Role Overview
ID.me is seeking a Software Development Engineer II to join the Life Hub team, building the SuperApp's life-events experience — the surface that helps members discover and access the government, healthcare, and commercial benefits they are eligible for based on major life moments (turning 65, leaving the military, becoming disabled, and similar events).
This role is full stack: you will help build the data model and application logic that connects a member's self-asserted and verified attributes to eligible life events, use cases, and application resources, working across both backend services (Java, REST APIs) and the React/Next.js experiences members interact with. You will work closely with the team's senior engineers, Product, and Design to turn eligibility rules and use-case definitions into working software, starting with the team's Medicare pilot and expanding into additional life events such as retirement and disability.
