Engineer – Early Career

We're building a new healthcare clearinghouse

In the healthcare sector, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) requires that all insurance payers exchange transactions such as claims, eligibility checks, prior authorizations, and remittances using a standardized EDI format called X12 HIPAA. A small group of legacy clearinghouses process the majority of these transactions, offering consolidated connectivity to carriers and providers.

Stedi is the world's only programmable healthcare clearinghouse. By offering modern API interfaces alongside traditional real-time and batch EDI processes, we enable both healthcare technology businesses and established players to exchange mission-critical transactions. Our clearinghouse product and customer-first approach have set us apart. Stedi was ranked as Ramp’s #3 fastest-growing SaaS vendor.

Stedi has lightning in a bottle: engineers and designers shipping products week in and week out; a lean business team supporting the company’s infrastructure; passion for automation and eliminating toil; $92 million in funding from top investors like Stripe, Addition, USV, Bloomberg Beta, First Round Capital, and more.

What we’re looking for 

Stedi is the world's only programmable healthcare clearinghouse. By offering a modern API interface for running eligibility checks, processing claims, and ingesting ERAs, healthcare technology businesses can exchange transactions with payers without dealing with the EDI protocol or carrier-specific connectivity.

As we continue to scale, we are looking for an early-career backend engineer to join our engineering team to help build our healthcare APIs and extend existing systems.

How we build

• We use AWS exclusively for our customer-facing backend infrastructure. We use tools like GitHub, Stripe, and PagerDuty, but all of our application work happens on AWS. 

• We use serverless technologies almost exclusively: Lambda, API Gateway, SQS, SNS, DynamoDB, Aurora Serverless,  and more. We don’t run a single server.

• We use CDK (TypeScript) to define infrastructure as code.

• We write the majority of our API backends and EDI parsing engine in Rust.

What you'll do

• Help build and improve large-scale web applications and APIs alongside experienced engineers.

• Learn to work effectively with AWS serverless technologies and deepen your understanding of architecting cloud systems.

• Contribute to a high standard of engineering through writing clean code and clear communication.

• Play a part in building the most reliable and accessible commercial trading network for our customers.

Who you are 

• 1-3 years of experience coding in general; experience in Rust and TypeScript is beneficial.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field from a strong academic program.

• Experience working with cloud platforms; familiarity with AWS is a plus.

• Committed to working with AWS serverless offerings in a production environment.

• Ability to prioritize your work based on the needs of the business and the customers.

• High bandwidth, fast learner, thoughtful attention to many areas simultaneously.

• Ability to context switch throughout the course of the day or week as priorities shift, and ask for help when you need it.

• Philosophical alignment with the Stedi Standards.
