This role joins the Insurance Division's Solutions Department as a backend engineer developing products and solutions for insurance companies. The work covers both the company's healthcare platform and new systems delivered through joint projects with large companies.

Responsibilities include designing scalable foundations, planning and implementing new features, and developing customized functionality for specific customer needs. Insights from customizations are intended to be generalized and incorporated into the core product. The engineer also participates in healthcare-focused system development, including technology selection, requirements definition, architecture design, implementation, and release. The role involves considering regulations, the handling of personal health records, and security requirements, and supports development from requirements definition through release.

Applicants must also be able to coordinate with stakeholders and carry development work forward.

The development environment includes C# with ASP.NET Core and PHP with Laravel for web applications and backends, Dart with Flutter for mobile applications, and Terraform for infrastructure as code. AWS is the main cloud platform, with Azure and GCP also in use. Visual Studio and other necessary IDEs, GitHub or GitLab, Slack, Confluence, Gemini Enterprise, and GitHub Copilot are also used. Technology selection is possible according to the development work, with a policy of adopting statically typed languages and frameworks that support robust programming.

Experience in healthcare, medicine, or life insurance is welcome, as are AWS development, OAuth or OIDC integrations, CI/CD, end-to-end testing and automation, and quantitative or qualitative analysis platforms using logs. The department consists of a director, project managers, tech leads, upstream SEs or project leads, backend engineers, and a designer.
