Key skills for this role
Thatch is rewiring how health benefits work. We build software that powers employer-funded coverage and gives employees real control over how they use their benefits.
We’re looking for a Full Stack Software Engineer to own broad product surfaces, from concept to production. You’ll build across the frontend and backend systems that power onboarding, benefits management, and payments. This work touches real money and real healthcare decisions. Correctness and reliability matter, but so does making the experience feel simple for the people using it.
We organize engineering around the people we serve: members, employers, and partners, so teams own end-to-end experiences and ship with speed and accountability.
