Full Stack Developer
Security Benefit Business Services / Everly Life
Role Description We are seeking a Full Stack Developer to build, test, and support key components of our next-generation insurance platform. This is a hands-on engineering role where you will contribute across the full stack — APIs, event-driven integrations, data pipelines, and self-service portals — working within an established architecture alongside a small, high-velocity team. You will work closely with the Product Owner, Solution Architect, and Senior Engineers to translate well-defined requirements into clean, testable, production-ready code. You will be guided by architectural patterns and platform standards that are already in place, with growing opportunity to contribute to design decisions as you deepen your domain knowledge. The ideal candidate brings solid full-stack engineering fundamentals, an openness to AI-assisted development tooling, and a genuine eagerness to learn the insurance domain. You don’t need to have all the answers — but you must be curious, thorough, and committed to shipping things that work correctly in production. What You’ll Do - Contribute to the build of platform capabilities — writing clean, well-tested code that follows established service contracts, event schemas, and data models. - Build, test, and support services across their full lifecycle, from initial development through to production, taking accountability for the quality of your own work. - Work within API-first, event-driven patterns following agreed platform architecture and governance standards under the guidance of engineering lead. - Use AI-assisted engineering tools as a standard part of your daily workflow to write, validate, and refactor code more effectively. - Implement integrations with the policy administration system and internal service dependencies, following established patterns and contracts. - Build out workflow features that support insurance processes such as underwriting and policy issuance, working from well-scoped requirements. - Collaborate with the Product Owner, Solution Architect, and teammates to understand requirements clearly, ask good questions, and flag risks early. - Apply security and compliance patterns — identity, access control, encryption, and data handling — consistently and correctly in every feature you deliver. - Maintain testing quality writing unit, integration, and E2E tests as part of every piece of work. - Participate in code reviews giving and receiving feedback constructively. Qualifications - Bachelor’s or master’s degree in computer science, engineering, or a related field — or equivalent practical experience. - 5+ years of software engineering experience with a track record of delivering features end-to-end on a production system. - Solid proficiency in TypeScript / Node.js and practical experience building and deploying services on cloud-native infrastructure. - Working experience with event-driven or asynchronous integration patterns and an understanding of why they matter in distributed systems. - Comfort using AI-assisted development tooling in day-to-day engineering work and a willingness to make it a core part of how you operate. - Familiarity with both document and relational database models, and the ability to write correct, efficient queries against each. - Foundational understanding of security and compliance practices — authentication, authorisation, secrets handling, and secure data storage. - Disciplined approach to testing — unit, integration, and E2E — with the habit of writing tests alongside code, not after. Preferred - Exposure to insurance or fintech — even as a user or in an adjacent role — and genuine curiosity to go deeper in the domain. - Some familiarity with compliance-aware development — HIPAA, SOC2, or PCI-DSS — and what it means in practice for a shipping product. - Experience working in a startup or scaling team where you have had to pick things up quickly and deliver without a lot of hand-holding. Benefits - Employees are eligible for an annual incentive bonus designed to reward for performance. - The salary range for this job in most geographic locations in the US is $115,000 to $138,000. - 33 days of paid time off for PTO, paid holidays, Days of Significance, and a Volunteer Day. - Paid parental leave eligible after 3 months of service. - Medical, Dental & Vision Insurance. - 401k with company match. - Profit Sharing & Savings Plan. - Short-term and long-term disability insurance. - Flexible spending account. - Life insurance. - Educational Assistance. - Associate Assistance Programs and more!
