Full job description
Opportunity Overview:
This is a remote-first role that may require travel to Boston, MA for new hire onboarding and occasional in-person team meetings and company events.
We are seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join our Engineering team. In this role, you will build and operate mission-critical healthcare technology that powers prior authorization for health plans covering 15+ million members. You'll work across the full stack — backend services, event-driven pipelines, and provider-facing web applications — to deliver systems that healthcare practitioners and clinical operations teams depend on daily. You'll partner closely with product, design, clinical, and platform teams to ship high-quality software in a complex, multi-tenant healthcare environment. This is an opportunity to solve distributed systems problems where engineering quality directly impacts patient access to care.
What you’ll do:
Own epic-level efforts end-to-end — from technical design and milestone decomposition through implementation, testing, and production deployment
Design, build, and maintain services and applications across the full stack: backend (Java, Groovy/Grails), frontend (React, TypeScript), data (MongoDB), and event-driven messaging (Kafka)
Proactively identify systemic technical risks including performance bottlenecks, reliability gaps, data consistency issues, and accumulated technical debt — proposing and executing solutions
Evaluate technical approaches through design docs, pilots, and experiments — documenting decisions, tradeoffs, and outcomes to inform team direction
Mentor engineers through code reviews, design discussions, and pairing — fostering a culture of ownership, learning, and technical excellence
Lead technical design discussions, bringing data-driven analysis and written tradeoffs to resolve ambiguity and align cross-functional stakeholders
Ensure launch readiness for your epics — comprehensive testing, rollout strategy, monitoring, and rollback plans — coordinating across teams when dependencies exist
Collaborate with cross-functional teams (product, design, clinical, platform) to deliver high-quality experiences while balancing quality, delivery timelines, and operational constraints
What you’ll need:
5+ years of professional software engineering experience with increasing scope and ownership
Strong backend development experience using Java or Groovy, including designing and operating production-grade services
Experience building modern web applications with React, JavaScript, and TypeScript
Hands-on experience with NoSQL data stores (e.g., MongoDB), including schema design and query optimization
Demonstrated ability to own and deliver epic-sized efforts — decomposing work into milestones, leading execution, and shipping with design-doc quality
Experience building systems that integrate with external partners or upstream data sources, including APIs and event- or message-driven workflows (Kafka or similar)
Proficiency with modern development practices including version control (Git), automated testing, and CI/CD pipelines
Strong collaboration skills and ability to work effectively across team boundaries with product, design, and engineering partners
Proven ability to mentor other engineers and elevate team quality through reviews and technical guidance
Bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, or equivalent practical experience
Experience in healthcare or life sciences industry, plus
Familiarity with healthcare interoperability standards (FHIR, HL7), plus
Experience with multi-tenant systems handling client-specific configurations at scale, plus
Experience with API decomposition or monolith-to-services migration patterns, plus
Hands-on experience with test frameworks such as Cypress, Playwright, JUnit, or Jest, plus
Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS) and distributed systems at scale, plus
Pay & Perks:
💻 Fully remote opportunity with about 5% travel
🩺 Medical, dental, vision, life, disability insurance, and Employee Assistance Program
📈 401K retirement plan with company match; flexible spending and health savings account
🏝️ Flex Time Off + company holidays
👶 Up to 14 weeks of paid parental leave
🐶 Pet insurance
The salary range for this position is $135,000 to $160,000 annually; as part of a total benefits package which includes health insurance, 401k and bonus. In accordance with state applicable laws, Cohere is required to provide a reasonable estimate of the compensation range for this role. Individual pay decisions are ultimately based on a number of factors, including but not limited to qualifications for the role, experience level, skillset, and internal alignment.
