Remote Optum Medical Coding Jobs in Riverside, CA

About Invoca:

Invoca is the leading AI-powered conversation intelligence platform. We empower marketing, sales, customer experience, and contact center teams to unlock the intent and insights within every customer interaction – driving better customer experiences, increased revenue, and improved operational efficiency. Join our dynamic, fast-growing team, where innovation and collaboration are at the core of our culture.

About the Team:

Octothorpe is a platform multiplier team: we build, maintain, and support tooling for connecting pieces of the platform (gems/libraries, CI/CD, shared infrastructure patterns) to improve the lives of service owners.

Invoca's Release Engineering "North Star" is that any change that supports a service (code/config/infra/secrets/process settings) flows through a standard build & deploy process with CI, config validation, security checks, health checks, and rollback quickly and reliably.

Octothorpe owns and evolves the tooling and processes that power developer autonomy, automation, standardization, tight feedback loops, and staging/production parity.

About the Role:

As a Senior Software Engineer I on Octothorpe, you'll be an individual contributor reporting to the Sr. Software Engineering Manager. You'll focus on turning our internal engineering platform vision into reality by strengthening our CI/CD, driving key Ruby/Rails platform upgrades, and making authentication/authorization safer and more standardized across services.

You'll operate as an expert within the team's domains: solving large-scope problems, leading small efforts from design through rollout, and helping your teammates remove bottlenecks. The work is highly cross-functional and platform-oriented.

You Will:

• Build and maintain reliable, scalable CI/CD workflows (guardrails, automation, reusable patterns/templates).
• Enhance Backstage as the unified developer portal, improving CI/CD visibility, deployment tracking, and self-service workflows.
• Improve developer feedback loops: reduce flaky pipelines, speed up builds/tests, and increase observability of the release toolchain.
• Operationally support release tooling (triage, incident follow-ups, preventative improvements).

• Lead or heavily contribute to Ruby and Rails upgrade efforts, including:
• Coordinating cross-repo changes (application, Docker/CI images, shared gems, test strategy).
• Creating safe rollout plans (canaries, staged deploys, rollback paths) and enabling other teams through docs/runbooks.

• Build and improve self-service tooling and Golden Path workflows through Backstage, CI/CD templates, and standardized patterns so service teams can safely own their own infra, config, and auth changes without gatekeepers.
• Help standardize and operationalize Auth0 and other authentication/authorization patterns across environments
• Partner with service teams to drive Golden Path adoption, unblock migrations, and turn platform investments into org-wide leverage.

• Use AI-assisted development responsibly to increase throughput and quality (e.g., faster iteration, better testing strategies, improved docs/runbooks).
• Help the org adopt AI tools safely and effectively by sharing best practices and patterns.

You Have:

• CI/CD, Release Engineering, (Buildkite/Backstage)
• ArgoCD, Kubernetes
• Ruby, Ruby on Rails, Bundler, dependency management
• Runtime/framework upgrades (Ruby upgrades, Rails upgrades)
• Auth0 (or similar IdP), OAuth/OIDC concepts, M2M authentication
• Terraform / infrastructure-as-code (nice-to-have)
• Observability, on-call/operational support, incident analysis
• AI-assisted development (Cursor, Claude Code) and best-practice sharing
• Working experience in a PAAS environment
