    • You enjoy working in, and strive to implement mechanisms to drive high-velocity, highly functioning engineering teams.
    • You care deeply about implementing best practices to establish trust and reliability within our technical stack, because you understand the weight and responsibility of being the data infrastructure for our customers.
    • You are not afraid of rolling up your sleeves and working on hard, ambiguous problems.
    • You value mentoring and coaching, and see that as a core part of your role as an engineering leader.
    • Huge bonus if you have industry experience with benefits and/or claims data.
    • Experience working with cloud technologies, preferably AWS.

    • Architect, drive, and build high-impact projects across the organization by balancing between individual contribution and by leading others.
    • Mentor and guide engineers, both junior and senior level, to make sure we are building the foundation of our next generation of leaders.
    • Communicate and collaborate with departments outside of engineering such as product, the customer team, and go-to-market on high impact initiatives.
    • Participate and drive communication loops within engineering such as technical specs, code reviews, and technical grooming sessions.

    The salary range for New York based candidates for this role is $185,000-$245,000. We use a location factor to adjust this range for candidates that are located outside of geographic region of our New York office. Placement within the salary band is determined based on experience.
