Senior Frontend Engineer @ Marshmallow

About Marshmallow We started Marshmallow when we found out how unfair insurance prices are for people who move to the UK.


All because the industry hasn’t given this huge cohort of people a second’s thought, and isn’t set up to price them properly.  We saw an opportunity to do things differently, so we made it our mission to back the ones who step outside the norm.


Since we started, we’ve helped 100,000s of people get a fairer deal on their car insurance.


Using technology, we serve people that are often overlooked by financial services companies, solving important problems for people who need it most.  Engineering at Marshmallow Our engineers are at the heart of the solutions.
