As a Software Engineer on the Product Experience team at Thatch, you’ll build the core experiences that make it easy for employers to give — and employees to get — great healthcare. You’ll enable employers to quickly and efficiently manage their employee benefits, build tools that help members choose the right plans for their families, and help our external partners integrate Thatch into their service offerings.
You'll collaborate with talented engineers, designers, and cross-functional partners to craft polished, thoughtful end-to-end experiences. Your work will directly impact employers' ability to offer great benefits and give our members confidence in making informed healthcare and financial decisions.
If multiple software engineer roles might be a fit for you, apply to any one, and we’ll work together to find the best match.
- Craft compelling user experiences across Thatch's platforms, from member dashboards to employer portals.
- Work with a wide range of systems, processes, and technologies to own and solve problems from end-to-end.
- Collaborate with peers across the organization such as product, design, and operations to build and share new features.
- Elevate our engineering standards while ensuring consistency throughout the codebase.
- Troubleshoot and resolve production challenges across various services and stack levels.
- 8+ years of experience building web applications as a full-stack engineer, ideally at a tech company, with flexibility for exceptional candidates.
- Willingness to put yourself in the shoes of employers and be a steward of crafting great experiences.
- Experience building software in modern languages and frameworks (we’re currently using Ruby, TypeScript, React, TailwindCSS, and more). We believe languages can be learned, so we welcome you to apply if you're proficient with any modern language.
- Excitement about building systems from first principles and operating in an ambiguous environment.
- We hire for potential — even if you don't meet all the criteria listed here, we encourage you to apply!
- Experience or interest in finance, healthcare, or benefits.
- Experience building, integrating, or managing HR and payroll systems.
We interview rigorously based on integrity, talent, and drive; the trust we display in our teammates is a reflection of the confidence we have in this process. We aim to evaluate the things you’ll do daily as best we can, and we move quickly — the entire interview process is typically complete within 2 weeks.
