Software Engineer - Fullstack
About The Position
LoVasco helps organizations deliver exceptional benefits and retirement programs to the people they employ, while also stewarding the financial well-being of individuals in and out of the workplace. We engage clients who genuinely prioritize their employees, and we give them the tools, education, and programs that help their people achieve financial security for themselves and their families. Engineering at LoVasco was born out of a simple desire: to solve our own problems. We believe in purpose-built software. Opinionated design. Polished, thoughtful workflows that bring clarity to our teams, elevate what we're capable of, are a joy to use, and are genuinely powerful. At the end of the day, our goal is to deliver the best possible experience to our clients—and we believe that owning the software we use to deliver our services, and that our clients and their participants use to interact with us, is the best way to do it. What we're building is platform that serves as an “operating system” for our consulting business. For our teams, it's where we manage and make sense of our data, sharpen the insights we deliver, and automate the "work around work" so our people can focus on how best to serve our clients. For our clients, it's a centralized place to engage with those insights, own their data, and measure the impact of their programs. For participants, it's an education experience and a set of tools that feel tailored to them, are genuinely useful, and help them get the most out of their benefits.
