Build and maintain IDRE, a healthcare payment dispute platform, across frontend and backend systems. Own transaction logic for disputed claims, settlement calculations, and payment records. Develop with React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, Python, and AWS; improve services, observability, and CI/CD. Ensure HIPAA-grade handling of sensitive data, clarify ambiguous requirements, and deliver features end-to-end in a fast-paced startup environment.
The Role
IDRE is VeraTru's platform supporting the Independent Dispute Resolution process for healthcare payments. You'll join IDRE as a hands-on senior fullstack engineer and own your work end-to-end. This is a builder role, not an architect role. We want senior engineers who live in the code and own their product area, not people who design from a distance. You're comfortable in ambiguity, you're a fast-learning generalist, and you drive your work to done.
Responsibilities- Build & Ship — Own features end-to-end — frontend (React/Next.js, TypeScript) and backend (Node.js/TypeScript, Python) on AWS.
- Own the Transaction Layer — Build and maintain the logic that handles disputed-claim transactions, settlement calculations, and payment records tied to arbitration outcomes.
- Improve What You Own — Refactor toward maintainable services, add observability (CloudWatch + Grafana), and strengthen CI/CD within your product.
- Quality & Compliance — Uphold PII and HIPAA-grade standards for sensitive health and financial/transactional data.
- Ownership in Ambiguity — Break down loosely-defined work, clarify with your lead, and ship without waiting for a perfect ticket.
- Demonstrated Senior Capability — 5+ years building production-scale web apps. We prioritize demonstrated technical capability and ownership over raw years.
- Fullstack Core — Strong with React/Next.js + TypeScript and Node.js/TypeScript + Python, comfortable across the whole stack.
- Generalist & Fast Learner — You pick up new domains, codebases, and tools quickly and thrive as a hands-on generalist.
- Cloud & Reliability — AWS (S3, CloudWatch), observability, and CI/CD.
- AI-Forward — Comfortable working with AI tools as part of an agentic SDLC (spec/requirement breakdown, test generation, AI-assisted coding).
- Startup Experience — Proven track record thriving in fast-paced, ambiguous startup environments.
- US-Based — Must be based in and authorized to work in the United States.
- AI / LLM — Hands-on experience integrating LLMs into products (document processing, embeddings, provider abstraction).
- Domain Exposure — Payments/transactions, fintech, or healthcare claims/billing systems (HL7/FHIR) is a strong plus given IDRE's settlement-transaction core.
- Real Ownership — Deep, hands-on ownership of a real product in a meaningful industry.
- Modern Stack — React/Next.js, Node, Python, AWS, and production AI — with Go on the horizon.
- Meaningful Purpose — Your work helps resolve healthcare disputes fairly and transparently.
- High Autonomy — Fully remote, ownership over micromanagement.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene
Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
