Job description

At Veracyte, we offer exciting career opportunities for those interested in joining a pioneering team that is committed to transforming cancer care for patients across the globe. Working at Veracyte enables our employees to not only make a meaningful impact on the lives of patients, but to also learn and grow within a purpose driven environment. This is what we call the Veracyte way – it’s about how we work together, guided by our values, to give clinicians the insights they need to help patients make life-changing decisions. 

Our Values:

• We Seek A Better Way: We pursue bold ideas, embrace complexity, and keep pushing forward.
• We Make It Happen: We act with urgency, deliver with excellence, and always find a way. 
• We Are Stronger Together: We engage with empathy, align around what's best for Veracyte, and celebrate as one team. 
• We Care Deeply: We show up with integrity, kindness, and respect for one another. 

The Position:

Veracyte is seeking an experienced Software Development Manager to lead the engineering team responsible for our AI-powered Billing Automation platform. This team builds and operates software that improves laboratory billing, reimbursement, claims processing, and other revenue-cycle workflows through cloud-native applications, enterprise integrations, workflow automation, and artificial intelligence. 

The Software Development Manager will be accountable for the team’s people leadership, technical direction, execution, and operational performance. This leader will establish effective engineering practices, develop a high-performing team, and ensure the predictable delivery of secure, reliable, and maintainable software. 

You will partner closely with Product Management, Revenue Cycle Management, Finance, Laboratory Operations, Data & AI, Enterprise Applications, Architecture, and CloudOps. Together, these groups identify business needs and deliver software that reduces manual effort, improves billing accuracy, accelerates reimbursement, and increases operational efficiency. 

The ideal candidate is, first and foremost, an accomplished software engineering manager with a strong record of developing engineers and delivering complex enterprise software. Experience with healthcare billing, revenue-cycle management, or AI-enabled products is valuable but not required. 

This is a hybrid role based out of our San Diego, CA or South San Francisco, CA office. We may also be open to remote for the ideal candidate. 

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead, mentor, and grow a high-performing software engineering team responsible for Veracyte's AI-Powered Billing Automation platform.
• Define and execute the engineering roadmap in partnership with Product Management, Revenue Cycle Management, Finance, Laboratory Operations, Data & AI, and Architecture.
• Deliver secure, scalable, and highly available cloud-native applications, APIs, and AI-enabled services supporting laboratory billing, reimbursement, claims processing, and revenue cycle workflows.
• Define the technical strategy for applying AI to billing automation, balancing innovation with reliability, security, regulatory compliance, and measurable business outcomes.
• Partner with AI engineers, data scientists, and business stakeholders to identify and prioritize opportunities for intelligent automation across the revenue cycle.
• Lead the development of AI-powered capabilities such as intelligent document processing, claims validation, exception handling, payer rule interpretation, coding assistance, workflow orchestration, and operational copilots.
• Design and implement integrations with enterprise platforms including ERP, CRM, laboratory information systems (LIS), electronic medical record (EMR/EHR) systems, clearinghouses, payer systems, and AI platforms.
• Establish engineering best practices for integrating generative AI and machine learning into production systems, including evaluation, monitoring, governance, observability, and human-in-the-loop workflows.
• Drive engineering excellence through modern software development practices including CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code (IaC), automated testing, code quality, security, and platform observability.
• Ensure applications meet performance, reliability, scalability, and compliance requirements while protecting sensitive healthcare and financial data.
• Collaborate with CloudOps and Platform Engineering to optimize AWS infrastructure for availability, performance, security, and cost efficiency.
• Establish engineering and operational KPIs that measure software quality, AI solution effectiveness, delivery predictability, and business impact.
• Foster a culture of ownership, experimentation, innovation, continuous learning, and responsible AI adoption.

Who You Are:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience. 
• 6+ years of software engineering experience, including 3+ years managing software development teams. 
• Demonstrated success hiring, developing, and retaining high-performing engineers while managing performance, career growth, and team effectiveness. 
• Proven experience leading the design, delivery, and operation of enterprise software, including cloud-native applications, APIs, distributed systems, and systems integrations. 
• Strong knowledge of modern engineering practices, including architecture and design, automated testing, CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code, security, observability, and production support. 
• Experience managing the complete software development lifecycle while balancing feature delivery, software quality, technical debt, reliability, and long-term architectural needs. 
• Demonstrated ability to improve engineering execution, delivery predictability, and operational performance using iterative development practices and meaningful metrics. 
• Excellent communication, stakeholder-management, organizational, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to collaborate across technical and business teams. 

