Job Summary Alivi is seeking a Lead Software Developer with deep healthcare payer domain expertise to join our CapAdmin platform team, our proprietary claims administration system supporting our TPA (Third-Party Administrator) operations.

This is a hybrid technical-SME leadership role designed to bridge the gap between engineering execution and payer / claims business knowledge.

The ideal candidate is a senior developer who has lived inside a payer or TPA platform someone who understands not just how to build software, but how claims, eligibility, capitation, COB, UM, and UB04 workflows actually function in a real payer environment.

• · UB04 / CMS-1500 institutional and professional claim form processing · Coordination of Benefits (COB) — primary, secondary, tertiary payer logic · Utilization Management (UM) — prior authorization, medical necessity, concurrent review integrations · Capitation models — PMPM calculations, cap reconciliation, risk pool accounting, sub-cap arrangements · Eligibility & enrollment (834 transactions) · Claims adjudication rules, edits, and pricing logic · EDI standards: 837, 835, 270/271, 276/277, 278 Translate complex payer business requirements into clear, complete technical specifications before development begins.

• incomplete requirements. · Define and document acceptance criteria grounded in payer regulations and customer contracts. 3.4 Cross-Functional Collaboration · Partner with Operations leadership on claims accuracy, capitation reconciliation, and customer-facing escalations. · Support customer-facing technical conversations with payer clients (Sunshine Health, Humana, etc.) when domain expertise is needed. · Collaborate with the Architecture, Security, and Data / BI teams on enterprise alignment.
