In addition to this, the role will involve collaborating and knowledge sharing with other technical specialists in the team, as well as representing the business at workshops, talks, and events.

Claims process improvements

In this portion of time, the tech specialist team will be given the flexibility to research & develop new internal tooling and processes that increase the efficiency of claims handling.

This will involve rapidly researching, analysing, and prototyping solutions in an iterative way. For successful prototypes (once they are validating them in a production context i.e. using real customer claims/data), they will be passed to the product team for further development and integration into the core product.
