- Partner deeply with product, design, data, and clinical teams to shape solutions that improve member outcomes and business results.
- Build and evolve secure, well-tested, observable software across backend, frontend, and data surfaces.
- Use data, experimentation, and user feedback to validate whether shipped solutions are working, and drive iteration when they're not.

- Design and evolve systems that support safe, scalable, AI-augmented development
- Use data and experimentation to validate whether solutions actually work
- Collaborate cross-functionally to balance member impact, clinical constraints, and technical tradeoffs
