Job description

Huron helps its clients drive growth, enhance performance and sustain leadership in the markets they serve. We help healthcare organizations build innovation capabilities and accelerate key growth initiatives, enabling organizations to own the future, instead of being disrupted by it. Together, we empower clients to create sustainable growth, optimize internal processes and deliver better consumer outcomes.

Health systems, hospitals and medical clinics are under immense pressure to improve clinical outcomes and reduce the cost of providing patient care. Investing in new partnerships, clinical services and technology is not enough to create meaningful and substantive change. To succeed long-term, healthcare organizations must empower leaders, clinicians, employees, affiliates and communities to build cultures that foster innovation to achieve the best outcomes for patients.

Joining the Huron team means you’ll help our clients evolve and adapt to the rapidly changing healthcare environment and optimize existing business operations, improve clinical outcomes, create a more consumer‑centric healthcare experience, and drive physician, patient and employee engagement across the enterprise.

Join our team as the expert you are now and create your future.

As a Lead Software Engineer, you will play a key role in designing, developing, and optimizing our SaaS products. You will be responsible for writing clean, efficient, and maintainable code while ensuring the performance, scalability, and reliability of our applications. You will collaborate closely with backend, frontend, and database teams to deliver high‑quality solutions that meet business needs and provide an excellent user experience.

This role requires strong expertise in .NET Core APIs, Angular UI, and database optimization to build performant and user‑friendly applications.

Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and maintain clean, efficient, and performant code following best practices.
• Collaborate with backend, frontend, and database teams to ensure end‑to‑end system performance and scalability.
• Work on .NET Core APIs, integrating them seamlessly with Angular UI and optimized database queries.
• Optimize application performance by identifying bottlenecks in API response times, Angular rendering, and database queries.
• Conduct code reviews to enforce coding standards, maintainability, and performance best practices.
• Partner with QA and DevOps teams to ensure smooth deployments, monitoring, and production stability.
• Participate in performance tuning, profiling, and debugging of distributed systems.
• Write unit tests and integration tests to ensure reliability and maintainability of the codebase.
• Proactively identify opportunities for refactoring, automation, and system improvements.
• Contribute to system design discussions, ensuring scalability, cost‑efficiency, and resilience are factored into solutions.

Qualifications

• 8+ years of experience in software development with focus on writing clean, efficient, and maintainable code.
• Strong hands‑on experience with .NET Core (Web APIs) and Angular (UI development).
• Solid understanding of SQL and database optimization techniques (query tuning, indexing, caching).
• Experience in performance optimization across backend APIs, frontend rendering, and databases.
• Knowledge of scalable SaaS applications, distributed systems, or multi‑tenant solutions is a plus.
• Familiarity with cloud environments (AWS or Azure), CI/CD pipelines, and containerization (Docker/Kubernetes).
• Strong debugging and problem‑solving skills with ability to diagnose performance bottlenecks in production.
• Excellent collaboration and communication skills, with the ability to work effectively in cross‑functional, distributed teams.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or equivalent practical experience.
