Original posting

Collective Health, ( http://collectivehealth.com/#careers ), San Mateo, CA (Full time, on-site only) We're a startup looking to replace health insurance with a system where incentives are aligned for the benefit of both employees as well as employers. In the long term, we think we can bend the cost of health care across the country. Or in another way of saying it, we can lower both the first and second derivative of the rising health care cost curve, nationwide. We've got some compelling evidence for it as well if you'd like to chat. Our tech stack is an SOA/microservices mix of Go and Java with an Angular front end. We're strong believers in transparency, trust and balance. We believe good code is easy to read and should have a short "time to understanding". We also believe that shipping is important and there are appropriate times to leverage technical debt. Some of our company-wide values are transparency and a superior customer experience, from the way we design our products and over-indexing on customer support. Our eng team is around 9 and we're well funded, but still just a year old, so early enough for non-trivial equity. We've got a ton of interesting problems to solve. We expect all of our engineers to teach as well as learn. We're looking for experienced SW engineers up and down the stack, front end, back end, data, dev ops, test, generalist, etc. Full list of available positions: https://jobs.lever.co/collectivehealth We're super proud of the company mission, engineering culture and tech stack we've put together and would love a chance to explain it all in detail!
