About the company:

Our products are built and designed by a fully remote team of nomads distributed across three continents.

At SafetyWing, we do not have a strong division between tech and product - we are all part of the product development, and we all participate in strategic decisions for the company. We believe this is the path to create great products.

We’re a strong team of 45 (9 engineers), our headquarter is in San Francisco, while our international team is fully distributed, stretching to ten time zones (from Finland to California). We are on a mission to remove the role of geographical borders as a barrier to equal opportunities and freedom for everyone. And we are doing that by creating simple health, insurance, and retirement products for remote workers worldwide, as a replacement for national welfare systems.

Our current customers are digital nomads (b2c) and remote companies (b2b).
