Abacus Insights is a mission-driven, start-up technology company that is focused on improving health outcomes, lowering the cost of healthcare, and delivering a more seamless healthcare experience.  At our core, we are passionate about advancing healthcare and improving people’s lives through technology.

Abacus Insights provides a flexible, efficient, and secure platform that organizes and exchanges data from various sources and formats, allowing healthcare companies to uncover differentiated insights that address their customers’ needs.  Our employees know that they play an active role in keeping our customers’ data safe and are responsible for ensuring that our comprehensive policies and practices are met. 

With our deep expertise in cloud-enabled technologies and knowledge of the healthcare industry, we have built an innovative data integration and management platform that allows healthcare payers’ access to data that has been historically siloed and inaccessible.  Through our platform, these health insurance payers can ingest and manage all the data they need to transform their business by supporting their analytical, operational, and financial needs.

Through this mission and passion to aid people and population health, we have built a highly successful SaaS business that is heavily funded (since our founding in 2017 we have over $81 million) by leading VC firms who have deep expertise in the healthcare and technology industries.  At Abacus, we are solving problems of massive scale and complexity in an industry that is not only ripe for disruption but requires innovation.

  • Implementation Roadmap: Define the solution architecture visions for designated components that describe the long-term goals as well as near-term needs of the client.
  • Solution Architecture: Author the project architecture design documents, including data flows, sequence diagrams and overall system architecture, that will drive the technical implementation of the solutions.  This role will primarily focus on defining solutions for the Medicaid line of business.
  • Training and Support: Provide training to internal teams on business needs and use cases for seamless client implementation. Provide ongoing support to address questions and issues raised by the implementation team.

  • Domain expertise in Medicaid data sets, specifically T-MSIS (Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System) and how it is used by Medicaid plans.
  • Ability to define the solution architecture vision in architecture design documents
  • Broad and general technical knowledge as well as competencies in infrastructure, data models, service orientation, programming, frameworks, standards, and technical modeling.  Strong experience with AWS, Azure, Databricks and Snowflake desired.
  • Strong understanding of healthcare industry trends, regulations, and customer needs with preference for previous payer operational experience  
  • Experience translating business needs into technology solutions that enable delivery of the Abacus platform.
  • Strong communicator who can leverage their domain and technical expertise effectively with the client and build working relationships with internal and external team members.  Ability to communicate succinctly and clearly, both verbally and written, across technical and non-technical audiences at multiple levels, including business leaders.
  • Experience working in the payer / insurance data space and understanding of the historical data architecture needs of our clients.
  • Understanding of client services or experience working for a cloud-based data management provider to large clients.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
