Job description

Health can’t wait. Not for symptoms to get worse. Not for a six‑month appointment. Not for a system to catch up. But that’s exactly how healthcare works today. You wait, until you can’t.

Alan exists to end the wait.

Health is a universal right, and we believe this right can only become real when it’s coupled with prevention. We need to stop treating health as something we repair and start treating it as something we build, every day. It’s not solely a question of willpower. It’s the healthcare system itself that needs to work for everyone, in a sustainable way.

So we are building the new standard in prevention insurance. Alan is the first company that integrates insurance, prevention, and care into a single, acclaimed user experience.

We are on an incredible journey to build a global leading company, with a unique culture. We already partner with 40K+ companies of all sizes, serving more than 1M+ members, and have reached €800M+ in ARR.

Prevention as the new norm. That's what we're building with our team of 800+ people. If it speaks to you: we're hiring across France, Spain, Belgium, and Canada. And beyond.

About

People joining Alan are always surprised and delighted by our innovative working method. We have a set of cultural values that guide our approach to work, such as:

What drives us - We're obsessed with helping members live healthier

• Mission is the Boss: long-term thinking, mission above all else
• Member & customer-led: obsessed with solving problems and delighting users

How we build excellence - We hire the best and empower them to succeed

• Champions of excellence: extremely high standards and talent density
• Distributed ownership: everyone owns their decisions and results
• Radically transparent: all information accessible, written-first, async decisions

How we grow together - We improve through honest feedback and bold thinking

• Optimistic alchemy: optimists who collaborate with genuine care
• Empathetic challengers: direct, caring feedback to help each other grow
• Bold contrarians: think differently, try new approaches

How we move fast — We fight complexity and focus on what matters

• Disciplined execution: decisive action with compounding focus
• Fight for simplicity: high-impact processes, smart frugality

The Product Platform Area

We enable product crews to move faster by providing reliable, reusable, and simple internal services. We encapsulate complexity, expose clear interfaces, and build mature, long‑term building blocks.

Scope

Our focus is on building reusable internal capabilities that power multiple product flows:

• Core Services: APIs & systems like Payment, Messaging, Document Processing, Pricing Engine
• Shared Platforms: Centralized services (e.g. AI Platform) with strong adoption across areas.
• Operational Tooling: Dashboards and automation that support reliability, observability, and scalability.
• Foundational User Experience - Ensure quality and consistency of the UX through shared layout systems, navigation, reusable UI components

Our role is to empower product teams, reducing their cognitive load.

Impact

• Your work will be used daily by hundreds of product builders across Alan.
• You’ll shape reusable building blocks that make it faster and safer to launch products across multiple countries.
• By improving adoption of our services, you’ll directly improve product velocity, consistency, and member experience.

Why this role is special

• High Leverage: Your work is multiplied across the entire company — adoption & reliability is our main KPIs.
• Complex Problems: Multi-country services, abstraction design, and adoption challenges.
• Platform Mindset: You’ll build services like a product, with product teams as your customers.
• Ownership: You’ll influence product direction, mentor engineers, and shape Alan’s internal platform for years to come.

You’ll work closely with product crews across all Alan areas, as well as with our Architecture Group and Tech Foundation Area, making sure our systems scale globally and align with long‑term technical strategy.

The Stack

Experience we value

• 3+ years in backend, platform, or infrastructure-oriented engineering roles
• Experience designing and maintaining internal services, APIs, or SDKs

• You simplify complexity with clear abstractions and long‑term ownership
• You are collaborative, humble, and motivated by enabling others
• You leverage AI to redefine our roles and unlock scalability
• Healthcare technology excites you
• You are fluent in English (no French required)

How we work

Location: You must be legally eligible to work in France, Belgium, or Spain.

Remote work: We offer remote work flexibility, but we value in-person collaboration.
