Engineering Manager Job Oakland area,California USA,Software Development

Welbe Health is a value-based healthcare organization that’s transforming the future of senior care by providing an all-inclusive care option to our most vulnerable senior population. We step in as the care provider and care planner that work to keep our participants within their communities, out of institutions, and cared for like family, all while receiving the healthcare and social services needed to thrive.

The Engineering Manager is a hands‑on technical leader that drives the delivery of production‑grade solutions, in partnership with multiple teams. This role mirrors technical leadership, engineering rigor serving as the technical anchor for a dedicated team while enabling broader organizational scaling. The Engineering Manager builds scalable, cloud‑native solutions on Azure using microservices architecture and the .NET stack, embeds Dev Sec Ops and compliance by default, and champions AI‑assisted engineering as everyday practice.

Working within Welbe Health architecture standards and design patterns, this role leverages the agile life cycle for solutions deployment in all projects, objectively assesses quality and logistics production readiness, and regularly and directly collaborates with the Solutions Architecture, Security, Application Management, Infrastructure Management, and Customer Service teams.

This role is different because the Engineering Manager at Welbe Health:

Combines hands‑on engineering leadership with strategic technical ownership, providing the opportunity to build and scale production‑grade solutions while shaping engineering standards, technical direction, and best practices
Leads engineering at the intersection of healthcare, cloud technology, and AI, with the opportunity to modernize complex healthcare systems, embed Dev Sec Ops and security by design, and establish how AI‑assisted engineering is adopted across high‑impact technology initiatives

We care about our team members. That’s why we offer:

Medical insurance coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)
Work/life balance - We mean it! 17 days of personal time off (PTO), 12 holidays observed annually, and 6 sick days
401K savings + match
Comprehensive compensation package including base pay and bonus
And additional benefits!

On the day-to-day, you will:

Act as the senior‑most engineer for the team: design components, write high‑quality code, troubleshoot complex issues, perform rigorous code reviews, and own the team’s technical roadmap, leading end‑to‑end architecture, development, and delivery of technical solutions for internal and external healthcare systems
Build scalable, cloud‑native solutions on Azure using microservices architecture and the .NET stack
Drive adoption of AI‑assisted coding across the team: establish how engineers use agentic development tools for scaffolding, refactoring, test generation, and legacy code comprehension, define the code review standards that keep generated code secure and maintainable, and hold the bar on engineering judgment rather than volume of output
Own the engineering practices for building AI‑backed features: context and retrieval design over Welbe Health data, evaluation and monitoring, PHI‑safe prompting and logging, and the human review points
Collaborate with Product, Architecture, Cloud, Security, and other engineering teams to define integration strategies and solution blueprints
Translate complex technical designs into clear communication for non‑technical stakeholders, as well as work closely with business partners to align technical outcomes with organizational priorities
Ensure all development aligns with HIPAA, PHI/PII‑safe engineering, and healthcare interoperability requirements
Implement secure software design patterns, RBAC, data governance, encryption…
