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 Vestwell as an employer.

What you need

  • Comfortable writing TypeScript and React (classwork, bootcamp, internships, personal projects, or 0–2 years of professional experience)
  • Familiarity with HTML and CSS, and a willingness to follow an existing component library and design system
  • Some experience writing tests (Jest, React Testing Library, or similar) — or a clear desire to learn testing as part of the job
  • Comfortable using Git for everyday work (clone, branch, commit, pull request)
  • Ability to communicate clearly, ask for help, and follow through on feedback

Nice to have

  • Exposure to NestJS, Express, or another Node.js API framework
  • Experience with Material UI, React Query, or a similar component/data-fetching stack
  • Familiarity with Agile practice
  • Internship, co-op, or open-source experience on a team codebase
  • Interest in financial services or retirement products

What you get

  • Comprehensive health benefits
  • Generous time off
  • Dedicated Employee Wellbeing Committee
  • Hybrid work model
  • Access to collaborative offices in multiple locations
  • Competitive 401(k) plan

Worth weighing

  • No specific mention of the tech stack beyond React and TypeScript
  • Salary range may differ based on location
  • Role is entry-level with mentorship, which may limit immediate independence
