The role
Step into a senior engineering role where REST API and Emotional Intelligence drive everything we build at Anthem. If 7 years of Python sits behind you, Anthem offers $81,000 - $121,000, a contract setup, and a ladder worth climbing.
Key Responsibilities
- Ship the Stakeholder Management values-led rewrite that pays down years of Anthem technical debt
- Wrangle Stakeholder Management config across environments so Columbia staging mirrors production
- Troubleshoot and resolve production incidents across Python-based applications
- Own the customer-centric Stakeholder Management subsystem that the rest of Anthem quietly depends on
- Develop and maintain RESTful APIs powering core Anthem products
- Investigate, diagnose, and fix bugs reported by users and monitoring tools
- Write the REST API integration tests that catch regressions before Columbia, SC ships them
What You'll Bring
- Self-direction that survives a quiet Slack channel
- Proven track record delivering results as a senior Blockchain Developer
- Solid Microservices grounding, plus gRPC you can pick up on the fly
- Comfort being measured against a clear senior bar
- The integrity to flag your own mistakes first
Anthem doesn't sell technology so much as guarantee it, a fast-moving distinction the Columbia, SC team takes personally. Mistakes get dissected for lessons at Anthem, never weaponized in your next review.
For your Stakeholder Management and 7 of grit, we offer $81,000 - $121,000, mentorship, benefits, and the flexibility to do Columbia on your terms.
Fresh as of this morning, Anthem marked the senior seat available.
We're looking for the person who reads technology job posts and thinks I could fix that.
