Job Description

Job Description

Description

We are currently seeking a highly motivated Staff Software Engineer to deliver best-in-class technological expertise to improve patient outcomes, increase access to healthcare, and make the US healthcare system more efficient. With over a million managed lives across the country and terabytes of data generated, our software and applications need to be cutting-edge, efficient, and aligned with our core values of improving patient outcomes and empowering our providers.

Our Values:  

• Put Patients First  
• Empower Entrepreneurial Provider and Care Teams  
• Operate with Integrity & Excellence  
• Be Innovative  
• Work As One Team  

Why this role - and why Astrana  

 
Healthcare is nearly 20% of U.S. GDP , yet remains fragmented, inefficient, and misaligned. 

 
Astrana is building a new category: a technology-driven healthcare platform that sits across payers, providers, and care delivery - integrating clinical, claims, and operational data and enabling decisions based on total patient outcomes, not isolated transactions. Astrana is building the operating layer for healthcare delivery. 

 
This is not a concept. It is already working. Astrana today:  

• $3.2B in revenue in 2025, growing 56% year-over-year  
• 1.6M+ patients under management across a national platform

Why do this here vs somewhere else:  

• You are early, despite meaningful scale 

The platform is already large and growing quickly, but this capability is still being built - giving you outsized influence and career opportunity 

• You can actually change the system, not just analyze it  

Astrana operates under delegated risk, with real responsibility for cost and outcomes - so what you build can directly influence decisions and behavior.  

• There is immediate, real-world deployment at scale  

You are not building pilots or internal tools that may or may not be adopted. You are building into workflows used across a large and growing population.  

• The incentives are aligned with the problem  

Improving outcomes while reducing cost is the business model - making AI, automation, and coordination economically meaningful from day one.  

• You have executive backing and speed  

AI is a core priority with direct CEO sponsorship, enabling fast iteration from idea to production.  

• You are surrounded by strong builders  

Our team includes engineers and operators from leading tech companies (Google, Amazon, etc), top quantitative firms (Citadel, D.E. Shaw), and strong academic backgrounds.  

What You'll Do

• Design, test, deploy, improve, and maintain software that will be used internally at Astrana Health, and externally by physicians and patients  
• Work cross-functionally with an agile team including Product, UX/Design, Engineers, and QA to execute mission-critical projects  
• Suggest and drive improvement on all parts of the stack and internal development processes  
• Manage project requirements, priorities, and deliverable timelines effectively  
• Help mentor, coach, and develop junior members of our development team  
• Technology Stack: Python, React, Javascript, SQL  

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related, or related experience.  
• 8+ years relevant professional experience in software development  
• Experience building APIs and automation using modern backend technologies at scale  
• Experience in some of the following: full-stack web application development, developing and designing large software systems, web scraping and other automation scripting, ETL and data pipelines, data science, machine learning  
• Architecting, developing, and supporting applications and services  
• Can create template projects for other engineers to follow/use  
• Can lead the team in technical aspects  
• Assist in providing long-term vision for the engineering team as well as leadership of the team  
• Strong Knowledge of front-end technology such as React.js/Redux.  
• Strong knowledge of databases and ability to write complex and mission-critical SQL queries  
• Advanced proficiency with OOP languages such as Python  
• Strong general problem-solving and logical reasoning ability  

You're great for this role if:  

• Further education or experience in computer science, engineering, or related fields  
• Experience with DevOps: CI/CD, containerization, deployment, orchestration, and related (such as Git, Docker, Kubernetes.)  
• Designing/developing web, software, prototypes, or proofs of concepts (POCs.)  

Environmental Job Requirements and Working Conditions

• Our organization follows a hybrid work structure where the expectation is to work both in office and at home on a weekly basis. The office is located at 1600 Corporate Center Dr., Monterey Park, CA 91754.
• The total compensation target pay range for this role is: $180,000.00 - $210,000.00. The salary range represents our national target range for this role.
