The role

Health can't wait.

Not for symptoms to get worse. Not for a six‑month appointment. Not for a system to catch up. But that's exactly how healthcare works today. You wait, until you can't.

Alan exists to end the wait.

Health is a universal right, and we believe this right can only become real when it's coupled with prevention. We need to stop treating health as something we repair and start treating it as something we build, every day. It's not solely a question of willpower. It's the healthcare system itself that needs to work for everyone, in a sustainable way.

So we are building the new standard in prevention insurance. Alan is the first company that integrates insurance, prevention, and care into a single, acclaimed user experience.

We are on an incredible journey to build a global leading company, with a unique culture. We already partner with 40K+ companies of all sizes, serving more than 1M+ members, and have reached €800M+ in ARR.

Prevention as the new norm. That's what we're building with our team of 1000+ people. If it speaks to you: we're hiring across France, Spain, Belgium, and Canada. And beyond.

⭐ The Product Platform Area

We enable product crews to move faster by providing reliable, reusable, and simple internal services. We encapsulate complexity, expose clear interfaces, and build mature, long-term building blocks.

Our focus is on building reusable internal capabilities that power multiple product flows:

  • Core Services: APIs & systems like Payment, Messaging, Document Processing, Pricing Engine

  • Shared Platforms: Centralized services (e.g. AI Platform) with strong adoption across areas.

  • Operational Tooling: Dashboards and automation that support reliability, observability, and scalability.

  • Foundational User Experience - Ensure quality and consistency of the UX through shared layout systems, navigation, reusable UI components

Our role is to empower product teams, reducing their cognitive load.

  • High Leverage: Your work is multiplied across the entire company - adoption & reliability is our main KPIs.

  • Complex Problems: Multi-country services, abstraction design, and adoption challenges.

  • Platform Mindset: You'll build services like a product, with product teams as your customers.

  • Ownership: You'll influence product direction, mentor engineers, and shape Alan's internal platform for years to come.

You'll work closely with product crews across all Alan areas, as well as with our Architecture Group and Tech Foundation Area, making sure our systems scale globally and align with long-term technical strategy

What you'll do

  • Your work will be used daily by hundreds of product builders across Alan.

  • You'll shape reusable building blocks that make it faster and safer to launch products across multiple countries.

  • By improving adoption of our services, you'll directly improve product velocity, consistency, and member experience.

How you'll work

🌍 How we work

  • Location: You must be legally eligible to work in France, Belgium, or Spain.

  • Remote work: We offer remote work flexibility, but we value in-person collaboration

The Stack

Python/Flask, React, PostgreSQL in a monorepo. We deploy daily and believe in distributed ownership - you build it, you own it.
