Company Description

BillCare is a venture-backed healthcare startup in an early pilot phase working to make medical bills and benefits easier to understand and act on. We’re preparing to launch a live employer pilot beginning on February 16th, and we’re looking for a Founding Engineer (Pilot Phase) to take technical ownership during this critical window. This is a 90-day, high-responsibility, high-visibility role focused on supporting a real product with real users — not a toy project or resume filler.

Role Description

This is a remote role located for a Founding Engineer at BillCare. The Founding Engineer will be responsible for designing, developing, and maintaining key software systems, implementing technical solutions, and ensuring high-quality code and architecture standards. The role involves collaborating closely with the founding team to define product features and scope, managing end-to-end software development processes, and identifying the best technologies to meet business goals. Joining as a founding member, you will play a crucial role in shaping the company’s technical strategy and culture.

Qualifications

Strong proficiency in software design, development, and programming languages commonly used for web and mobile applications.
Experience in system architecture, scalability practices, and cloud infrastructure.
Skilled in debugging, diagnosing, and optimizing software applications for performance.
Strong knowledge of DevOps practices, version control systems like Git, and deployment pipelines.
Excellent problem-solving skills, independent thinking, and a proactive approach to challenges.
Strong communication skills and ability to work collaboratively in a team-focused environment.
Previous experience in startup settings or product development is a plus.
Bachelor's or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field is preferred.
