About the role

  • We foster an environment of continuous learning and innovation in which engineers take ownership of quality across the full software development lifecycle.
  • At athenahealth, base pay depends on multiple factors, including job-related experience, relevant knowledge and skills, how your qualifications compare to others in similar roles, and geographical market rates.
  • Our company culture: Our talented employees - or athenistas, as we call ourselves - spark the innovation and passion needed to accomplish our vision.

Responsibilities

  • Our award-winning culture is built around shared values of inclusiveness, accountability, and support.
  • Design, develop, test, deploy, and support high-quality software as part of an agile, cross-functional product team.

  • Contribute to and help evolve team practices, including design reviews, feature readouts, agile ceremonies, code review standards, and testing strategy.
  • Critically evaluate, debug, and refine AI-generated code, tests, designs, and recommendations rather than accepting outputs at face value.
  • Mentor other engineers on effective engineering practices and the responsible use of AI tools, including prompt design, context management, output verification, and recognizing when an LLM-based tool should not be used.
  • Build and maintain automated unit, integration, and end-to-end tests as part of feature development.
