Full Stack Staff Software Engineer

At CVS Health, we're building a world of health around every consumer and surrounding ourselves with dedicated colleagues who are passionate about transforming health care. As the nation's leading health solutions company, we reach millions of Americans through our local presence, digital channels and more than 300,000 purpose-driven colleagues – caring for people where, when and how they choose in a way that is uniquely more connected, more convenient and more compassionate. And we do it all with heart, each and every day. This is a high-impact, high-autonomous role suited for a detail-oriented and collaborative individual who thrives on ownership, knows how to apply best practices, and can independently design, build, and maintain production-grade software. While you'll be leveraging your core software engineering expertise, you'll also be at the forefront of our data modernization, gaining deep insights into modern data architectures and practices by building the tools that enable them. You will have access to AI tooling to assist in all aspects of the SDLC.

You will build a solution that will provide:

• Self-Service Data Ingestion
• Automated Monitoring & Incident Management
• Data Preview Capabilities

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, and maintain a full-stack application using React (TypeScript) and Python.
• Build out frontend interfaces and backend services — including data models, APIs, caching, and observability.
• Integrate with Kafka-driven pipelines and the Snowflake data platform.
• Own the full lifecycle of the application — from architecture and implementation to CI/CD and monitoring.
• Apply best practices for testing, logging, error handling, and scalability.
• Contribute to infrastructure automation with Terraform.
• Leverage Cursor AI, MCPs and other AI tooling for assisted development and code reuse.
• Mentoring other developers.

Required Qualifications:

• 8+ years' experience designing and delivering production-grade full-stack applications.
• 6+ years' hands-on experience in React and TypeScript or JavaScript.
• 5+ years' experience programming in Python.
• 3+ years' experience with Kafka or similar event-streaming platforms.
• 3+ years' experience with containerized development using Docker and deploying through CI/CD pipelines (Azure DevOps/GitHub).
• 3+ years' experience working with relational databases and/or data platforms (Snowflake, SQL Server, Postgres).
• 2+ years' experience working with REST and API development.
• 2+ years testing experience — including unit, integration, and mocking frameworks.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience working with Cursor AI, AI-enhanced development environments, or modular automation tools like MCPs.
• Familiarity with Terraform for infrastructure-as-code.
• Exposure to CQRS, Domain-Driven Design, and MediatR.
• Knowledge of structured logging, retry policies, and health check integrations.
• Understanding of security concepts like JWT, Okta, and policy-based auth.
• Experience with DBT (Data Build Tool).

Education:

• Bachelor of Science in Computer Science or a related field.
