Job Description
Opportunity Overview
We are seeking a Software Engineer II to join our Engineering team. In this role, you will independently deliver features and improvements to healthcare technology that powers prior authorization for health plans covering 15+ million members. You'll own story-sized work from design through deployment — decomposing problems, coordinating dependencies, and shipping reliable software with minimal oversight. You'll partner with your squad, product, and QA to build systems that healthcare practitioners rely on daily. This is an opportunity to deepen your engineering skills, take ownership of meaningful work, and grow toward technical leadership in a high-impact healthcare environment. This is a remote-first role that may require travel to Boston, MA for new hire onboarding and occasional in-person team meetings and company events.

- Design and ship features with strong quality discipline — writing appropriate tests, producing accurate estimates, and confirming priorities with your team
- Write short design notes for non-trivial work, articulating tradeoffs between approaches before committing to implementation
- Debug and resolve production issues in your owned area, using logs, metrics, and traces to identify root causes and ship fixes
- Identify and ship small platform or process enhancements that improve developer experience, code quality, or operational reliability
- Provide high-signal code reviews that catch issues, suggest improvements, and help teammates grow
- Support onboarding of new team members and mentor interns or new hires on bounded, well-scoped tasks
- Coordinate across tasks and dependencies within your stories — working with PM, QA, and adjacent engineers to re
