Senior Backend Engineer: Data-Driven Workflows (Remote)

Socket.dev; United States; Hybrid; USD 140,000 - 190,000; Full time

Job summary

Pivotal Health is seeking a Senior Software Engineer to join our Case Execution team. You will own backend development across eligibility, batching, submissions, ops workflows, and claim orchestration—systems that drive how cases move through our platform to resolution.

You'll tackle complex, data-heavy decision logic and contribute to workflow orchestration, collaborating with the Integrations, Case Strategy, and product teams. Strong backend focus and Python experience are essential.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of software engineering experience with a strong backend focus.
• Strong engineering fundamentals with hands-on experience building data-heavy, workflow-oriented systems.
• Experience working on complex, data-driven decision logic or orchestration problems: you're comfortable with systems where correctness and sequencing both matter
• Comfortable operating in a collaborative, fast-moving startup environment where ownership and requirements evolve
• Python experience; able to work effectively in a Python-based backend environment
• Self-directed and proactive: you identify problems and drive them to resolution without heavy oversight
• Strong communicator who collaborates well across engineering, product, and adjacent teams

Responsibilities

• Build and improve core case execution systems: Own backend development across eligibility, batching, submissions, ops workflows, and claim orchestration.
• Tackle complex, data-driven backend problems: Work through the decision logic and data-heavy workflows that make eligibility and batching hard, understanding not just how individual systems work, but how they interact across the broader platform.
• Contribute to workflow orchestration: Build and improve the systems that coordinate how cases are staged, routed, and executed end to end, with a clear eye toward correctness and reliability.
• Collaborate cross-functionally: Work closely with the Integrations team, Case Strategy team, and other engineering and product partners to ensure systems are well-connected and aligned with how the broader platform operates.
• Contribute to front-end and admin workflows where needed: The role is primarily backend-focused, but you'll contribute to internal-facing UI and ops tooling where the product requires it.
