Job description

The federal government spends over $700 billion a year hiring private companies to do critical work, from staffing veterans’ hospitals and maintaining military bases to supporting federal logistics and IT. Many of those contracts legally require employers to set aside money for employee benefits, earned hour by hour. Today most of that is managed through spreadsheets, disconnected vendors, and compliance rules that are nearly impossible to navigate — so employers overspend and risk audits, and workers end up with benefits they can’t use or never fully access.

CVRD is building the modern infrastructure for this market. Our platform helps employers track benefit dollars in real time, stay compliant, and manage healthcare, retirement, payroll, and reporting in one place, turning a complex, high-stakes system into software that actually works.

The role

We're looking for a Senior Software Engineer to join our growing engineering team. This is a hands‑on role focused on building, improving and scaling our platform.

Experience in payroll, employee benefits, HRIS or similar business‑critical software is highly desirable. If you've built complex SaaS products with challenging workflows, compliance requirements or business logic, we'd love to hear from you.

What you'll do

• Build new product features across our platform
• Improve the performance, reliability and scalability of existing systems
• Collaborate with Product to refine technical solutions
• Contribute to architecture and technical design discussions
• Write clean, well‑tested, maintainable code
• Participate in code reviews and help raise engineering standards
• Identify and solve technical problems before they become customer problems
• Help improve our automated testing and deployment processes

This is a hands‑on engineering role. You’ll spend most of your time building software that delivers real customer value.

What you bring

• 7+ years of commercial software engineering experience
• Claude Code/Codex/or similar evangelist. You need to be able to manage it for optimum output efficiency and accuracy.
• Experience working with end‑to‑end (E2E) testing frameworks e.g. Playwright
• Experience building scalable web applications
• Strong API design and integration experience
• Excellent debugging and problem‑solving skills
• Comfortable working in a fast‑moving startup environment

We believe that domain expertise is vital to getting the most out of coding agents. Experience in one or more of:

• Payroll
• Employee benefits
• HRIS
• Financial software
• Enterprise workflow systems

We strongly prefer candidates with payroll/employee benefits experience.

Why this role is interesting

• Small, ambitious engineering team with real ownership
• High trust and minimal bureaucracy
• Work closely with experienced engineering and product leaders
• Build software that directly impacts customers
• Help shape the future of a fast‑growing health technology company
