Do you value integrity in what you do?
We strive for integrity in all that we do: truthful relationships with customers, prospective customers, partners, investors, and each other. As we grow, our commitment to integrity has only increased.
Guidewire is expanding in Europe and has multiple openings for software consultants with 5 years or more of experience. We hire people who are considered “ERP Implementation Consultants,†“Configuration Consultant†and “IT Consultant†at other companies. Titles are not as important to us as the quality of the people we work with and the opportunity to be productive. We strive to constantly improve our development process, apply the latest Agile and Lean techniques, and collaborate to create and maintain the greatest enterprise software suite in the Property and Casualty Insurance industry.
Are you dedicated to rationality in your dealings with your colleagues, clients and other departments?
We prize clear, rational and collaborative communications on our projects that is plainly based on logic, total commitment to quality, and to making decisions based on factual evidence.
Are you into working on a team that is comprised of professional equals with a minimum of hierarchy?
We understand that certain cultures and companies are interested in titles and a rigid chain of command which is one way of organizing a company's culture.
At Guidewire, we value people at every stage of their career and try to minimize those barriers for collaboration. It is reflected in how we communicate with each other company-wide and on projects. Every engineer and consultant brings something to the table whether in the earlier years of their career or after a long and successful progression.
Guidewire is a software company.
Our customers are insurance companies, and insurance software is surprisingly complex, difficult to get right, and actually a lot of fun to work on. Demand for our software is on the rise, and we are growing to meet the needs of the market.
Our implementation process is sustainable (no death marches), work/life balance friendly, and we pride ourselves on a calm, systematic, and rational approach to our business. See and hear from our employees here -
So what will I be doing?
You will be helping make our customer's lives easier and their businesses more efficient as they adopt our solution. Our job in Professional Services begins when the software leaves the engineering floor; each customer has their own configuration and integration needs. Our Source Code is never modified but the way the software can look and flow will depend on the country and the company.
We break the mold from traditional consultants.
We send a small team of Subject Matter Experts who work in tandem with the insurance company's internal team to address their needs, and become a trusted advisor and mentor. Our services team is involved in every sale, and you can rest assured that the requirements are being established by professionals who have been through implementations themselves. Our software is incredibly complex and well-tested â€"over 1,000 years' of man hours has been invested in our products so far.
How do I become a Subject Matter Expert?
We invest in you immediately by sending you through product certification training, and then a shadow assignment with a customer. You'll receive 2 months of training before you're ever expected to be billable.
Our Professional Services team works on-site at our customers.
To accomplish that we employ a flexible travel schedule of traveling to the customer on Mondays to return on Thursday which has been called the 3-4-5 in the industry: 3 nights away, 4 days onsite, with the fifth day working from home.
