Job description

We are looking for a Lead Software Engineer IV to focus on EverHealth’s revenue cycle management (RCM) platform. RCM is at the heart of how our customers get paid, and we are building a new generation of RCM tools that pair modern workflow software with AI agents to help billing teams work smarter, resolve issues faster, and collect more of what they’ve earned. This work is part of our broader focus on finding where automation, AI, and new experiences can make the biggest impact across the EverHealth portfolio.

As a Lead Software Engineer IV, you will be one of the hands-on technical leads on a small, nimble team building an AI-enabled RCM task-management platform end to end. Our initial focus spans the front-end task-driven user experience, the backend services and event-driven workflows behind it, the API layer that translates between our platform and the systems it connects to, and the code that invokes and coordinates AI agents working alongside our users.

This is a product engineering role. The right person cares as much about the problem as the technology: understanding how billing teams actually work, spending time with end users and business leaders in conjunction with our product and design partners, and shipping outcomes that measurably improve their day. You will help set technical direction, ship a lot of code, and raise the bar for the engineers around you, using AI throughout the development lifecycle to move quickly without cutting corners.

As the platform matures, the scope will grow with it, and you will have the opportunity to help shape where automation, AI, and new experiences can deliver the most value across our products.

Responsibilities:

  • Lead the design and delivery of a full-stack RCM worklist platform, from the user interface through backend services, APIs, and the data model

  • Build and evolve event-driven services and workflows that route, prioritize, and track work across people and AI agents

  • Design and maintain the API and translation layer that connects the platform with EverHealth products, our clearinghouse, and third-party systems

  • Build the application code that invokes, coordinates, and monitors AI agents, including guardrails, human review steps, and observability

  • Own data modeling and schema design, writing performant SQL and making effective use of ORMs

  • Partner directly with end users, product, operations, and business leaders to understand workflows, define problems, and measure outcomes

  • Share ownership of technical direction and engineering standards, and mentor engineers through code review, pairing, and design discussions

  • Champion AI-assisted development across planning, design, coding, testing, review, and operations

  • Build secure, reliable, HIPAA-compliant software backed by strong testing, monitoring, and operational practices

  • Help identify and evaluate new opportunities for automation, AI, and new experiences across the EverHealth portfolio, Leads complex, multi-workstream product initiatives as a principal Product Owner. Owns product vision, strategy, backlog integrity, prioritization, and Scrum team alignment. Coordinates Product, Engineering, Design, Delivery, and other stakeholders; improves execution discipline, transparency, and outcome tracking. Stabilizes programs with fragmented ownership or elevated delivery risk while ensuring customer and business requirements are addressed. Requires substantial Product Owner or Senior Product Manager experience, preferably in payments or financial services., Leads revenue recognition, billing, accounts receivable, collections, audit readiness, and financial controls. Owns ASC 606 compliance, billing systems, process automation, AI-enabled accounting improvements, reporting, and cross-functional alignment. Manages and mentors the accounting team while supporting scalable revenue operations and public-company readiness.
