Come for the mission. Stay for the experience.

Let’s keep things simple: we are an unbelievably talented, hard-working, and compassionate team driving towards a mission that impacts every single one of us - even you! 

Healthcare benefits are complex, underutilized and a mystery for most users. We’re removing that complexity. Now more than ever, employers are adding value to their employees’ benefits like telemedicine and mental health services. HealthJoy’s industry-changing tech platform consolidates those benefits into a simplified benefits experience, saving users time and money.

We’re continuing down the path of high growth and high impact, and this role is a key member of the Marketing Team making that happen.

  • Collaborate on architectural decisions and design best practices
  • Design and implement new features into the HealthJoy platform
  • Collaborate with engineering and product team members to improve quality and velocity
  • Creating a scalable solution to serve our growing user base

  • Track record of developing on backend libraries such as Asyncio, Aiohttp, Flask, SQLAlchemy, or equivalent
  • Experience with relational databases (we use Postgres)
  • Previous experience with data processing and manipulation workflows and implementation is a plus
  • Experience working in an event-driven architecture and utilization of microservices where applicable.

We conduct thorough annual reviews of employee pay and our pay practices to ensure we reward the right behaviors and are providing equal pay for equal work. 

Additionally, we assess the external market and internal equity across like roles. As part of our regular review of pay practices, HealthJoy examines employee pay for potential disparities between persons of different genders, races and ethnicities that are not explainable by objective factors such as performance, experience level, credentials, or location, and are committed to correcting any issues and reviewing practices from unintended outcomes.
