Already, thousands of dental providers and insurers rely on our platform to deliver the best possible care. Now, we’re looking for talented people to fulfill our mission: improve oral health for all.\nOverjet is where builders become leaders. Everyone here loves to make new things: new products, new partnerships, new content, and a new category of AI technology. And as Overjet grows ridiculously fast, so will you.\nSimply put, there’s no better place to accelerate your career. Come join us!\nThe Mission and the Hard Part\nDentists and insurers use Overjet to make real decisions about patient care and claims, which means the software underneath has to be right. Features that ship late stall the product, and bugs that ship at all land in front of clinicians and payers. A Senior Engineer is the person who keeps both from happening: someone who takes a problem from vague idea to reliable production system, with minimal hand-holding. You’ll work with Product, ML scientists, and fellow engineers on the San Mateo team, and you’ll own meaningful pieces of the platform from the start.\nNobody will hand you a perfectly scoped ticket. You’ll untangle ambiguous requirements, make design calls, and then own what happens when your code runs in production, including being on call. If shipping dependable software for healthcare, at startup speed, sounds like a fun problem, keep reading.\nWhat You’ll Own\nFeatures and services from design through production. That means scoping the problem, choosing the approach, building it well, and staying accountable for how it behaves after launch.\n\nThe quality of the code you and your teammates ship. That means thoughtful reviews, solid tests, and fixing root causes instead of patching symptoms.\n\nReliability of the systems you touch. That means monitoring, alerting, and incident response that catch problems before customers do.\n\nClear technical communication with Product, ML, and other engineers. That means turning requirements into plans and flagging risks early.\n\nThe growth of less experienced engineers around you. That means mentoring through reviews, pairing, and sharing what you know.\n\nWhat Makes the Right Candidate Keep Reading\nYou’ve spent years building and running production backend systems, and you’ve learned what separates code that works from code that holds up. You take ownership without being asked, you ask good questions when requirements are unclear, and you move fast without cutting corners that matter. The traits that matter most here are high agency and curiosity: you dig into root causes and you pick up new tools, including AI tools, and use them with good judgment. If you want a narrowly scoped role where someone else decides what to build, this isn’t the right seat.\nEducation: Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field preferred; equivalent experience welcome\n\nSkills: Strong backend development in Python (or Go, Java, or a comparable language); SQL and relational databases; REST APIs; cloud infrastructure (GCP or AWS); Docker; CI/CD; sound testing practices; judicious use of AI tools in development. A plus: Kubernetes, Terraform, and healthcare or regulated-data experience (for example HIPAA)\n\nExperience: 5+ years of software engineering building and shipping production systems\n\nWhy Overjet?\nCompetitive Compensation and Equity\n\nHybrid workplace that provides flexibility, vibrant in-person workspaces, and the ability to build strong connections across all of Overjet - regardless of location\n\n401k plans with a matching program\n\nMedical, Dental and Vision coverage: 99% employee premium covered, 75% dependent premium covered\n\nLife and AD+D Insurance\n\n8 weeks Paid Parental Leave\n\nOptional HSA with Employer contribution\n\nFlexible Time Off and company paid holidays\n\nOur Hybrid Workplace\nWe have a unique hybrid workplace at Overjet - which combines the teamwork of meeting in person, with the flexibility of working from anywhere.\nMany of our positions are based in San Mateo, New York City, Boston, and Salt Lake City. The Jetters who live in these “geo-hubs” come to the office on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, while having the option to work from home the rest of the week.\nOur People Team is happy to answer any questions about what hybrid work means for your specific role!\nOverjet's Values\nExcellence: Aim Higher\n\nVelocity: Quickly Deliver Results\n\nOwnership: Go the Extra Mile\n\nWin-win: Care Deeply\n\nCompany Recognition\nIncluded on Best Places to Work by BuiltIn lists in 2026: #3 overall in the US, #1 in NYC, #1 in San Francisco, and #2 in Boston\n\n#4 on FastCompanys's Most Innovative Companies list in Healthcare for 2026\n\nNamed one of the TIME Best Inventions of 2024\n\nRecognized in Newsweek’s Most Loved Workplaces in America 2024\n\nWon the Dental Health category at the Digital Health Awards 2024 and 2024 Best Places to Work by Built In\n\nRecognized as one of the Top Startups of 2023 by LinkedIn\n\nIncluded on the definitive 2022 Forbes AI 50\n\nEEOC\nOverjet is an equal opportunity employer.
