About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Evolent is seeking a Software Engineer to join an Agile team building healthcare‑focused backend software solutions that support analytics, integration, and operational workflows across the healthcare ecosystem.
In this role, you will design and develop scalable backend services using Python and FastAPI, and build event‑driven and serverless solutions leveraging Microsoft Azure services such as Azure Functions and Azure Event Hub.
You will also develop and maintain data ingestion pipelines that load healthcare data into Microsoft Fabric to support enterprise reporting and analytics needs.
Team members contribute across the full software development lifecycle and are expected to wear multiple hats.
You will participate in architecture and design discussions, author and review design documentation, and implement high‑quality, maintainable code.
You will collaborate closely with product owners, QA partners, and fellow software engineers in an Agile environment, contributing to sprint planning, stand‑ups, retrospectives, and iterative delivery.
As needed, you will assist with testing, debugging, and validation to ensure solutions meet quality, performance, and regulatory expectations.
The role includes modernizing and optimizing existing systems, including performance tuning legacy SQL stored procedures to improve efficiency and scalability.
You will use GitHub workflows to support CI/CD pipelines, code reviews, and automated quality checks, and write unit tests to improve code coverage and maintainability.
The ideal candidate is comfortable working in a fast‑paced healthcare technology environment, brings strong backend engineering fundamentals, and actively leverages Copilot and other AI‑assisted tools to solve complex problems and improve developer productivity.
