The Role
Are you a Fullstack Engineer eager to make a significant impact in a mission-driven environment? Do you excel in high-autonomy startup settings? If so, we want you on our engineering team at Propel. In this role, you will have the chance to switch between individual contributor and engineering management responsibilities!
This position will allow you to work on various products and technology stacks, including engaging with government programs, identifying savings opportunities, facilitating user enrollment in healthcare plans, developing internal tools, and architectural design. We seek a passionate, user-focused Fullstack Engineer excited about tackling meaningful and complex technical challenges that positively influence our users’ lives.
Your Impact:
- Strategically Lead Technical and Product Initiatives: You will play a vital role in identifying the best technical and product opportunities—whether building a new service from the ground up or advocating for significant improvements to a legacy system. Your voice will be instrumental in shaping the company’s technical and product direction, and you will take a hands-on approach to help realize these initiatives. Leading a team will also be part of your responsibilities.
- Set Engineering Standards: You will serve as a role model for your peers and establish best practices for technical decisions, code quality, documentation, and ensuring high-quality product delivery within timelines.
- Address Complex Challenges: When high-complexity tasks arise, you will be the go-to person for solutions. You will enjoy autonomy while receiving ample support to tackle these rewarding challenges!
