Oscar Health is seeking a Staff Software Engineer to join the Engineering team and lead the design and development of next-generation claims and payment processing systems. This is a hybrid role based in New York City (Hudson Square), with flexibility to work from Oscar's Tempe or Los Angeles offices if you live within commutable distance. You will be expected to come into the office at least two days per week.
In this role, you will work on a broad problem space spanning contract and pricing configuration, system extensibility through an internally developed domain-specific language (DSL), and data pipeline architecture and efficiency. You will selectively apply AI to solve hard problems, automating and improving processes that were previously tedious and error-prone. Your focus will be on building scalable and reliable systems that ensure the accuracy and efficiency of claims and payment processes.
You will report to the Director of Software Engineering and serve as a subject matter expert on business and technical domains. Key responsibilities include leading the planning, execution, and release of complex technical projects across multiple teams; owning medium to large features or infrastructure projects from technical design through completion; working with product managers and designers to solve challenging problems; and leading and mentoring engineers and engineering teams to improve technology and set overall team direction.
You will be responsible for ensuring your team's delivery of large or complex technology capabilities within their domain or spanning multiple domains. You will facilitate collaboration within the engineering team and its internal customers, actively mitigating risks on cross-team projects. You will work with leadership to influence prioritization of technical and product roadmaps, actively identify and reduce failure domains, and guide the development of Service-Level Objectives (SLOs) for systems your team is responsible for.
