Democrance | https://democrance.com | Python/Django/Pyramid/Pydantic AI hacker | REMOTE (working in Dubai-UK timezones)

We’re a mature microinsurance SaaS startup, building software to help bridge the gap between insurance companies and those who are not insured or under-insured. High traffic, mobile first + SMS platform that requires some interesting compliance and security requirements with deployments in countries with variable quality infrastructure. Now with added AI sprinkled on top to automate underwriting and data collection tasks - enabling lower cost insurance and reaching wider/underserved markets.

Stack is Vue.js with mostly django in the back end although pyramid/sqlalchemy is being used in our analytics dashboard. Plenty of third party api integration. Gitlab, unit tests, and continuous integration are standard.

Our devops stack includes Ansible and Terraform, and we operate across the major cloud providers, as well as a few smaller players! Mature and international dev team with a few PhD’s included.

Our QA Automation stack is built in Selenium in Java, and we're exploring Playwright as a complementary technology. Understanding of GIT, CI/CD pipelines debugging issues related to them will be key. Experience with TestNG, Maven or Gradle welcome!

We’re looking for both mature candidates and juniors - industry experience is of course welcome.

Please apply to [email protected] by clearly stating the role you want to apply for, your name, current location and visa status, your notice period, salary (Please do not apply again if you already have).

I call bs... the utterly terrible customer experience is what lost them their customers. And constant changing of plans which became less and less effective... all of their 10$ a month customers don't suddenly have the budget to spend 1000$ a month on ozempic.

Presumably this car is a small and light one - not a large truck that takes a lot of space and pollutes a lot...

Worth noting Toyota was building hybrid cars long before anyone else - drastically cutting emissions before it was cool....

A little unfair to compare a country 10x the size - I would imagine its a lot easier to run good public transport over a smaller area. That said, Germany does seem to have underinvested in infrastructure a lot in the Merkel era... hopefully something that is being remedied now. The transport network is still amazing overall by global standards, even if it is frustrating for daily commuters.
