Role overview
At Allstate, great things happen when our people work together to protect families and their belongings from life’s uncertainties. And for more than 90 years, our innovative drive has kept us a step ahead of our customers’ evolving needs. From advocating for seat belts, air bags and graduated driving laws, to being an industry leader in pricing sophistication, telematics, and, more recently, device and identity protection.
Your role in the team
The Risk Engineering team is responsible for designing, building, and operating software products that support risk management and risk control capabilities across the ACC organization. The team applies modern software engineering practices to create scalable, reliable, and user-friendly applications that help teams understand risk, manage control activity, automate workflows, and turn risk and control data into actionable outcomes.
Product Risk Engineers are full-stack software engineers who own the full software development lifecycle — from design and implementation through deployment and production support. They build and maintain production applications using modern front-end, back-end, data, and event-driven technologies, and are accountable for the reliability, usability, adoption, and effectiveness of the products they deliver. Success in this role is measured through outcomes such as product adoption, system reliability, improved control execution, reduced manual effort, and meaningful support for risk reduction.
Key Responsibilities
-
Design, build, and operate software products that support risk management, risk controls, control workflows, and TORC operational needs.
-
Own risk engineering product capabilities end-to-end, including architecture, implementation, deployment, integration, and ongoing operational support in production.
-
Write, test, and maintain high-quality production code across React front ends, Spring Boot services, SQL data layers, and supporting microservices.
-
Apply engineering best practices such as test-driven development, paired programming, code review, automated testing, and continuous integration and deployment.
-
Contribute to high-level and low-level system and component designs
