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 https://alan.com/en/careers. 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 1000+ people. If it speaks to you: we're hiring across France, Spain, Belgium, and Canada. And beyond.

THE ENGINEERING TEAM

In our engineering team, we build the infrastructure, interfaces, and applications to provide first‑class service to our members, health professionals, and even ourselves!

Being an engineer at Alan means joining a team of talented, committed and passionate engineers, with a lot of interactions.

We move fast, with a lot of ownership, and are proud to tackle big problems!

Our process is very simple: those who make product decisions are the same ones who build them.

We are also the stewards of our members' most sensitive data, and building privacy in by design is core engineering work for us, not an afterthought.

THE STACK

Python/Flask, Typescript, React on the coding side. AWS, GCP, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, Redis, Terraform/Terramate, Datadog, Cloudflare, GitHub Actions on the platform side, all in a monorepo. We deploy daily and believe in distributed ownership - you build it, you own it.

THE TECH FOUNDATIONS AREA

Mission: Tech Foundations enables product crews and creates the environment to thrive—combining world-class infrastructure, intuitive developer experience, exquisite operational excellence, and built-in security to make shipping exceptional products effortless.

Scope

1. Infrastructure enablement for product crews (e.g. hosting improvements https://www.qovery.com/case-study/alan-case-study/, CI/CD https://medium.com/alan/moving-our-ci-cd-to-github-actions-40df3f7e4733, scalability, multi-cloud architecture)
2. Security and compliance facilitation (e.g. authentication, encryption, threat protection)
3. Developer productivity enhancements (e.g. local environment setup https://medium.com/alan/our-journey-from-react-native-to-expo-for-mobile-app-development-at-alan-%EF%B8%8F-3b1569e8ab7c, monorepo tooling https://medium.com/alan/building-debug-tooling-for-engineers-and-support-teams-alike-34cab315b9cc, observability, tech stack evolution, accessibility audits)
4. AI-assisted engineering enablement (e.g. agentic development, code assistants, MCP servers)

Focus for 2026

In 2026, we will grow the team significantly to further increase our impact. We want to expand our cloud footprint with a revisited multi‑cloud strategy as we expand internationally, while we’re elevating the quality bar, from infrastructure to code foundations (backend/frontend/mobile). We are also evolving our AI‑augmented development, by putting AI code assistants as a first‑class citizen for everyone, including non‑engineers. Ultimately we have massive ambitions around our Security stack and posture with enhanced tools and processes to protect our developers and users.
