About Zego

Insurance hasn't changed much in over a century. The way we live, work and travel has.

Good drivers are the entire point of Zego. Seven in 10 drivers on the road are consistently good, but until telematics came along there was no way to prove it, so nearly everyone paid a price based on averages. Zego is the company built to change that.

At Zego, we're leading the AI evolution in insurance.

We move fast, without the layers that usually slow things down. AI takes the routine work off every team, from Finance to Product to Marketing, so people ship real code and launch custom dashboards in minutes. Engineering commits are entirely AI-assisted, which shifts the focus from team size to the quality of your thinking and our data warehouse connects directly to an AI assistant for instant answers. Backed by a modern tech stack (Claude Code, Snowflake, Figma and Zapier) and a commitment to adopting new tools in days rather than quarters, you get complete ownership to do the most impactful work of your career.

What you will be doing

  • Shape the architecture of the iOS platform so it stays secure, fast and maintainable as the product grows
  • Deliver a consumer app experience that leads the market, so customers manage their policies and understand their driving without friction
  • Build and evolve the native mobile SDK that collects the data behind every driver score
  • Set technical direction and engineering standards that teams beyond your own follow
  • Raise the quality bar through code reviews, design docs and tech talks, so knowledge spreads rather than sitting with one person
  • Partner with Product Managers to launch features that customers actually use

What you will need to be successful

  • Deep iOS experience - Around 6+ years building iOS applications, and you can point to what you shipped and why it mattered
  • Architectural judgement - A solid understanding of software architecture, design patterns and the trade-offs behind them
  • SDK craft - You have built SDKs that are scalable, performant and genuinely usable by third-party developers
  • Secure, high-performance engineering - You build iOS applications that hold up under real scale, security and performance pressure
  • Clear communication - You collaborate well with Product and other engineers and explain technical decisions in a way people can act on
  • You work AI-first - You will use AI daily here, and we mean daily. You do not need to arrive an expert, but you do need to arrive curious, experiment fast, and take ownership of getting good quickly. People who wait to be trained will find this uncomfortable

What’s it like to work at Zego?

At Zego, we operate like a high-performing sports team. We come together as one, driven by ambition, backed by real support and united by a shared mission to win.

Working here means having the backing, the coaching and an inclusive community of Zegons across the UK and Europe, who celebrate your wins and raise your game. It also means holding ourselves to high standards: moving with urgency, taking complete ownership and embracing honest feedback that helps us continuously learn and evolve!

This is your opportunity for a career-defining experience and one you will own.

The Zego ways of working

Teams work better with time to collaborate and space to get things done. We call it Zego Hybrid: some of us are in our central London office weekly, others monthly or quarterly. It is about finding the balance between face time and focus that produces great work and a healthy life around it.

We also make a point of getting everyone in the same room. Teams come together every quarter and once a year the whole company does, properly. It is a serious investment and consistently one of the best parts of the year - Here is what the last one looked like.

Benefits

  • Market-competitive salary, benchmarked against your function and reviewed every year
  • Annual performance bonus, linked to company performance and your contribution
  • Share options, a real stake in the company and a share in the future you build
  • Private medical insurance, for you and your family
  • Pension, generous holiday and £1,000 a year to spend on getting to the office or learning something new
  • Cutting-edge systems and tools, so you always have what you need to drive your impact

If you're ready to help build the real-time, data-driven infrastructure for an intelligent world, we want to hear from you.

Using smart technology and sophisticated data sources, Zego gives businesses the power to monitor and improve their driving performance over time, enabling them to save money by retaining a great price for their cover. It also helps businesses save time, making the administrative side of things easy and the claims process effortless.

Since its inception in 2016, Zego has grown to support businesses in the UK and across Europe and has forged partnerships with businesses such as BP, Amazon and Uber. Zego has also raised $280 million in funding and was the first UK insurtech to be valued at over $1 billion.
