Software Engineer - San Francisco (Onsite)

Software Engineer (Full-Stack, Back-End Leaning)

Company Overview

We are a rapidly growing technology startup in the HealthTech sector, serving as a critical administrative partner for new healthcare insurance companies. Our proprietary platform manages the complex administrative and operational back-office functions required to launch and scale health plans.

Following a successful recent funding round and a period of 20x customer growth driven by business seasonality, we are rapidly expanding our core engineering and operations teams. We value mission-driven builders who thrive in a fast-paced environment and are excited by the opportunity to shape the future of healthcare administration.

The Opportunity

We are seeking a Software Engineer to join our small, high-impact team. This is a role for a proven builder, not just a task-taker. You will be responsible for owning projects end-to-end, acting as your own product manager to define specifications and deliver robust features daily.

This role requires a full-stack skillset, with a strong emphasis on back-end development and infrastructure work, as much of our current focus involves building out core administrative capabilities.

Key Responsibilities

• Project Ownership: Independently scope, design, and implement features across our core platform, from defining technical specifications to deployment.
• Feature Development: Write clean, efficient, and well-tested code for both front-end and back-end systems, with a focus on core infrastructure and data processing.
• Collaboration: Work closely with the operations team and leadership to translate business needs into technical solutions.
• Process Improvement: Contribute to architectural decisions and improve engineering best practices within a high-growth environment.

Candidate Qualifications

Required Experience

• Experience: 2–5 years of professional software engineering experience.
• Independence: Proven ability to take a high-level scope and manage a project independently through design, build, and launch.
• Technical Stack: Full-stack engineer comfortable with a back-end leaning focus; solid understanding of infrastructure is essential.
• Industry Preference: Experience working at a fast-growing startup, preferably in the HealthTech, InsurTech, or FinTech spaces.

Cultural Fit & Values

• Mission-Driven: Highly interested in applying technology to solve complex problems in healthcare and making a tangible impact.
• Stability: A stable job history (e.g., spending 3+ years in previous roles) is strongly preferred.
• Equity Mindset: Highly motivated by the opportunity for significant equity upside in an early-stage company, not solely salary-focused.

Compensation and Benefits

• Salary Range: Competitive
• Equity: Significant equity compensation package, with a target range of 0.1% to 1.0% depending on experience level.
• Work Model: Four days a week in-office in San Francisco (One flex remote day).
• Visa Sponsorship: We are not currently able to sponsor visas.
