Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of Take Command Health as an employer.

What you need

  • Significant experience building and operating production financial systems
  • Hands-on experience with ledgers, payment systems, card payments, banking integrations, reimbursements, or similar money movement infrastructure
  • Strong backend engineering experience, ideally with Java or a similar language
  • Strong relational database experience, especially with data models that require accuracy, traceability, and long-term maintainability
  • Ability to lead through technical judgment, clear communication, mentorship, and execution
  • Comfort working through ambiguous product and technical problems

What you get

  • $165,000 - $235,000 + 15% bonus
  • Generously funded ICHRA for medical, dental, and vision premiums and medical expenses
  • Unlimited personal vacation in addition to regular company holidays
  • 401(k): 90-day eligibility for 4% match that vests over 4 years with a one year cliff
  • Competitive parental leave for new parents
  • Up to two paid days of Paw-ternity leave

Worth weighing

  • The role is full-stack but heavily backend-leaning, which may not appeal to those looking for more frontend work.
  • No mention of specific technologies beyond Java, Postgres, and AWS, which may limit exposure to newer technologies.
  • The position does not require people management but offers the opportunity, which may not suit those seeking a strictly managerial role.
