we're adding - it's been part of our DNA since day one. 

 Joining Planck means building AI that creates real-world impact. You'll tackle complex challenges, collaborate with exceptional people across disciplines, and see your work used by customers around the world. We move fast, take ownership, and turn ideas into reality with the agility of a startup and the scale of a market leader. We're a team of curious builders who believe great products are built by great people.

You will architect, manage, and continuously improve our cloud-based infrastructure; lead the design and implementation of CI/CD pipelines and developer tooling; and define and drive best practices across infrastructure, security, and development workflows.
