Join to apply for the Senior Software Engineer role at Bluebird Kids Health

bird Kids Health is a dynamic organization that provides underserved communities with new access to value-based pediatric primary care. We are on a mission to provide exceptional care, so every child can thrive . We offer comprehensive, evidence-based primary and urgent care services to children and their families, with support around-the-clock. Our care model includes robust care coordination, chronic disease management, and other population health supports. Our success is measured by exceptional health outcomes, lower medical costs, an outstanding child and family experience, and a rewarding environment for our clinicians and staff.
Position Description
We’re hiring a full-stack Senior Software Engineer to help launch our engineering team—shaping not only our tech stack, but also our product vision, team culture, and development practices. You’ll build intuitive, reliable, and secure digital experiences that make it easier for families to care for their kids and for providers to deliver exceptional pediatric care. From mobile tools for parents to internal workflows for clinical teams to complex integrations with healthcare systems, your work will directly improve the lives of children across the country.
You’ll collaborate closely with product, design, and operations stakeholders, working across a modern stack that includes React, NextJS, TypeScript, Python, Django, and AWS. While you may lean front-end or back-end, you should feel confident navigating across the stack. This is a rare opportunity to join a mission-driven team at the ground level, contribute to something meaningful, and grow with us as we scale nationally.
We enjoy connecting in person! This is a hybrid role with a team that meets at least once monthly at our office in Needham, MA.
What You’ll Do

• Build delightful, secure, and responsive web and mobile apps for families
• Help define what we build—your input will influence priorities, UX, and technical direction
• Design and maintain internal tools that support providers and clinical staff
• Pioneer novel applications of generative AI to improve healthcare outcomes.
• Help establish engineering standards, workflows, testing practices, and documentation
• Write maintainable, tested, and well-documented code
• Integrate with healthcare data systems and APIs (e.g., FHIR, HIEs)
• Participate in sprint planning and Kanban flows
• Contribute to a collaborative and mission-driven engineering culture
  

What You’ll Need

• 5+ years of professional software engineering experience
• Professional experience building with ReactJS, Typescript, and Python-based web frameworks
• Familiarity with git, AWS, and CI/CD practices
• Experience working with APIs and data models, ideally in regulated environments
• Clear communication skills and strong collaboration habits
• Self-motivated, organized, and excited to help build a team and new products from the ground up
• Maintain U.S. residence and authorization to work in the United States without visa sponsorship
  

Bonus Points

• Strong product mindset, with a focus on solving the right problems for patients and providers
• Background working in early-stage startups or fast-paced environments
• Experience with healthcare data models and standards (FHIR, HL7, HIEs)
• Experience with developing a React Native mobile app
• Familiarity with pediatric or family health applications
  

What We Offer

• The opportunity to serve within a mission-driven pediatric care delivery organization.
• A competitive compensation package with performance incentives and, for some roles, equity participation.
• A collaborative and dynamic workplace with significant professional growth opportunities.
• A diverse and inclusive company culture that values every team member's contribution to our mission.
• Competitive medical, vision, and dental insurance products.
• Other programs including 401k matching, employee assistance, caregiver support, commuter benefits, flexible spending accounts, health savings accounts, short- and long-term disability benefits, and other exclusive employee benefits.
• Generous paid time off.
• An office in Needham, MA, right off I-95—complete with snacks, beverages, and friendly faces.
