They’re complex. High-stakes. And actually worth solving.At VBA, our platform sits at the center of complex healthcare operations—processing data, powering integrations, and supporting critical workflows for our clients. The systems we build directly impact performance, accuracy, and outcomes across the healthcare experience.We’re evolving that platform — combining modern architecture, scalable services, and AI-driven capabilities to build what’s next.If you want to work on real systems, real scale, and real impact — keep reading.What’s Happening Inside Engineering at VBAWe’re not maintaining a legacy system.We’re actively evolving our platform — combining modern cloud architecture, strong engineering practices, and AI to build what’s next.Engineers here are working on:Expanding enterprise SaaS applications — real product development, not maintenanceAWS-native architecture (containers, serverless, scalable systems)AI-powered capabilities embedded into real workflowsEvent-driven and automation-first systemsInternal tooling that makes engineers more effectiveThis is platform evolution mode, not maintenance mode.The RoleThis is a senior individual contributor role focused on building and improving the core platform that powers VBA’s applications.You’ll design and develop scalable services, contribute to system design decisions, and help embed AI-driven capabilities into real workflows.This is not a ticket factory role — but it is a hands-on builder role. You’ll spend the majority of your time designing, developing, and delivering production systems while contributing to technical discussions within your team. Translation: You build critical platform components — and what you build becomes the foundation others rely on.Who You AreYou’re a strong engineer — the kind of developer other engineers trust.You take ownership, solve meaningful problems, and deliver high-quality systems.You enjoy building scalable services, improving performance, and working on real-world platform challenges.You’re curious about AI and modern technologies, and you look for practical ways to apply them to real engineering problems.You raise the bar through execution, not authority. If you’re already using AI to build faster, automate smarter, and rethink how software gets built—you’ll feel right at home here. 👉 To be considered for this position, all applicants must complete the Wonderlic
