Senior IT Support Specialist – First Connect
First Connect is a software platform designed for insurance agents to easily connect with today’s top Insurtech providers and other tech-forward insurance carriers. The platform’s standout feature is a robust comparative rater that lets insurance agents input data just once to generate multiple insurance quotes for their clients. FC aims to continually expand its network of insurance providers by integrating more companies via APIs, making it easy to access a wide range of insurance products. First Connect is an independent startup that recently spun out of Hippo Insurance and is now building its own unique future. At SwingDev—a hippo company, we’re proud to be their long-term strategic partner. Want to learn more? Let’s discuss it on our first call! What’s our culture like? „We’re all about people” – yes, it may sound a bit cliche. But whether we’re writing code or just hanging out, we know that people are at the heart of everything we do. We like to have a good time and keep things light, even when we’re tackling big projects. We could brag about what’s making us special, but we’ve boiled it down to two key ingredients: mature, companionable people who, rather than compete, prefer to inspire and have each other’s backs; a culture of trust, empathy, and positivity that keeps us together, lets us interact as teammates and friends, and truly enjoy the ride. About the role: We’re looking for an experienced and self-sufficient Senior IT Support Specialist to join our insurtech startup. In this role, you’ll take ownership of internal IT operations, including improving and establishing processes and managing vendor relationships to ensure timely and effective support for technical issues for our international teams.

You’ll support employee onboarding and offboarding from an IT perspective.
