About Take Command
Take Command is a start-up on a mission to improve the healthcare system, starting with health insurance. Pragmatically speaking, we help employers reimburse employees for individual insurance instead of offering a traditional one-size-fits-all group plan. We believe this model can empower employees (when they have the right support) to be savvy healthcare consumers and have a transformative impact on the entire healthcare system.
Let’s be honest—health insurance is usually a confusing, frustrating, and even emotional experience for people. We want to fix that with a new model, great technology, and a superior user experience. We have made a great start, but we need your help to fully realize our long-term vision.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer who can independently build meaningful product and platform capabilities across Take Command. You’ll be assigned to one of our product squads based on company needs, your experience, and your interests. Our squads work across areas like insurance shopping, benefits administration, money movement, reimbursement workflows, operational tools, and the platform services behind them.
This is a backend-leaning full-stack role. Technologies used include Java, Postgres, AWS, React, and TypeScript. Our backend is primarily Java today, and we value engineers who can help us evolve the stack thoughtfully over time.
As a senior individual contributor, you’ll be expected to own meaningful work end to end, make strong technical decisions, and contribute to product and technical direction within your team.

More About Us
We secured our Series B funding in 2023 and are thrilled to be able to expand our team. Despite being a small startup in a land of health insurance giants, we’re the recognized industry leader for what we do (health insurance reimbursements) and passionate about bringing it to market because we know we can help fix a broken system and improve our clients’ wellbeing and health outcomes. We’ve been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Dallas Morning News, and other national healthcare publications and are excited about our growth opportunities.
Take Command knows diversity and inclusion among our teammates is integral to our company’s success and growth. Our vision is to recruit, develop, and retain the best team from a diverse candidate pool. This has mostly been about us, but we’d love to hear from you--we can’t wait to hear your story!
*Take Command is an equal opportunity employer! We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
