Bjak

Bjak is Southeast Asia's largest online insurance platform, headquartered in Malaysia with operations across Thailand, Japan, and Taiwan. They've built a comparison platform that lets you quote, compare, and renew insurance in minutes — car, motorcycle, travel, life, home, and personal accident — across 15+ insurers. No agents, no branches, just speed.

Their mission is straightforward: make insurance simple and accessible using technology. They're BNM-approved and trusted by 6M+ Malaysians. The platform handles everything from instant quotes to roadtax fulfillment delivered to your door. It's built for people who want friction-free insurance, not sales calls.

For data and ML engineers, Bjak's real challenge is solving insurance comparison at scale across multiple countries and insurers. That means building pricing models, claims data pipelines, fraud detection, and customer risk assessment systems.

They're processing millions of quotes and transactions, which requires serious data infrastructure. If you're in Malaysia or Singapore and want to work on fintech problems with real user volume, this is one of the few platforms moving real premium volume online.
