Staff Software Engineer

About the role

We are rebuilding health insurance for small businesses. Our goal is to make sure as much of every premium dollar as possible goes to care instead of getting absorbed by the system around it. We do this by identifying fraud earlier, steering members toward higher-quality and lower-cost care, automating operational overhead, and eliminating vendors whose business exists mostly to take a cut. AI is the foundation that makes this work. We use it across underwriting, operations, clinical programs, and member experience to build an insurer that becomes more efficient as the technology improves.

What You Will Do

• Design and ship full-stack products across the insurance lifecycle, working across React, React Native, TypeScript, Python, Postgres, and modern AI infrastructure.
• Create AI-native underwriting systems that synthesize risk, structure messy data, and assist decision-making.
• Develop claims tooling that automates review, coordination, and document processing workflows.
• Build internal operational platforms for teams managing millions in premiums and healthcare spend.
• Build member-facing products that combine conversational AI, navigation, and real-time healthcare workflows.
• Design retrieval, memory, and evaluation systems that improve reliability and operational performance over time.
• Work directly with operational teams to identify bottlenecks and rapidly ship systems that eliminate manual work.
• Own projects end-to-end: product architecture, backend systems, frontend experiences, AI integration, and production deployment.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong experience building and shipping full-stack products across modern infrastructure (Python, Postgres, TypeScript, React/React Native).
• Excellent product and engineering judgment in ambiguous environments.
• The ability to independently own large systems from idea to production.
• High standards for execution, velocity, and code quality.

• Join an important mission: Your work directly influences how people access care and improves lives at scale.
• Growth & expansion: We’re moving fast, and as we grow, your scope will grow with us—new challenges, bigger opportunities, and rapid career velocity.
• Apply AI to a problem that matters: Instead of optimizing ads or cutting labor costs, you’ll use AI to fundamentally reimagine how people get healthcare.
• High pace, high collaboration: We operate with velocity, first-principles thinking, and a team that works closely, openly, and with ambition.
