Legacy modernization and agency operations platform for insurance
SOMPO Systems maintains a mixed enterprise stack (Java, Spring, mainframe z/OS + DB2 alongside cloud AWS/GCP/Azure and modern web React/TypeScript) while facing persistent modernization and productivity challenges. The engineering-heavy org (47 of 55 headcount) with senior-skewed seniority (25 seniors vs. 1 junior) suggests deep domain expertise applied to incremental system upgrades rather than greenfield velocity — consistent with their project mix of legacy migration, agency system maintenance, and on-premises-to-SaaS transitions.
SOMPO Systems is a Tokyo-based software development firm founded in 1984, operating within Japan's insurance sector. The company builds and maintains multiple interconnected systems: agency operations platforms, asset management and contract management systems, customer relationship management tools, and voice/communication platforms. Their technical footprint spans mainframe computing (z/OS, DB2, COBOL era) through enterprise middleware (Salesforce, IBM tools, Jakarta EE) to modern cloud deployments (AWS, GCP, Azure, React). Core work focuses on system modernization, infrastructure scaling, and business process transformation for large insurance operations.
