About Juniper Labs

Juniper Labs is an early-stage startup in the Insurtech space. Our mission is to make business insurance easy and affordable to purchase, provide, and manage. We are doing this by building automation solutions for companies in the commercial insurance space through state-of-the-art machine learning, cloud-scale data pipelining, modern web development, and human-centric design.

We are also creating the world’s first open-source database purpose-built to create significant value for commercial insurance companies. Our value proposition is the centralization and transparency we bring to this data as well as the solutions we are building on top of this open data platform. Our vision is to create a community around data that enables curation, creation, and innovation for its members.

We are building a culture centered on our values and invite you to join us.

• Manage and review code contributed by the rest of the community and work with them to get it ready for production.


• Create and maintain documentation around features and configuration to save our users time.


• Take initiative in improving the software in small or large ways to address pain points from the community.


• Keep code easy to maintain and keep it easy for others to contribute code to our OpenJuniper project.


Requirements

• You are a humble learner who takes ownership of both your own results as well as the growth of those around you.

• You have demonstrated comfort and success in the context of an early-stage startup.

• You can comfortably pinch-hit on data pipelining/ETL tasks.


• You are passionate about open source.


• Strong written communication skills.
