    Healthcare benefits are complex, underutilized and a mystery for most users. We're removing that complexity. Now more than ever, employers are adding value to their employees' benefits like telemedicine and mental health services. HealthJoy's industry-changing tech platform consolidates those benefits into a simplified benefits experience, saving users time and money.

    You will get to work on the latest software practices and technologies such as microservices architecture, cloud design patterns, automated CI/CD pipeline, automated and orchestrated Dockerized delivery, and AWS platform.

    Above all, your work will impact people's interactions with the healthcare system.

    Collaborate with engineering and product team members to improve quality and velocity
    Write high quality code in Python language that is easy to maintain and test

    Coach the team on development and testing best practices
    Lead troubleshooting of critical production incidents and other customer issues in Production, towards resolution and drive continuous improvement of code quality and technology adaptations
    Exhibit accountability at both a personal and team level

    Your experience.

    5+ years experience building and shipping scalable applications in Python

    An ability and eagerness to constantly learn and share knowledge with others

    Job Level: 40


    Base Compensation Range for Job Level:
    $140, ,000 Annually

    The cash compensation above includes base salary only.

    Certain roles are eligible for additional cash incentives such as commission, annual bonus targets, overtime pay or other variable incentives.


    HealthJoy maintains a comprehensive strategy to determine rewarding and competitive packages for individual compensation for new hires, internal promotions and internal job changes.

    This strategy is based on several factors unique to each individual, including: 1) the skills, experience and qualifications of the individual; 2) the responsibilities and demands of the role; 3) analysis of external market data; and 4) company budget and financial performance.

    HealthJoy is a remote-first employer.

    At HealthJoy, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range for their role, and compensation decisions are dependent on the facts and circumstances of each role and individual.

    In addition to cash compensation, HealthJoy offers a rich "Total Rewards" package that includes:

    Medical, Dental and vision insurance packages
    HSA contribution match
    Stock options for eligible roles
    401k match
    Paid parental leave
    Company sponsored Short Term and Long Term Disability coverage
    Flexible PTO

    Commitment to Equal Pay


    At HealthJoy, we are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace where everyone has the opportunity to succeed and thrive.


    We believe that everyone should be paid based on their qualifications, experience, and the work that they do, and not on their gender, race, or any other personal characteristic.

    Our compensation practices are essential to fostering a diverse and inclusive culture where we value the contributions of all our employees.


    We conduct thorough annual reviews of employee pay and our pay practices to ensure we reward the right behaviors and are providing equal pay for equal work.

    Additionally, we assess the external market and internal equity across like roles.

    As part of our regular review of pay practices, HealthJoy examines employee pay for potential disparities between persons of different genders, races and ethnicities that are not explainable by objective factors such as performance, experience level, credentials, or location, and are committed to correcting any issues and reviewing practices from unintended outcomes.

    Commitment to Equal Opportunity

    HealthJoy is committed to creating a diverse environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.


    All qualified applicants receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or any other basis forbidden under federal, state, or local law.


    Don't meet every single requirement? We know the confidence gap and imposter syndrome can get in the way of meeting spectacular candidates, so please don't hesitate to apply — we'd love to hear from you.

    HealthJoy is dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you're excited about this role and HealthJoy, we encourage you to apply.

    You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.
