Our work is inspired by our members’ journeys and our actions are focused on impact and results.

The opportunity:

You will be joining a remote team of passionate engineers reporting into one of our engineering leaders.  In this role, you will work closely with engineering, product, design and customer reliability teams. Parsley Health is an outcome driven organization and your work will directly contribute to the company objectives:  expand the business nationally, improve activation, conversion, retention, and expansion of our healthcare products.

We work in a blameless environment and we take ownership and pride in our efforts. We like to work in small cross functional product pods where each pod owns the development lifecycle of their products. We follow agile development practices and encourage each pod to tailor the processes to their needs. Our teams are built on pillars of trust, humility and continuous improvement.

Our tech stack:

• GCP is our platform for all custom application development and services.
• Services are dockerized and scheduled by Kubernetes.
• gRPC is our common service language. GraphQL is provided for clients.
• Current languages of choice are Golang (new services) and Kotlin (legacy).
• Managed Postgres with Cloud SQL.
• Datadog handles our metrics, Sentry logs exceptions.
• GitHub actions is our CI/CD service.

What you'll do:

• Program new API features to support consumer-facing products

• Experience with typed languages such as Scala, Kotlin, Rust, Golang, Java.
