Software Engineer—Product Development

Summary

AAPC is a healthcare training, certification, and solutions association. The Software Engineer—Product Development will translate customer problems and business needs into production-ready technology, owning delivery across the full technology lifecycle. The role also involves using AI-assisted engineering practices, making autonomous technical decisions, and continuously improving products, systems, and engineering workflows.

Responsibilities

• Turn clearly articulated customer problems, business needs, and business rules into production-ready technology
• Own delivery across the complete technology lifecycle: discovery, technical design, implementation, testing, deployment, observability, monitoring, support, and continuous improvement
• Break complex outcomes into executable work and coordinate agents toward a common goal
• Investigate and resolve ambiguity independently when you can determine the answer through technical judgment, research, customer context, or existing standards
• Identify genuine product questions early and return them quickly enough that answers don’t delay delivery
• Make technical decisions autonomously while remaining aligned with shared architectural principles, platforms, and standards
• Deliver valuable increments early, learn from real usage, and iterate rapidly
• Create and improve reusable skills, components, frameworks, workflows, and automation that increase the effectiveness of future engineering work
• Strengthen testing, code review, security analysis, accessibility, quality assurance, monitoring, and incident diagnosis
• Measure success by customer and business outcomes, not by the number of stories completed or the amount of code produced

Skills

• At least a few years of professional software development experience
• Demonstrated experience taking software from an initial idea through production delivery
• Practical experience across the broader technology lifecycle, including software development, deployment, DevOps, observability, monitoring, and production support
• The ability to work across technical boundaries rather than remaining limited to one narrow layer of a system
• Strong judgment about when to act independently, when to investigate further, and when a decision must return to Product or another responsible stakeholder
• Experience using agentic coding tools, or compelling evidence that you are actively developing an agentic engineering practice
• The ability to direct, evaluate, and integrate AI-generated work while retaining full accountability for its correctness and quality
• A history of learning unfamiliar technologies and applying them to real problems
• Clear, concise communication, especially when raising questions, explaining tradeoffs, or working asynchronously
• A customer-oriented mindset and an understanding that successful engineering creates customer and business value
• The initiative to improve the systems and processes around you rather than repeatedly working around the same problems
