BJAK, a company that uses AI, automation, and backend systems to power insurance operations, is hiring a Technical Lead based in the United Kingdom. The role is fully remote and focuses on designing and building systems that support BJAK's expansion into the UK market.
What BJAK's Platform Does
According to the job posting on Built In, BJAK's platform handles customer journeys including quotes, insurer integrations, document processing, policy issuance, endorsements, and claims at scale. The company is now looking to bring these capabilities to the UK market.
What the Technical Lead Will Do
The Technical Lead will be responsible for leading engineering initiatives that support BJAK's UK market expansion. As detailed in the job description on Remote Rocketship, this includes translating UK business, regulatory, and operational requirements into scalable system designs.
The role involves designing backend systems and platform capabilities for new insurance products and workflows. The Technical Lead will also build and extend core services to support multi-region, multi-market platform operations, and define system architecture for integrations with insurers, partners, and external APIs in the UK ecosystem.
Working with a Global Team
The position is fully remote, but the Technical Lead will collaborate closely with BJAK's Malaysia-based engineering, product, and operations teams. The goal is to deliver production-grade systems for international expansion, including new product workflows, integrations, regulatory requirements, and platform capabilities needed to operate in a new region.
Our Take: A Strategic Hire for UK Market Entry
This hiring move signals that BJAK is serious about entering the UK insurance market. The company is not just looking for a developer — it needs someone who can understand UK regulatory requirements and translate them into technical systems. That is a smart approach. Many tech companies fail in new markets because they underestimate local regulations and partner integration complexity. By hiring a UK-based Technical Lead, BJAK is addressing that challenge head-on. For experienced engineers in the UK insurance tech space, this role offers a chance to shape how a global platform adapts to a new market from the ground up.
