## Description

As a Sr Software Engineer at Optum Rx, you will join an innovative engineering team responsible for building and maintaining Rx microproducts-portable UI packages deployed across both member-facing and agent-facing applications. In this role, you will bridge the gap between web and mobile platforms using a unified JavaScript and TypeScript ecosystem based on React and React Native. You will translate complex designs into pixel-perfect, highly reusable components, architect scalable state management solutions, integrate backend services, and leverage AI capabilities and enterprise automation tools to optimize workflows and deliver digital pharmacy microproducts.
You'll enjoy the flexibility to work remotely * from anywhere within the U.S. as you take on some tough challenges. For all hires in the Minneapolis or Washington, D.C. area, you will be required to work in the office a minimum of four days per week.
Primary Responsibilities:

 * Design, develop, and maintain portable Rx microproduct UI packages that seamlessly integrate into both member-facing and agent-facing applications
 * Design, develop, and deploy AI-powered solutions and intelligent component architectures to address complex pharmacy and healthcare technology challenges with an emphasis on responsible AI usage
 * Leverage enterprise-approved AI tools and automation frameworks to streamline development workflows, optimize code generation, and drive continuous software delivery improvements
 * Translate Figma and Adobe XD wireframes into pixel-perfect, clean, reusable, and maintainable components using React for web and React Native for mobile applications
 * Utilize Material-UI (MUI) and modern UI toolkits to construct, scale, and maintain dynamic multi-theme systems across member and agent applications
 * Build and manage complex application state, user flows, data persistence, and caching mechanisms using Redux or React Context API
 * Connect front-end user interfaces to backend microservices, cloud databases, and third-party APIs using RESTful services and GraphQL
 * Optimize application performance across environments by minimizing web bundle sizes, tuning Virtual DOM rendering, ensuring smooth 60fps mobile animations, and debugging memory leaks
 * Write automated unit and integration tests using Jest, Detox, and Playwright to maintain high codebase stability and quality across microproduct packages
 * Manage cross-environment deployment pipelines and mobile app publishing workflows through Apple App Store Connect, Google Play Console, and Expo Application Services (EAS)
 * Evaluate emerging technology trends and modern AI tools to inform solution design, application architecture, and strategic team innovation

You'll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.
