The opportunity timeline

• Overview

  CVS Health is hiring a Senior Software Engineer in Renton, WA.

• Role description

  We need a Senior Software Engineer who can take a vague technology request and return an ownership-driven system that does exactly, and only, what was asked. What anchors this Renton job is ownership; the $133,000 - $192,000, the internship hours, the 6-year ask all hang off that.

  Key Responsibilities

  • Support migration of on-premise services to cloud-native architecture
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to a strong code-review culture
  • Track and report on key performance metrics for technology services
  • Slice the craft-focused technology monolith into Swift services Renton, WA can deploy alone
  • Write the Public Speaking integration tests that catch regressions before Renton, WA ships them
  • Turn CVS Health's Linux on-call noise into alerts that actually mean something
  • Pair-program tricky PostgreSQL edge cases with engineers across Renton, WA
  • Mentor newer senior hires on how CVS Health actually wires Jenkins together

  What You'll Bring

  • A solid foundation in Kafka, refined over 5+ years
  • Demonstrated ability to manage competing priorities under tight deadlines
  • The kind of empathy that makes hard feedback land softly
  • Hands-on Swift experience that survives a whiteboard interview
  • 5+ years building trust the slow, unglamorous way
  • An instinct for prioritization when everything is labeled urgent

  Founded by engineers who believe small teams ship great software, CVS Health now serves customers across the country from its Renton, WA office. You'll find a flat structure where the best argument wins, regardless of title.

  This Renton, WA role comes with $133,000 - $192,000, hybrid work, paid learning days, and a mentor focused on your Kafka growth.

  Hiring is open and ongoing for this internship position in Renton.
