Position Summary:

As Senior Software Engineer, Product, you'll report to the Senior Director leading ACT (Accelerated Core Technology) and be the team's builder-in-chief for user-facing products. You'll turn rough concepts into polished, working apps and sites fast - sweating the craft and the details without losing speed. If you're a motivated problem solver who's energized by ambiguity and wants your work seen and used by real people at one of the largest health care companies in the world, this is your opportunity to drive rapid, enterprise-wide innovation.

Primary Responsibilities:

  • Design, build, and ship high-quality mobile apps and web experiences end-to-end - from concept to a working product users can test
  • Build cross-platform mobile apps in React Native (primarily iOS, with some Android) and responsive, performant websites
  • Move fast through rapid prototyping and iteration, translating ambiguous ideas into testable experiences and refining them based on real user feedback
  • Own front-end architecture decisions - component systems, state management, performance, and craft.
  • Integrate AI/ML capabilities and APIs into products to bring new ideas to life
  • Partner closely with the team's engineers and downstream product/engineering teams to package and hand off proven concepts for production scaling
  • Set a high bar for visual quality, polish, and usability across everything the team ships
  • Make pragmatic build-vs-buy and good-enough-for-now calls appropriate to a POC and demo environment
  • Use enterprise-approved AI tools to streamline workflows, automate tasks, and drive continuous improvement
  • Design, develop, and deploy AI-powered solutions to address complex business challenges with an emphasis on responsible use of AI


You'll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.

Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or 4+ years of software engineering experience
  • 5+ years of experience building and shipping production mobile apps and/or web applications
  • 2+ years hands-on experience building cross-platform mobile apps with React Native
  • 2+ years of proficiency with modern front-end web frameworks and languages (such as React and TypeScript/JavaScript)
  • A portfolio, app store links, GitHub, or other viewable examples of products you have built (must be included or referenced in the resume)
  • Demonstrated ability to work quickly in ambiguous, fast-paced environments where requirements are not fully defined


Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience integrating AI/ML capabilities, LLMs, or AI APIs into user-facing products
  • Experience taking products from concept to launch, including front-end architecture and design decisions
  • Full-stack development experience and comfort working across the stack to deliver end-to-end features
  • Experience with React Native alongside native iOS (Swift) and/or Android development
  • Strong visual craft and motion/interaction design sensibility, including design systems
  • Background working in a startup, R&D lab, or other fast-paced, rapid-build environment
