Salud Healthcare

Salud Healthcare is transforming how value-based care is delivered by empowering provider organizations with data-driven insights, modern technology, and operational excellence. As a rapidly growing Management Services Organization (MSO), Salud partners with physician groups to improve patient outcomes, optimize clinical performance, and navigate the complexities of value-based care. Our technology platform serves as the connective tissue between providers, payers, analytics, and operations—helping healthcare organizations close care gaps, improve quality outcomes, and drive better financial performance. We are building the next generation of healthcare applications that power population health management, risk adjustment, care coordination, analytics, and provider engagement.

Position Summary

Salud Healthcare is seeking a Principal Software Engineer to help architect, build, and scale the technology foundation that powers our value-based care platform.

This is a hands-on, player-coach role for an experienced engineer who enjoys balancing software development, technical leadership, architecture, and mentorship. You will serve as a key technical partner to the VP of Technology & Data Analytics, helping transform healthcare business requirements into scalable software solutions that support providers, payers, and operational teams.

You will lead development across a portfolio of healthcare applications spanning population health analytics, care management, risk adjustment, provider engagement, and operational workflows. While this role includes leadership responsibilities, we are specifically looking for someone who remains close to the code, enjoys solving complex technical problems, and can lead through technical credibility rather than organizational hierarchy.

The ideal candidate brings a strong combination of healthcare technology experience, software architecture expertise, and practical engineering leadership. They understand how healthcare data moves through systems, can navigate provider and payer workflows, and possess the judgment to build durable solutions that balance immediate business needs with long-term platform scalability.

Success in this role will be measured by your ability to establish scalable technical foundations, deliver production-ready applications, improve engineering practices, reduce technical debt, and serve as a trusted technical advisor across technology, analytics, operations, and executive leadership.
