About the role

The Associate Engineer is an entry-level role for early-career engineers eager to learn and grow.

• Learn the product architecture, integration points (Epic, athenahealth, Liberty/RedSail), and compliance requirements (HIPAA, SOC 2, HITECH)
• Document your work clearly and ask questions proactively to accelerate your learning

Requirements

• 0–1 years of professional software development experience, including internships or significant academic/personal projects
• Foundational proficiency in at least one programming language (e.g., Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, or Go)
• Understanding of core computer science fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, and version control (Git)
• Eagerness to learn, strong communication skills, and a collaborative mindset
