Remote Software Developer Jobs in Kennewick, WA (NOW HIRING)

**REMOTE OPPORTUNITY for Oregon, Washington, and Idaho Residents ONLY**

Adaugeo Healthcare Solutions is seeking a Software Development Manager to lead the Application Development team — a team of six .NET developers building and maintaining the custom applications, integrations, and internal tooling that support AHS and its affiliated entities, Praxis Health and Interpath Laboratory.

This is not a caretaker role. AHS is actively investing in AI-assisted development, and this manager will be expected to lead that transition — hands-on. The right candidate brings strong .NET technical depth, genuine experience using AI coding tools (including Claude) in their own development work, and the drive to accelerate what a six-person team can deliver by working smarter with AI. If you have been quietly building faster and better because of AI tools and you want to bring that mindset to a team, this role was written for you.

AI Adoption Leadership

This section is listed first intentionally. Driving AI adoption within the development team is a primary accountability of this role, not a secondary initiative.

• Model hands-on use of AI coding tools — including Claude and GitHub Copilot — in your own day-to-day work: code generation, review, refactoring, documentation, and problem-solving.
• Develop and maintain team standards for AI-assisted development: when to use it, how to validate output, and how to incorporate AI tools into code review and QA processes.
• Establish measurable velocity and quality benchmarks before and after AI tool adoption so the team can demonstrate concrete impact to leadership.
• Stay current on the AI tooling landscape and bring forward recommendations on new tools, models, or workflows that could benefit the team.
• Coach individual contributors on effective AI prompting, tool integration into their development environments, and building AI-native workflows into their daily practice.
• Serve as the internal subject matter expert on AI-assisted .NET development, partnering with the Director of IT on broader AI adoption initiatives across AHS.

People Leadership & Team Development

• Provide direct management for six .NET developers, including performance reviews, goal-setting, career development, and day-to-day coaching.
• Conduct regular 1:1s and team stand-ups; maintain clear visibility into individual workloads, blockers, and development goals.
• Foster a culture of continuous improvement, technical craftsmanship, and psychological safety — a team where people feel empowered to experiment, including with new AI workflows.
• Identify training needs and create development paths that combine traditional .NET skills with emerging AI-augmented practices.

Delivery & Project Execution

• Own the application development backlog and release calendar, partnering with the Director of IT and business stakeholders to prioritize work across Praxis Health, Interpath Laboratory, and AHS corporate.
• Ensure projects are scoped, estimated, tracked, and delivered with clear communication and appropriate documentation.
• Manage competing priorities across entities and escalate resourcing conflicts early and clearly.
• Use AI tools to accelerate delivery planning, technical documentation, and sprint retrospectives — and encourage the team to do the same.

Technical Direction

• Serve as a technical authority for the .NET application stack, guiding architectural decisions and code quality standards in partnership with senior developers.
• Evaluate and recommend AI-native development approaches: code generation pipelines, AI-assisted testing, automated documentation, and LLM-integrated application features where appropriate.
• Ensure all development practices meet healthcare IT security requirements, including HIPAA technical safeguards, PHI handling, audit trail design, and access control standards.
• Drive consistency in development standards, code review practices, and QA processes across the team.

Cross-Functional Partnership

• Act as the primary IT liaison for clinical, laboratory, revenue cycle, and operational stakeholders requesting application development or changes.
• Collaborate with the Infrastructure Manager and IT Support Manager on deployments, environment management, and production escalations.
• Partner with the Director of IT on roadmap planning, capacity analysis, and resource strategy.

Schedule: The standard work hours are 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM PST, with flexibility as long as core hours (8:00 AM to 3:00 PM) are covered.

Benefits

• Medical, Dental, Vision with In-Network & Custom Network discounts
• 401(K) with discretionary employer match
• Paid Time Off
• Free clinical diagnostic laboratory testing performed in house

Qualifications

Required

• 5+ years of software development experience in .NET (C#, ASP.NET, SQL Server).
• 2+ years in a team lead, tech lead, or people management role with direct reports.
• Demonstrated, hands-on experience using AI coding tools — Claude, GitHub Copilot, or equivalent — in production development work. Not just familiarity: you have integrated AI tools into your daily workflow and can speak concretely about how they changed your output.
• A clear point of view on where AI-assisted development is going and how to bring a team along — you should come to the interview with examples and opinions.
• Experience managing software delivery in a healthcare or regulated industry environment.
• Strong communication skills; ability to translate technical work to non-technical clinical and operational stakeholders.

Preferred

• Experience with HL7 or clinical data exchange (useful for cross-team coordination with the Interface team).
• Familiarity with HIPAA technical safeguards and PHI handling requirements in software systems.
• Experience building or integrating LLM-powered features into internal business applications.
• Exposure to BI or reporting tooling (SSRS, Power BI) in coordination with a data team.
• Background supporting multi-entity or multi-site healthcare organizations.

Physical Requirements: Manual dexterity for office machine operation including computer operations, stooping, bending, mobility to complete errands, or sitting for extended periods of time. Stress can be triggered by multiple staff demands and deadlines.
