Description For Senior Software Engineer

Beam Benefits, founded in 2012 by three engineers, is revolutionizing the employee benefits industry through technology. As a Senior Software Engineer at Beam, you'll join a company that's modernizing the $100+ billion ancillary benefits industry with their innovative dental insurance product and comprehensive benefits solutions.

The role offers an exciting opportunity to work on user-focused projects in an agile environment, with exposure to diverse technologies across their broad product portfolio. You'll be shipping code regularly while serving as a mentor to fellow engineers and contributing to development and product processes.

The ideal candidate brings strong technical expertise with 5+ years of experience, particularly in Ruby on Rails and React/TypeScript development. You'll work closely with Product, Design, and other Software Engineers to own and rapidly iterate on projects. The position requires both technical excellence and leadership qualities, as you'll be expected to mentor team members and contribute to architectural decisions.

What makes this role unique is the combination of technical challenges in a rapidly-growing insurtech company and the opportunity to improve how people access employee benefits. You'll be working in a complex business environment, handling multiple insurance product lines while collaborating with a diverse team of experts.

The compensation package is highly competitive, ranging from $115,200 to $184,200, complemented by performance bonuses, comprehensive benefits including health/dental/vision insurance, 401(k) matching, flexible time off, and equity participation. This is an excellent opportunity for a senior engineer who wants to make a significant impact while working with modern technologies in a meaningful industry.
