About the role

We are here to create great healthcare products. That’s at our very core, but it’s the people who make companies great, not the other way around.

Develop scalable, robust financial integration solutions that align with customer needs and business goals. Audit requirements when integrating third-party financial platforms.
  
• Team Management. Managing the performance and development of the engineering team by setting performance goals, providing feedback, coaching, and mentoring.

• Problem-Solving. Identifying and resolving technical and non-technical issues that arise during project execution, and making adjustments to project plans as needed.
  
• Quality Control. Ensuring that engineering projects meet quality standards and that deliverables are completed to a high level of quality.
