About the job

Join Pivotal Health

Pivotal Health is a pioneering technology platform dedicated to ensuring fair reimbursement for healthcare providers navigating an increasingly complex financial landscape.

Healthcare providers often face substantial underpayment from insurance companies, despite their commitment to delivering top-tier care. While mechanisms like Independent Dispute Resolution (IDR) aim to foster fairness, they frequently become cumbersome, intricate, and challenging to manage without the right resources.

At Pivotal Health, we merge software, data, and exceptional service into a cohesive, AI-powered platform that streamlines complex reimbursement processes. Our mission is to empower providers to effectively dispute underpaid claims, minimize administrative burdens, and reclaim rightful reimbursements without overloading their already stretched teams.

Our comprehensive IDR solution is merely the beginning. We are committed to developing innovative solutions that grant providers clarity, control, and confidence throughout their reimbursement journey.

About the Opportunity

We are seeking a Lead Software Engineer to develop the backend systems and APIs that drive our core platform. In this critical role, you will collaborate closely with our product, data, and frontend teams to design scalable, reliable services that facilitate swift and accurate out-of-network reimbursement for healthcare providers. Your contributions will be instrumental in shaping the backend architecture of our dynamic healthcare startup.

If you thrive on designing systems that tackle complex challenges and appreciate witnessing the immediate impact of your work, this position is tailor-made for you.

Your Responsibilities

  • Create and sustain backend systems: Design and implement scalable backend services that manage high-throughput data workflows and enable real-time decision-making.
  • Develop resilient APIs: Construct secure, high-performance APIs that power our platform and integrate seamlessly with both internal and external systems.
  • Collaborate across teams: Partner with Product to deliver features from inception to launch. Translate ambiguous requirements into technical solutions that yield tangible business results.
  • Shape our architecture: Influence decisions regarding system design, performance optimization, and scalability. Establish patterns and best practices for our expanding engineering team.
  • Oversee the entire development lifecycle: From design and implementation to testing, deployment, and post-release support , you will guide your projects from start to finish.
