Job description

About Employee Navigator

Employee Navigator is a fast-growing, profitable SaaS company that partners with leading insurance carriers, payroll providers, and insurance brokers to help make managing employee benefits and HR a whole lot easier. Our platform simplifies the day‑to‑day work behind benefits administration, employee onboarding, and other HR tasks. As the leading broker‑focused platform we serve more than 180,000 companies and over 14 million employees around the country. We’re also honored to have been named a Washington Post Top Workplace for six consecutive years.

About the Role

Our day‑to‑day work is in C# on .NET Core with MVC and Vue.js at the front‑end. We develop software ranging from simple data‑capture forms to Roslyn‑based C# class to REST API generators to custom patterns handling our enrollment engine. We believe the best part of development is planning out code and discussing it with peers before writing it. Micro‑ORM, dynamic SQL, or stored procedures are used depending on the best option. We like generics, functional techniques, and code that is easy to read.

Our mid‑level engineers focus on handling loosely defined features and devising the proper implementation. Senior engineers solve problems, define features, and coordinate implementation with other engineers. We use a Kanban process so that pace is driven by the task definition rather than an arbitrary time frame. We look for engineers who can make good decisions and find creative solutions. We work closely with our product owners—and even executives—to make sure features are understood and the right problems are being solved.

You’ll work within a team to handle features within a product area. The team will help plan features and system designs, which are reviewed and discussed before coding.

Our products have diverse requirements and challenges, from user‑experience focused to message‑handling to data‑intensive. Each team tackles a variety of challenges that usually require interesting code, good planning, and good discussion.

Location: This is an onsite role working out of either our Bethesda, MD or Salt Lake City, UT office on a hybrid schedule.

Here’s What You’ll Do Day‑to‑Day

• Plan code and design features
• Review teammates’ code
• Build and maintain products with real‑world usage
• Rapidly iterate and roll out new code—ship features as soon as they’re complete
• Design code and systems for scalability
• Collaborate with DevOps Engineers to improve tooling and pipelines
• Collaborate with Front‑End Engineers to advance UI widgets
• Design web service APIs

Minimum Qualifications

• Undergraduate degree required
• 5+ years of professional experience, preferably full‑stack development
• Proven in‑depth knowledge of C#
• Strong attention to detail
• Experience with Vue.js is a plus; knowledge of JavaScript is required

Salary Range: $80,000 – $180,000 per year

We offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to support our employees’ professional growth and personal well‑being. Benefits include paid time off, volunteer time off, 401(k) with company match, medical, dental, and vision insurance, disability coverage, educational reimbursements, and paid parental leave.
