Key Skills for This Role
graphqltypescript
Full Job Posting
Nice to Have
- Experience in health insurance, benefits, or a regulated healthcare / fintech domain — enough to understand the tools we're building and the compliance constraints (PHI / PII, HIPAA) that shape them
- Familiarity with data analytics and product instrumentation
- Experience laying technical foundations on a small, fast-moving team
Qualifications
- 5+ years building and planning product features as a full-stack engineer
- Strong command of our stack — or the range to get there quickly (React / TypeScript / GraphQL / Node)
- Strong cross-functional collaboration — you're comfortable working directly with non-technical stakeholders and turning a loosely-defined problem into a shipped solution
- Product sense: the judgment to make scope and tradeoff decisions and define what “done” looks like, not just execute against a spec
- Hands-on experience using AI development tools (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or similar) as part of your daily workflow
- A working understanding of how to build with LLMs — agents, skills, prompt design, and the judgment for where each approach fits
- The instinct to think past “does it work?” to “will it scale, and can we see how it's used?”
- Strong problem-solving and communication skills
- Passion for fixing the broken offboarding system and helping people through their job transitions
Responsibilities
- Ship features across the stack. Plan, design, and implement product features end to end, working closely with product to develop the right solution.
- Partner directly with stakeholders. Work shoulder-to-shoulder with the teams you're building for — member services, operations, and beyond — to turn ambiguous problems into shipped solutions, without waiting for a full spec to be handed down.
- Own the product thinking. Scope work, weigh tradeoffs, and decide what to build — not just how to build it. Your speed with AI tooling means you'll often carry a problem from idea to launch yourself.
- Build with AI. Integrate LLM-driven experiences, agents, and reusable skills into the platform — not as bolt-ons, but as core parts of how the product works.
- Move fast with modern tooling. Use AI development tools like Claude Code to prototype and ship quickly without sacrificing quality.
- Keep the codebase healthy. Write clean, testable, maintainable code and perform thoughtful code reviews for the rest of the team.
- Make your work observable. Instrument what you build so we can see how users engage with it, where they struggle, and how our member services team can support them.
- Communicate and coordinate. Clearly communicate implementation requirements to the team and help manage day-to-day work through our agile process.
- Tech Stack
- Frontend: React, TypeScript, MaterialUI, GraphQL
- Backend: Node.js, TypeScript, Firebase Functions, Apollo GraphQL, Firestore
- AI: LangGraph, LangSmith, Claude / LLM APIs, agent & skill development, Claude Code
- Ops: GCP (Firebase hosting, Firestore, pub/sub, serverless functions, load balancers, BigQuery), GitLab, JIRA, Notion, Apollo Studio, Cypress.io, Jest
