You. Better. With Alan.

Alan is building a vertically integrated health partner that unites insurance and smart healthcare delivery into one seamless system. Our vision is to make prevention the new norm of care for all.

Our mission: Help people live in good health to 100 while helping employers feel proud, turning health benefits from a cost centre into their most valuable investment.

By connecting all aspects of care (private, public, and direct to consumer) we create the most member‑centric healthcare experience, reducing claims costs while generating new monetization opportunities.

We partner with tens of thousands of companies across France, Spain, Belgium, and Canada, serving over a million members.

How we work: our Leadership Principles

• Mission is the Boss — We think long‑term and are methodical optimists who take risks, seeking our mission's success above all else.
• Distributed Ownership — Accountable enlightened despots: everyone owns their decisions and results.
• Radical Transparency — All information is accessible and written‑first, so everyone can make the best decisions asynchronously.
• Always Growing — Direct, positive, and caring feedback, combined with self‑growth ownership.

As a Software Engineer on this team, you will:

• Engineer our employee affiliation engine: reliably process thousands of lifecycle events daily.
• Simplify payroll and billing: craft tools that HR teams love.
• Build seamless integrations: connect with platforms like Payfit and Workday so things “just work.”
• Automate workflows at scale: adapt solutions to companies of all sizes across multiple countries.
• Make billing delightful: ensure invoices are accurate, reliable, and easy to manage.
• Collaborate across teams: partner with product, design, and ops to deliver a unified experience.

Why this role is special:

• Work on mission‑critical systems powering Alan’s growth and renewals.
• Impact hundreds of thousands of lives, making it simple for companies to use Alan.
• Solve complex business and technical puzzles, while maintaining our “uncompromising simplicity” principle.
• Shape product direction and experience, not just ship code.
• Join a team obsessed with engineering excellence and continuous learning.

Your playground

• Stack: Python/Flask, React, React Native, PostgreSQL.
• What you’ll do: ship solutions that handle high complexity and scale across multiple countries, collaborating closely with product and design teams.
• Impact: your work touches core business operations and enables hundreds of thousands of employees to benefit from Alan every day.

Who we’re looking for

• We are looking for software engineers of all experience levels, ideally with backend and full‑stack experience.
• Comfortable digging into complex business logic, especially around insurance and payroll.
• Passionate about turning complex processes into simple, elegant solutions.
• Experienced in building scalable systems that handle real‑world complexity.
• B2B experience is a plus.
• Well‑versed in OOP languages (Python, Java, C#) and excited about modern web technologies (JavaScript).
• Fluent in English (French is a plus but not required).
• Curious, self‑starting, humble, collaborative, and eager to grow.

Perks & Benefits

• Fair rewards & equity packages.
• Flexible office & remote options.
• Top‑tier equipment: MacBook Pro, monitor, noise‑canceling headphones.
• Flexible vacation & hours.
• Comprehensive healthcare for you, children, and partners.
• Transport support and coaching for personal growth.
• Training budget for conferences, courses, books.
• Extended parental leave for all parents.

Recruitment note

• You may ultimately join the part of the engineering organization where you can have the most impact.
• We hire people, not roles. Don’t worry if you don’t check every box — high potential and curiosity matter most.
