We’re looking for a driven Backend Engineer to join our team and help eliminate the financial complexity of healthcare.

- Draft internal and external technical documentation
- Seek and prioritize technical and product feedback from internal customers
- Iterate quickly with an eye towards value

- Experience working with different programming languages (Go, Java / Kotlin / Scala / etc)
- Experience creating libraries and tools for engineers and operations
- Experience working with SQL or NoSQL databases
- Experience with OLAP datastore technologies such as ClickHouse or Apache Pinot
