Software Engineer, Backend Developer

Casechek is on a mission to innovate the implant supply chain and bring greater transparency to the cost of patient care. From procurement to payment, Casechek automates workflows for vendor-supported surgical procedures. Our emergent Bill Only solution provides a comprehensive system of record for hospitals and health systems to manage the complexity of surgical cases involving implantable medical devices, expose hidden expenses, and surface revenue opportunities.

In this role, you will design, build, and improve the technology that powers Casechek’s mobile and web products. As a Software Engineer, you will develop scalable cloud-based solutions, contribute to technical architecture and design decisions, and help translate product goals into reliable software. You will collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and other internal teams to deliver solutions that meet customer and business needs.

You will also help strengthen our development practices, code quality, testing standards, and overall technical capabilities.

Your day-to-day interactions will require strategic thinking, strong communication skills, the ability to leverage data, and comfort managing complex initiatives. You should be adept at navigating new technologies and collaborating with cross-functional teams to deliver exceptional service and support.

Casechek is a highly collaborative environment, and our team is also self-motivated and works independently. We strongly believe that great ideas are not created in isolation. Our team interacts with our healthcare customers to understand their needs and ultimately deliver the best user experience possible.

Casechek is based out of Chicago’s Fulton Market, but we’re a hybrid, remote, and in-person team.

We are highly motivated and passionate about solving healthcare’s messiest problems with new technologies.

We value diversity, curiosity, and a passion for learning. The team has a lot of advanced degrees and even a few professional musicians.

Innovating the implant supply chain is a marathon and not a sprint. We support each other in long‑term growth and value developing transferable skills.
