Join us as we work to create a thriving ecosystem that delivers accessible, high-quality, and sustainable healthcare for all.
We are seeking a Software Engineer to join our Care Management team within the athenaClinicals Product Engineering organization.
The Team:
Our athenaClinicals team builds impactful solutions used daily by over 160,000 healthcare providers. We create interfaces that make interactions with electronic health records seamless and ensure clinicians see what they need, when they need it. Driven by innovation and passion, we’re committed to making a meaningful impact in healthcare.
Within Clinicals, the Care Management and Coordination team develops workflows that help providers deliver effective, value-based care for groups of patients. Since most interactions occur outside of clinics, our tools support care management and patient support between visits. If you’re excited about building solutions that improve care coordination in a changing healthcare landscape, this is a great opportunity to join a forward-thinking team at athenahealth.
The Role:
You are a full-stack developer with a problem-solving mindset and a desire to grow your skills in healthcare technology. Above all, you’re a team player—communicating clearly, collaborating effectively, and sharing knowledge to deliver successful projects in a fast-paced environment. This role offers the chance to build solutions that truly make a difference while continuing your professional growth.
Job Responsibilities
Design and develop full-stack applications within an Agile team, collaborating with product owners and designers.
Follow best practices for code quality, security, and testing (unit, integration, end-to-end).
Work with teammates to improve productivity, share insights, and adopt best practices organization-wide.
Take ownership of your work, deepen your domain knowledge, and support projects from design through deployment.
Troubleshoot and resolve bugs or performance issues in development and production environments.
Actively participate in Agile ceremonies such as planning, reviews, and retrospectives.
Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field.
2–4 years of product development experience.
Proficient in Java; familiarity with Spring Boot and REST APIs is a plus.
Experience with React and JavaScript/TypeScript; GraphQL knowledge is a bonus.
Basic understanding of relational databases and SQL.
Exposure to cloud platforms like AWS (EKS/Kubernetes, ECS), Docker, and Helm is advantageous.
Familiarity with CI/CD workflows, Linux/Unix environments, and software best practices.
Team player, eager to learn, with effective communication skills in a collaborative environment.
About athenahealth
Our vision: In an industry that becomes more complex by the day, we stand for simplicity. We offer IT solutions and expert services that eliminate the daily hurdles preventing healthcare providers from focusing entirely on their patients — powered by our vision to create a thriving ecosystem that delivers accessible, high-quality, and sustainable healthcare for all.
Our company culture: Our talented employees — or athenistas, as we call ourselves — spark the innovation and passion needed to accomplish our vision. We are a diverse group of dreamers and do-ers with unique knowledge, expertise, backgrounds, and perspectives. We unite as mission-driven problem-solvers with a deep desire to achieve our vision and make our time here count. Our award-winning culture is built around shared values of inclusiveness, accountability, and support.
Our DEI commitment: Our vision of accessible, high-quality, and sustainable healthcare for all requires addressing the inequities that stand in the way. That's one reason we prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion in every aspect of our business, from attracting and sustaining a diverse workforce to maintaining an inclusive environment for athenistas, our partners, customers and the communities where we work and serve.
What we can do for you:
Along with health and financial benefits, athenistas enjoy perks specific to each location, including commuter support, employee assistance programs, tuition assistance, employee resource groups, and collaborative workspaces — some offices even welcome dogs.
We also encourage a better work-life balance for athenistas with our flexibility. While we know in-office collaboration is critical to our vision, we recognize that not all work needs to be done within an office environment, full-time. With consistent communication and digital collaboration tools, athenahealth enables employees to find a balance that feels fulfilling and productive for each individual situation.
In addition to our traditional benefits and perks, we sponsor events throughout the year, including book clubs, external speakers, and hackathons. We provide athenistas with a company culture based on learning, the support of an engaged team, and an inclusive environment where all employees are valued.
