Job Description

About the Company

The Aspen Group (TAG) is one of the largest and most trusted retail healthcare business support organizations in the U.S., supporting over 16,000 healthcare professionals across 1,200+ health and wellness offices in 46 states. Our brands, including Aspen Dental, ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers, WellNow Urgent Care, Chapter Aesthetic Studio, and AZPetVet, benefit from TAGs comprehensive suite of centralized business support services designed to enhance growth and provide high-quality healthcare experiences at scale. Together, we aim to make healthcare smarter, better, and more accessible for everyone.

About the Role

To support our rapid growth and technological evolution, we are seeking a Lead Software Engineer to join our expanding IT team. Were hiring two Lead Software Engineers on our full-stack team: one who leans Front-End and one who leans Back-End. Youll own mission-critical services (RESTful APIs, data streaming, rules engines) across microservices, set technical standards, and mentor engineers while collaborating with product and data science. Youll also help integrate AI models into production software and keep our products secure and compliant.

Responsibilities

  • Lead API and data-streaming service development used across TAG brands.
  • Build and optimize systems for reusability, scalability, and maintainability; drive design patterns, code quality, and testing.
  • Mentor engineers; influence architecture & best practices (technical leadership without direct people management).
  • Partner with product & data science; participate in code reviews; stay current with emerging tech (including AI in software).

Qualifications

  • 10 years building large-scale software; ~5 years leading engineers/technical direction.

Required Skills

  • Strong in Python, Go, or C#; expert in REST; solid with GraphQL integrations.
  • Proficient with SQL (MySQL/PostgreSQL), cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure), CI/CD, and Kubernetes.
  • Experience integrating AI/ML models into software; security best practices/HIPAA awareness.
  • Front-End-leaning role: deep experience with a modern SPA framework (e.g., React/TypeScript) and design-system driven UI.
  • Back-End-leaning role: depth in distributed systems, data streaming, and service performance/observability. (Microservices & rules engines a plus.)

Preferred Skills

  • Healthcare tech exposure and HIPAA experience (bonus, not required).

Pay range and compensation package

Annual pay range: $167,000-$197,000. A generous benefits package that includes paid time off, health, dental, vision, and 401(k) savings plan with match.
