Description For Staff Software Engineer

Oscar Health, the pioneering health insurance company founded in 2012, is seeking a Staff Software Engineer to join their Engineering team. This role offers a competitive salary range of $192,000 - $252,000 and combines technical leadership with hands-on development work.

The position focuses on enhancing next-generation claims and payment processing systems, working with contract and pricing configuration, system extensibility through internally developed DSL, and data pipeline architecture. You'll be applying AI to automate complex processes and building scalable, reliable systems that ensure accurate claims and payment processing.

As a Staff Engineer, you'll serve as a technical subject matter expert, leading complex projects across multiple teams while mentoring other engineers. The role requires strong leadership skills with 7+ years of professional software engineering experience and proven expertise in leading technical initiatives.

The company offers a flexible work environment with remote options, though regular office presence is expected for those near New York City, Tempe, or Los Angeles locations. Oscar Health provides comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage, unlimited vacation, equity grants, and performance bonuses.

This is an opportunity to make a significant impact at a technology-driven healthcare company that's revolutionizing the insurance industry. You'll work with cross-functional teams, influence technical direction, and help build systems that directly improve healthcare delivery and member experience.

The ideal candidate will have extensive experience in software engineering leadership, system architecture, and a track record of delivering complex technical projects. You'll need strong communication skills to work effectively with partners, product managers, and designers while fostering a collaborative engineering culture.
