Implement secure coding practices and address application security vulnerabilities
Utilize AI-assisted development tools such as GitHub Copilot to improve engineering productivity and software delivery
Participate in Agile ceremonies, solution design, code reviews, sprint planning, and estimation activities
Contribute to CI/CD pipelines, DevOps automation, and infrastructure management using tools such as GitHub Actions, Jenkins, Docker, Kubernetes, and Terraform
Evaluate emerging technologies, industry trends, and best practices to drive continuous improvement and innovation
Collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams and promote engineering excellence through knowledge sharing and adoption of standards

You'll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.

Required Qualifications:

Bachelor's degree in computer science, Information Technology, or a related technical discipline

Passion for technology, innovation, and continuous learning
Solid problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills

*All employees working remotely will be required to adhere to UnitedHealth Group's Telecommuter Policy.

At UnitedHealth Group, our mission is to help people live healthier lives and make the health system work better for everyone. We believe everyone-of every race, gender, sexuality, age, location and income-deserves the opportunity to live their healthiest life. Today, however, there are still far too many barriers to good health which are disproportionately experienced by people of color, historically marginalized groups and those with lower incomes. We are committed to mitigating our impact on the environment and enabling and delivering equitable care that addresses health disparities and improves health outcomes - an enterprise priority reflected in our mission.

UnitedHealth Group is an Equal Employment Opportunity employer under applicable law and qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, national origin, religion, age, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, or protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by local, state, or federal laws, rules, or regulations.
