GoHealth, Inc. is a leading developer of Web-based sales and online insurance marketing tools for the health insurance industry, helping insurance brokers, agents and carriers connect with customers.
We are a tight-knit team of full-stack web developers with a bunch of new initiatives in the pipeline. Any given day might see us …
- developing models in Rails
- crafting user-centered interfaces with Angular
- split testing responsive stylesheets built on Susy
- dipping a wary toe into a number of intriguingly arcane code bases
This industry moves fast. Rarely does your quarterly plan survive unscathed. You'll always have a new project to get excited about or a sudden problem in need of a creative solution. You'll balance long-term strategic thinking with get-it-done pragmatism. You'll be vocal with your ideas, and open to others'.
You'll defend your chosen text editor with your very life.
What you will do everyday…
- Rapidly prototype new features and applications, with a focus on the client side
- Build internal libraries stuffed with well-factored, reusable code
- Work with graphic designers and copywriters for content
- Write JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Ruby, PHP and more
- Be an HTML expert, CSS guru, JavaScript wizard, and back-end… let's say arc-welder. Often at the same time
What we're looking for…
- Expertise in front-end web development, including one or more client-side MVC frameworks (Angular preferred)
- Expertise in back-end web development, including one or more server-side MVC frameworks (Rails preferred)
- Experience in cross-platform compatibility and responsive design (IE, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, mobile browsers)
- Enthusiasm for test- and behavior-driven development
- Excellent problem solving skills
- Strong verbal communication skills
- Experience working in a small to mid-size company with an agile development process
- Willingness to learn and be part of a fast-growing department
