We bring together world-class clinicians, technologists, and autism specialists to build cutting-edge AI tools that help care teams work smarter and spend more time with the children and families who need them most.\nOur platform is HIPAA-compliant and designed for the real-world needs of behavioral health teams - from psychologists to ABA therapists. By combining evidence-based care with powerful technology, we’re expanding access to high-quality services for families everywhere.\n\nOur Mission\nFrontera exists to close the care gap: every child, no matter where they live, should be able to access effective behavioral healthcare.\n\nThe Role\nHealthcare data is fragmented by default. Every provider, payer, EHR, referral source, and clinical system speaks a slightly different language. For Frontera to scale, both as a care delivery organization and as a technology platform, that fragmentation has to disappear behind a reliable, extensible integration and data layer.\nAs a Senior+ Software Engineer on our Integrations Platform, you'll be the technical lead for that layer, owning it end-to-end.\nThis role sits within our ML & Data organization because we don't view integrations as implementation plumbing. The systems we connect determine what data Frontera can access, how cleanly we can understand it, and ultimately what our product and AI systems can do with it. Every integration expands the number of organizations Frontera can work with, and adds breadth, fidelity, and context to the clinical data underlying the platform. That is the same longitudinal dataset that comes from operating real care alongside our own platform, not abstract transaction data.\nThis is a hands-on role. You'll spend roughly 70% of your time building, deep in the code and shaping architecture decisions, and the remainder working across Product, Clinical Operations, ML/Data, and external partners to make sure we're solving the right problems. You'll be the engineering owner for integrations from day one. Managing people is not a requirement at the start, but as integration volume and complexity grow, there's a clear path to growing the team and stepping into formal lead responsibilities.\nWhat You'll Do\nAct as the tech lead for integrations, with end-to-end ownership of discovery, data mapping, implementation, reliability, observability, and long-term maintainability\nOwn the integration architecture: design how Frontera connects with external healthcare systems (EHRs, partners, and other data sources), establishing reusable patterns and tooling rather than one-off builds for each new organization\nIdentify which problems are worth solving, not just solve the ones you're assigned. You'll help define the right answer where the specification doesn't yet exist, working directly with external technical teams and internal stakeholders\nBring an AI-informed lens to the work itself: use agentic tooling to accelerate data mapping and schema discovery across new partner systems, rather than treating each integration as a fully manual build. Judgment on when to automate discovery versus handle a partner's edge cases by hand is part of the craft\nShape the unified data model underneath those integrations, in close partnership with ML/Data, Product, Engineering, and Clinical Operations\nSet clear standards for data quality, error handling, monitoring, and operational ownership as integration volume grows\nHelp determine what should become platform capability versus what should be solved pragmatically for a specific partner or workflow\nRaise the technical bar for the team by mentoring engineers, setting working norms, and contributing to hiring as the function scales\nWhy This Matters\nBetter integrations mean faster onboarding of new organizations, less operational friction for clinicians and teams, and a more complete view of the care journey. They also improve the quality and usefulness of the data Frontera can learn from, because we operate care directly and that data reflects real clinical workflows and outcomes. As that dataset grows, it becomes increasingly important to how we evaluate care models, build AI systems, improve workflows, and differentiate the platform. This role is one of the foundational technical layers behind that scale strategy.\nQualifications\n6+ years of experience in backend-leaning software engineering, with strong experience building APIs, integration systems, or distributed backend services\nTrack record of owning technically complex projects end-to-end, with ownership that extends beyond your own lane\nExperience building and scaling integration platforms, APIs, or data pipelines in production environments\nStrong understanding of system design, distributed systems, and data flow between services\nExperience working with third-party integrations (e.g., healthcare systems, EHRs, SaaS platforms, or partner APIs) is highly preferred\nComfortable operating in fast-paced, ambiguous, zero-to-one environments, moving between architecture, hands-on implementation, partner conversations, and product tradeoffs\nExperience mentoring or leading engineers, formally or informally, is a plus; we're looking for someone who can grow into leading a team\nFamiliarity with agentic or AI-assisted tooling for tasks like schema mapping, data discovery, or accelerating integration work is a strong plus\nStrong product mindset, focused on building practical, reliable solutions that deliver real user and business impact\nExcellent communication skills and ability to drive alignment across technical and non-technical stakeholders\nInterest in healthcare and/or experience working with regulated data (HIPAA, PHI) is a plus\nCompensation\nThis role is open to candidates across multiple levels. We're also open to candidates at more senior levels, and we'll adjust the level and compensation band accordingly. Final level and compensation will be determined through the interview process based on experience, technical depth, and scope.\nExpected Salary Range in Denver: $160,000 to $220,000\nExpected Salary Range in San Francisco: $175,000 to $240,000\nWhy Frontera?\nOpportunity to be at the forefront of innovation in pediatric healthcare.\nWork on challenging and impactful projects that leverage cutting-edge technologies.\nCollaborate with a talented and passionate team in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.\nMake a real difference in the lives of children and families in rural communities.\nCompetitive salary and benefits package.\nOur Denver Office & Perks\nDog-friendly office.\nCatered lunch from local Denver restaurants five days a week, plus occasional breakfasts and dinners.\nRobust snack program and great coffee options (including cappuccino machine and cold brew cans).\nRegular team events and low-key socials.\nUp to $150/month commuter stipend, discounted nearby parking, and a discounted Colorado Athletic Club membership.\nThoughtfully designed space for focus, collaboration, and connection.\nCompetitive health benefits, stock options, 401(k), and generous PTO.\nJoin us in building the future of behavioral healthcare!","description_format":"text","description_chars":7181,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":6,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Stock
