ABOUT ALIVIA ANALYTICS
Alivia Analytics is a healthcare technology company serving commercial and government payers in the fraud, waste, and abuse space. Our platform delivers payment integrity outcomes for approximately two dozen payer customers. We are a private equity-backed SaaS business in a growth phase, which means the work is close to the customer and the impact of any single engineer is visible.

This role exists because we are moving platform maintenance and support work onshore. Two products—a case management application and an FWA detection application—carry real customer commitments and were built quickly by people who have since moved on. We are building an onshore team that can fix things properly, once, for every customer. You would be one of the first two engineers hired into that team.

THE ROLE
This is maintenance and support engineering on a mature platform, and we would rather be straightforward about that now than have you find out later. You will not be developing a new product from scratch. You will work across Java, Angular, and SQL to keep two products healthy for paying customers, deliver contractually committed features, and steadily bring a fragmented code base toward a shared build.

The work arrives in small pieces. Most tasks are two-hour to two-day jobs rather than two-week solo builds, and you will move between customers and products within the same week. As more of the platform transitions to Python over time, there will be opportunities to work on that for engineers who are interested.

Requirements

• 5+ years of hands-on software engineering experience, including production Java
• Object-oriented Java in a deployed enterprise application, including J2EE-era patterns
• REST APIs and single-page applications—both developed and consumed
• SQL fluency: writing queries, working with data structures, and migrating data between environments (you do not need to be a DBA; we have DBAs)
• Experience with enterprise or SaaS products deployed to multiple external customers
• Experience adhering to enforced team standards in a code-review-gated environment
• Authorized to work in the United States and available during US business hours

Nice To Haves

• Tomcat or comparable application server configuration
• Front-end capability in addition to backend work: modern framework plus TypeScript or JavaScript (we use Angular)
• Azure environment setup and deployment
• Snowflake
• CVE and security patch management
• Comfortable with AI-assisted development tools
• JSP exposure—useful context, but not a requirement for this role.

Responsibilities

• Bug fixes, triage, and product support across both products, working from a single shared code base rather than customer-specific branches
• Contractually committed feature work and module refactors, including performance improvements on aging integrations
• Deployments alongside our SecOps team, including customer environment setup and upgrades
• Security and vulnerability remediation within contractual timelines
• SQL and data work across customer environments: queries, data structures, and migrating data between environments
• Participation in code review—both having your work reviewed and reviewing the work of others
• After ramp-up, improving how configuration, properties, and user-defined fields are handled in the legacy platform

Benefits

• We believe in putting the right people in the right seats, regardless of background, and we’re always looking for individuals who bring fresh thinking, grit, and a drive to make a difference.
