The Zebra runs a consumer insurance comparison marketplace that matches shoppers with carriers in real time. Its stack pairs Kafka and Apache Flink streaming with Snowflake, dbt and BigQuery, consistent with lead-routing work on dynamic pricing, buyer rejection and traffic routing. A heavy QA layer of Selenium, Cypress, Playwright and WebdriverIO alongside test-coverage pain points signals a push toward automated testing reliability.
