The Role

The Software Engineer (Backend) will design and maintain scalable backend services, contribute to technical decisions, mentor engineers, and ensure system performance in healthcare software.

Summary Generated by Built In

We were tired of hearing that healthcare is broken, so we decided to do something about it. At Nomi Health, we believe the care itself isn’t broken — it’s the business of healthcare that gets in the way. Every year, more than $1 trillion is wasted on paperwork, delays, and middle layers that drive up costs and keep people from the care they need.

We’re rebuilding the system so it works the way it should: clear prices you can trust, faster payments that keep providers focused on patients, and data that helps employers make better decisions. Our work has already touched more than 30 million lives — from local communities in Michigan to some of the largest companies in the country.

We are looking for a Software Engineer (Backend) to help us modernize the healthcare system through intelligent, scalable software. You will work with technologies like Golang, GraphQL, AWS Lambda, and Serverless to build platforms that power healthcare payments, operations, and real-time data exchange.

How You Will Make an Impact

Design, build, and maintain scalable backend services using Go and modern cloud-native tooling.
Partner closely with product, engineering, and architecture teams to deliver features end-to-end.
Own technical decisions: evaluate new tools, propose architectural improvements, and guide system evolution.
Ensure system reliability, observability, and performance across distributed environments.
Mentor engineers, contribute to coding standards, and help elevate overall engineering excellence.
Work with AWS services (Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB/RDS, ECS/EKS) and containerization tools like Docker and Kubernetes.

What We're Looking For

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field preferred (or equivalent experience).
6 years of software development with expertise in Go, Java, or C++.
Hands-on AWS experience and strong understanding of distributed, serverless, or event-driven architectures.
Strong background in designing APIs, working with SQL/NoSQL databases, and building production-grade systems.
Ownership-driven, collaborative, curious, and eager to learn and adopt new technologies.

Nomi Health delivers disruptive healthcare solutions, in partnership with like-minded employers, public sector organizations, advisors (brokers/consultants), and payers/TPAs. We’re a team of 300+ people who show up every day with the same mindset: don’t settle for “that’s just how it is.” Real change happens when you challenge the system, cut through the excuses, and build something better together.
