Companies you'll love to work for

What you will do

We play a key part in bringing our AI to life. We collaborate closely in cross-functional teams, to design, build and deliver innovative E2E features that use the AI models to solve real world problems in our products.

We work in small product feature teams consisting of Software Engineers, Machine Learning Researchers, Designers and Product Managers. We build our teams to have all the expertise and context needed within the team to solve problems and build world-class products. We love collaboration and moving quickly. We enjoy using modern open-source technology and engineering best practices.

Engineering managers play an active role in shaping the future direction of the product and technology of tractable. You will drive the technology collaboration across teams increasing delivery velocity collaborating on the delivery of our core micro services.

We love to experiment and innovate and we create the opportunities to try new ideas. Engineering managers drive engineering excellence in Traceable using data to drive focus on the key areas for improvement in our products and development lifecycle.

If you join us, you will be working out how we can best help millions of people around the world recover faster from an accident. We’re proud to see our product have a massive impact on people daily… and we know this is just the beginning.

The AI Review Team

The AI Review product automates & streamlines the claim settlement process between insurers and bodyshop once an initial estimate has been created with the power of AI. Traditionally, the review & settlement process of a claim (which comes after a repair shop sends the estimate to the insurance company) is labour-intensive and manual. Our visual AI is able to understand the nature and amount of damage in an accident by analysing the vehicle’s photos, making it possible to automate & optimise this process.

AI Review is an ML-first product team (composed of Product, Engineering & Research) in charge of optimising all of the related review use cases to make the process efficient. This involves building highly accurate AI-driven triage and prioritisation mechanisms, optimising the time taken by human adjusters to review a claim with the help of AI. Levering AI in order to improve the negotiation process between bodyshop & insurers.

It’s a varied role and someone who enjoys taking autonomy and ownership will thrive in this position. It involves working together with the Product team to understand our users, speaking directly to our users to get their feedback and understand their workflows, communicating with internal teams about how we can build out our product, and championing best practices within the team. It will suit someone who enjoys introducing new processes, best practices, and driving improvements!
