Job Specifications
CODE IS YOUR favorite LANGUAGE.
The Opportunity
You’re a wizard with code — and proud of it. You love working and playing with computers, and there are simply no words to describe your deep love for technology. You can’t visit a website or use an app without dissecting it to figure out how it works and how it could be better for the end user, often leveraging AI-assisted coding tools to accelerate innovation.
We’re looking for more than just a skilled developer — we’re looking for a technical leader. Someone who can partner closely with the Agile Team Lead to evaluate feasibility, estimate work, and guide technical initiatives. As an advocate of AI-assisted programming and specification-driven workflows, you’ll help set technical direction, mentor peers, and drive the evolution of our solutions while supporting the growth of our development team.
As a Senior Full Stack Developer for our Software Development team, you’ll help provide AMA with new business solutions and improve existing technology solutions. Your primary responsibility is to translate software requirements into robust, maintainable applications—using spec-driven development and AI coding tools to enhance productivity and quality. You’ll code, maintain, enhance, develop, and test applications for use within AMA, all while enjoying a creative work environment and excellent benefits.
The Team You’ve Been Looking For
AMA is more than a workplace; it’s a family. Together, we help protect the things that matter most to our more than one-million members—everything from roadside safety to retail savings, food security to childhood well-being. And with operations that span automotive, registries, travel, insurance and more, the opportunities to grow with us are almost limitless!

Who You Are
You’re a trusted technical advisor, able to break down complex problems and guide the team toward effective solutions.
You thrive in a leadership role, balancing hands-on development with strategic thinking and a commitment to AI-assisted and spec-driven development approaches.
You’re confident making technical decisions and communicating trade-offs to both technical and non-technical audiences.
You tackle every project with anticipation and excitement — no matter how big or how small.
You ‘get’ what it means to be part of the team and enjoy working in a collaborative environment.
The words “that will do” aren’t in your vocabulary. You always strive to find the best, most innovative solution.
You don’t sit around waiting to be told what to do. You know what needs to be done and you do it.
You love rolling up your sleeves and digging into the details.
You handle even the tightest deadlines with a cool head and a clear vision.
You’re a natural mentor. Bringing out the best in others brings out the best in you.
