The summary above was generated by AI

Overview

We’re looking for two Full Stack Engineers to join a high-impact healthcare technology project. You’ll help build and scale a benefits platform that makes it easier for people to access life-saving medications. This platform is preparing for significant growth and seasonal demand in early 2026 - and you’ll be part of the team driving performance, new feature development, and real-time integrations.

This is an opportunity to work with a modern tech stack (Next.js, Node.js/TypeScript, AWS Lambda), contribute directly to product features that matter, and operate in a collaborative, async-first environment.

Key Responsibilities
  • Optimize data loading and UI rendering for scale
  • Build new, customer-facing user interfaces with Next.js
  • Integrate machine learning predictions into user views
  • Connect the platform to external REST APIs for real-time insights
  • Capture usage metrics and display through Datadog dashboards
  • Contribute to an agile delivery model (two-week sprints, daily standups, async collaboration)
  • Own your work end-to-end: from planning, to building, to testing (no separate QA or BA teams)
What We’re Looking For

Must-Have Experience:

  • 3–6 years as a Full Stack Engineer
  • Next.js (React) for modern front-end development
  • Node.js + TypeScript, with hands-on AWS Lambda experience
  • Strong understanding of modern web development and data structures
  • Comfortable working independently and testing your own code

Nice-to-Haves:

  • Familiarity with PostgreSQL and writing efficient queries
  • Experience with SST (Serverless Stack) or other IaC frameworks
  • Knowledge of Datadog instrumentation
  • Previous work in healthtech or benefits platforms
Tools & Environment
  • Node.js / TypeScript
  • Next.js (React)
  • PostgreSQL
  • AWS Lambda, Middy
  • SST (Infrastructure as Code)
  • Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket
  • Established CI/CD pipelines
Why This Project is Exciting
  • High impact: Your work will directly improve patient access to critical medication
  • Modern stack: No legacy baggage, you’ll work with the latest frameworks and cloud-native tools
  • Autonomy & ownership: Define, build, and deliver features in a team that values independence and results
Logistics
  • Remote, with strong overlap required in US time zones (PST/CST)
  • Contract through February 2026, with potential to extend
  • Start ASAP (ideally within 2 weeks)
Hiring Process
  1. Virtasant technical screen (includes Codabyte assessment)
  2. Single 45-minute client team interview (no live coding test)
  3. Offer & onboarding
