Develop and configure Guidewire PolicyCenter using Java/Gosu; analyze business requirements and translate them into technical/configuration solutions within a SAFe/Scrum, French-speaking P&C environment. Work includes development, requirement analysis, and contributing to team ramp-up and delivery.
The
dedicated team consists of 4 to 10 people, indicating an active ramp-up phase:
the two developers will be joining a growing team in a SAFe environment with PI
Planning cadence.
The target
profile is a developer who can both code and analyze: the client is looking for
individuals capable of understanding business requirements, translating them
into configuration or Guidewire development, without relying on an intermediate
analyst.
The tech
stack is Java and/or GoSu on PolicyCenter. Prior experience in property and
casualty insurance (P&C) is implicitly valued given the policy management
context. The environment is entirely French speaking, which effectively
eliminates profiles that are not functional in French.
