Responsibilities

Working under the guidance of senior developers and engineering leaders, you will apply foundational software engineering concepts to tactical coding tasks, write automated unit tests, support continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, and develop deep domain expertise in core billing functions (e.g., EDI 837 claim submissions, 835 payment posting, other EDI responses, and invoicing engines).

Requirements

• Foundational programming proficiency in at least one object-oriented or functional language (e.g., Java, C#/.NET, Python, or JavaScript/TypeScript)
• Basic understanding of Git version control workflows (clone, branch, commit, pull request)
• Basic knowledge of relational database queries (SQL) and RESTful Web API structures
• Strong critical thinking skills, a continuous learning mindset, and the ability to articulate technical blockers and ask clarifying questions proactively within an agile team environment

Preferred Qualifications

• Basic exposure to cloud development environments (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
• Foundational understanding of healthcare data standards or core RCM billing workflows, specifically claims management (e.g., EDI 837/835 transaction files, HIPAA compliance) and invoicing systems (e.g., patient statement generation, fee schedules, billing reconciliation)
• Familiarity with automated unit testing frameworks (e.g., JUnit, NUnit, Jest)
• Basic exposure to modern DevOps tooling, CI/CD pipelines, or messaging architectures

Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Health Informatics, or a related STEM field (or equivalent practical experience / completed accredited coding bootcamp)
