Empassion is one of the most impactful and exciting start ups in health care. We are focused on improving the experience and lowering costs for seniors at end of life. Specifically, we provide palliative and hospice care for seniors with serious illness and high risk of an over-medicalized death. This population is highly neglected in the current market.
 
Empassion clients are payers and risk-bearing entities and we work with community palliative and hospice partners to deliver superior outcomes. We are live today across 44 states and growing rapidly.
Empassion is a hybrid remote/in-person company, with headquarters in NYC. We prioritize asynchronous work and communication but are quick to get on a call, Zoom, or even flight if the situation requires higher fidelity discussion. You will have the opportunity to spend time with colleagues in person, including an all-team offsite 1-2x per year (location varies).

About the Role
As a Senior Software Engineer, you will efficiently service business operations and growth and be a technical leader for the engineering team.  You will join a dynamic team who is focused on improving the lives of seniors with serious illness. 
You like to get stuff done! You will own and lead high-impact technical projects, including the design, development, and implementation of key systems in our technology stack. Having many years of experience in software development, you will use your expertise to establish technical direction for complex engineering projects and oversee the delivery of multiple engineering projects simultaneously. You will proactively seek out technical debt in our existing architecture and own efforts to correct it with best practices in engineering and system design.
The Senior Software Engineer will report directly to the Director of Technology, a technology leader with many years of experience delivering software and managing engineering teams in high growth environments. This position will require you to take ownership over critical engineering initiatives and enable efficient delivery of product improvements through both your individual contributions and the multiplier effect you have on other engineers on your team. You will work closely with a highly skilled team of full-stack engineers, a data engineer, and an IT Manager.
Empassion is a remote company, fully distributed across the United States. We prioritize asynchronous work and communication but are quick to get on a call, Zoom, or even flight if the situation requires higher fidelity discussion. You will have the opportunity to spend time with colleagues in person, including monthly meetings in NYC and an all-team offsite 1-2x per year (location varies).
Why you belong here and how you will grow:
You are a curious problem solver and thrive on having the autonomy to own complex technical projects from initial design to final implementation. You are a strong communicator with a bias to action and are skilled in creating proof of concepts for proposals to right-size solutions before building for scale.  This position will allow you to exercise creative ownership to overcome technical challenges, collaborate with a team of talented engineers, enhance your value-based care expertise, and contribute to the successful operation and growth of our business. 
We are dedicated to cultivating relationships built for trust and meaningful experiences that promote your growth. We recognize the value of autonomy, flexibility, and ownership while keeping sight of the importance of real-life experiences. We do not accept anything less than respectful, supportive, and growth-oriented teammates.

What success looks like
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams and provide technical expertise for the design, development, and testing of high-impact product improvements on our technology roadmap, 
  • Become an internal expert on our Web Application architecture which includes a Vue.js Front End, a Python Django Web API, and various GCP cloud infrastructure including Google Kubernetes Engine, Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL, Cloud Storage, and BigQuery.
  • Bias towards action, including proactively uncovering technical debt and leading efforts to improve it with best practices in software development and system design
  • Proactively anticipate risks and roadblocks and develop mitigation strategies to ensure the successful execution of the technology roadmap
  • Identify and implement process improvements to increase engineering efficiency, reduce costs, and improve the quality of our architecture
  • Maintain strong working relationships within the engineering team and with cross-functional teams at Empassion
  • Establish and reinforce best practices for successful scoping, designing, and execution of technical projects within the engineering team


  • What you will bring
  • 7+ years of experience in Software Development, with a strong preference for Back-End development experience in the healthcare industry.
  • Extensive expertise in designing, building, and testing scalable Back-End Web APIs Expert level proficiency in the Python programming language with an extensive background in Django and Django Rest Framework (DRF)
  • Working knowledge of fundamental DevOps skills including CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, container orchestration with Docker and Kubernetes, and cloud infrastructure to support web applications such as Cloud SQL and Cloud Storage.
  • Strong understanding of relational database design, indexing, and optimization with a preference for experience with PostgreSQL (Postgres)
  • Strong proficiency in designing and implementing complex state management systems including state machines and rules engines.
  • A track record of scoping, developing and testing complex software development projects for diverse stakeholders across multiple functional areas.
  • You can efficiently proof of concept proposals to help identify right-sized solutions before building for scale.  
  • You are a strategic thinker and have a strong sense of personal accountability to deliver results. 
  • You are a team player who is passionate about taking ownership over complex technical problems and guiding other engineers through challenging architectural decisions.
  • You have a passion for leading code reviews and ensuring the highest quality standards for maintainability in codebases
  • You are an excellent communicator and respectful of your colleagues, and you thrive in a fast-paced team environment. 
  • You have experience working in ambiguous, often changing and high growth environments.


  • Remote vs. In person
    Though Empassion is a fully remote company, we do have programming and events which require us to be in person, including team and company-wide meetings.