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience delivering software for healthcare operations, revenue-cycle management, laboratory billing, claims processing, reimbursement, coding, or payer integrations. 
• Experience delivering AI-enabled products, intelligent automation, document processing, operational copilots, or workflow-orchestration solutions in production. 
• Familiarity with generative AI and machine-learning technologies, including LLMs, retrieval-augmented generation, vector search, AI agents, model evaluation, and human-in-the-loop workflows. 
• Experience integrating AI services or frameworks such as Amazon Bedrock, OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure OpenAI, LangGraph, LangChain, Semantic Kernel, or similar technologies. 
• Familiarity with healthcare regulations, standards, and transactions such as HIPAA, HL7, FHIR, X12, CPT, and ICD-10. 
• Experience with laboratory systems and workflows or enterprise platforms such as SAP, Salesforce, Workday, Oracle, clearinghouses, and electronic health record systems. 
• Experience modernizing legacy applications, leading distributed or hybrid teams, or working in regulated healthcare, diagnostics, life sciences, or medical-device environments. 
• Relevant AWS certification, such as Solutions Architect, Developer, or DevOps Engineer.

How to prepare and behave

This is editorial guidance, not information from the employer.

• Read the whole description and match your examples to its requirements; use the same words the posting uses where they are true for you.
• Research the employer before the interview: what it does, who its customers are and recent news; prepare two or three questions about the work.
• Arrive early (or log in early for a video call), dress one step above the daily dress code, and test your camera and audio beforehand.
• Answer with short stories: the situation, what you did and the result. Give numbers when you have them and never invent them.
• Be honest about gaps; say what you did to learn and how fast you can close them.
• Ask about the team, the first 90 days, how success is measured and the schedule; do not open with salary and time off.
• When pay comes up, know the market range for the occupation and your lowest acceptable offer before you answer; ask for the full package in writing.
• Send a short thank-you message within a day, mentioning one thing you discussed.
• The listing mentions a remote or flexible location. Confirm with the employer whether remote work applies to your state: taxes, licensing and benefits can depend on where you live.
• Have code, data work or projects you can show, and be ready to think aloud: many technical interviews test how you reason, not only the answer.

The city

The job is in San Diego, CA. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.

How San Diego compares. Among the 145 largest places in California, San Diego is #2 by population, #17 for long commutes (#1 = fewest), #116 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #39 for college degrees (#1 = most). Its county, San Diego County, is #8 of 58 counties for average pay ($82,854).

The place in numbers

San Diego has 1,389,526 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 3.5% of the population of California. It covers 326 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 4,261 people per square mile. The median age is 36.2, 4% younger than the state median (36.2 against 37.9).

The median gross rent is $2,313 a month (rent plus utilities), 14% above the state median ($2,313 against $2,036). Over a year that is 25.7% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $906,700, which is 8.4 times the median household income ($108,077); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 47.3% of households own their home, 15% below the state average (47.3% against 55.9%).

Work and pay

The San Diego-Chula Vista-Carlsbad, CA metropolitan area has 1,538,060 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $58,690 a year, 15% above the national median ($58,690 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are food preparation and serving related (161,910 jobs, median $38,840); office and administrative support (155,940 jobs, median $52,940); sales and related (124,550 jobs, median $44,010). The area is most specialised in life, physical, and social science (1.7 times) and architecture and engineering (1.5 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($136,440) and computer and mathematical ($129,520). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of San Diego County was 4.7%. 65.1% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in San Diego County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.

Getting around

Among workers, 62.6% drive alone, 2.7% use public transit, 3.5% walk, 21.2% work from home. 9.5% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 51% below the state average (9.5% against 19.4%).

People and education

51.0% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 38% above the state share (51.0% against 37.1%). 25.1% of residents were born outside the United States, 7% below the state share (25.1% against 27.0%). The poverty rate is 11.0%, 8% below the state rate (11.0% against 12.0%).

Climate

The warmest month is Aug, averaging 77°F (24.9°C), and the coolest is Dec at 51°F (10.7°C). About 320 mm (13 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Feb is the wettest month (70 mm) and Jun the driest (2 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.

Nearby cities to compare

Closest cities in this guide: El Cajon (10 miles, rent 20% lower); Chula Vista (15 miles, rent 4% lower); San Marcos (22 miles, similar rent); Escondido (22 miles, rent 12% lower). Rent differences are against San Diego; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
