We have been helping insurance and related companies to maximise their potential for almost two decades. Our success lies in establishing innovative insurance entities and partnering with great people who have excellent track records. We give them the means to grow sustainably into the future by providing expert assistance and advice on legal matters, training needs, marketing requirements and new product development. We believe that it is through partnership that companies will reach their full potential and achieve successful growth. That is why Badger Holdings embraces and encourages opportunities to establish firm, committed and longstanding business relationships. Our chairman often tells the story that inspired his vision for the group – about his friend who was about to crash in a glider plane. He prayed to be saved and felt a gentle wind lift the wings of the plane and gently help to land him. We see relationships and gentle landings in times of need as our offering.
About you
You’re an experienced full-stack engineer who has already shipped AI-powered products into production.
You understand that building for AI is different. You’ve worked with non-deterministic systems, handled variable latency, and designed experiences that gracefully manage failure, partial responses, and uncertainty.
You’re confident across the stack:
Modern frontend frameworks (React or similar)
Backend/API development (Node.js, Python, or similar)
REST/GraphQL APIs at scale
Secure, compliant data handling in regulated environments
You’ve built systems where reliability, security, and control matter, including authentication, validation, and enforcing boundaries at the API layer (not relying on the model to behave).
You’re also comfortable owning the full lifecycle: from design and development to CI/CD and deployment.
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience demonstrating shipped production AI work
5+ years’ experience in full-stack software engineering roles
Demonstrated experience shipping user-facing AI or LLM-powered products into production environments
Bonus points
We’d love to hear from you if you’ve also worked with:
Conversational interfaces, Azure, or LLM observability tools
Complex system integrations like CRM platforms
Training or certifications in secure software development or data protection (e.g. GDPR/POPIA awareness)
