Who We Are

Nava is on a mission to #fixhealthcare. Nearly 160M Americans rely on their employers for healthcare — yet the system is broken, bloated, and dominated by incumbents who resist change. Nava fuses deep benefits expertise with cutting-edge technology to deliver a modern, transparent, and affordable healthcare experience.

Founded by seasoned entrepreneurs and backed by leading investors, Nava is one of the fastest-growing benefits brokerages in the country. We’re the first to combine brokerage know-how with proprietary tech like HQ: our AI-powered benefits platform, designed to help HR teams take control of renewals, simplify strategy, eliminate spreadsheet chaos, and empower employees to navigate their benefits with ease.

In a $50B industry hungry for change, Nava is built to win — lowering costs for employers, delighting employees, and reshaping how healthcare works for millions of Americans.

🧠 What you'll do

• Own the roadmap spanning data pipelines, integrations, and internal APIs used by our product teams to build Nava’s suite of benefits applications.

• Drive integrations with HRIS, payroll, and insurance carrier systems to ensure consistent, trustworthy data across our platform.

• Define metrics and SLAs for platform performance, availability, and developer satisfaction.

• Collaborate with AI engineers to ensure Nava’s data infrastructure supports AI use cases and feature development.

• Think creatively about using AI to retrieve, transform, and clean data. Work with the engineering team to test and ship these features.

• Oversee data ops – Design process and technology improvements, with the eventual goal of automation (using either traditional methods or AI browser use) for the last mile challenges inherent to HRIS and insurance carrier integrations.

• Create “super fans” – Both internal and external users rely on our software for mission critical daily tasks. When we have data issues, import failures, and bugs, you will swarm with relevant stakeholders and feature teams to address these issues as quickly as possible.

We are excited to build that kind of team at Nava.
