The Opportunity

We’re looking for a passionate and skilled Software Engineer to join our fast growing engineering teams to revolutionize healthcare billing products and systems that directly address the needs of our customers. You will contribute to the full software development lifecycle, ensure high scalable, reliable and performance of our products and customer experience. If you thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative environment, are driven by customer outcomes, and are committed to crafting robust and scalable solutions, we would like you to join us! 

What you’ll be doing

  • Write clean, well-documented, testable and maintainable code.

  • Design, develop, and maintain complex features and develop ownership over large swaths of our products and systems.

  • Collaborate closely with product managers, and other engineers to understand customers’ needs and develop creative ways to address them.

  • Contribute to architecture and design of our systems with scalability and reliability as core principles. 

  • Play a part to shape our engineering culture and help make this the best place we’ve ever worked.

Who you are

  • You have Bachelors of Science or Bachelors of Art in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Math or other similar degree.

  • You have 3+ years of experience in a Software Engineering position. 

  • Experience with the technologies we currently use is a plus, but by no means required: Python, PostgreSQL, Docker, Kubernetes, React, Typescript, Google Cloud Platform, Auth0, Terraform.

  • You enjoy building high-quality software, but you also anchor on outcomes and have good intuition around which corners are worth cutting and which aren’t. 

  • You enjoy owning features end-to-end and are comfortable learning new tools or moving across the stack to do so.

  • You have a customer-first and learner’s mindset, and value teaching others.

  • You’re a clear and concise communicator; you enjoy the challenge of explaining complicated ideas in simple terms, both in-person and in writing.
