Job Description
- Build and fix small-to-medium features on The Platform in JavaScript/Node.js, C#, or an equivalent language, with guidance from senior developers
- Write SQL queries for data extraction, basic reporting, and troubleshooting
- Support basic reporting and data requests, bridging the gap between the Data Analyst and Software Developer II roles
- Use Git/GitHub for version control on assigned work
- Apply AI-assisted development and analysis tools as part of Covenir’s 80/20 model — AI drafts, you refine and verify
- Document your work clearly enough that a senior developer can review it without a walkthrough
- Follow Agile sprint assignments, focusing on the most critical projects as set by the R&D Manager
Requirements
- 0–2 years of software development experience, or equivalent coursework/project experience, with JavaScript/Node.js, C#, or a similar modern language
- Basic working knowledge of SQL for data extraction and reporting
- Working knowledge of Azure cloud services (Container Apps, Blob Storage) as used on The Platform
- Basic familiarity with Git/GitHub or another version control system
- Basic understanding of authentication and access frameworks (Auth0, two-factor authentication, role-based access control)
- Fundamental knowledge of insurance BPO business processes across Print, Call Center, Virtual Mailroom, and Premium & Lockbox
- Fundamental knowledge of The Platform’s architecture, its core modules, and the AI/API sandbox, or a fast willingness to learn them during onboarding
- Comfort using AI-assisted development or analysis tools, or willingness to learn quickly
- Ability to create clear, concise documentation of assigned work, with review from senior team members
- Completes structured onboarding across Platform modules, plus data security and confidentiality training for handling customer data
- Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience
- Performs other duties as assigned by the R&D Manager in support of Covenir’s broader business needs
What an A Player Looks Like
- Coachable by default. A players take feedback from senior developers without getting defensive, and you can see the change in their next pull request.
- Comfortable saying “I don’t know yet”. Entry-level doesn’t mean guessing. A players escalate to senior developers or the Data Analyst instead of quietly shipping something they’re not sure about.
- Curious across both disciplines. This role bridges development and analysis. A players lean into both, instead of quietly avoiding the half they like less.
- Reliable on the basics. Clean commits, clear status updates, work that shows up on time. The fundamentals matter more here than heroics.
- Growing on purpose. A players treat this as a launchpad, actively building toward Developer II or Data Analyst rather than coasting at entry level.
Is This Role for You?
Strong fit
- New to professional development, with foundational
- knowledge of JavaScript/Node.js, C#, or SQL
- Genuinely wants to grow into Software Developer II or
