Cloud-native Medicaid and healthcare administration platform for state agencies and health plans
Gainwell operates a mature, multi-cloud healthcare IT practice spanning 50+ years of federal Medicaid program modernization. The tech stack reveals a systematic migration away from legacy (Oracle, Java Swing, WinForms) toward cloud-native architecture (.NET Core, Azure, AWS, microservices patterns like gRPC and Kafka), now adopting Azure OpenAI and SAP RISE — indicating a push into AI-assisted claims processing and ERP consolidation. With 432 open roles (209 posted in the last 30 days) and heavy engineering hiring, Gainwell is scaling to handle high-volume claim processing and HIPAA compliance workloads across distributed state systems.
Notable leadership hires: Quality Management Director, Account Director, Director of RFP Services, Tech Lead, Manual Test Lead
Gainwell builds cloud-enabled technology and services for federal Medicaid agencies, state health programs, managed care organizations, and health plans. The platform addresses core public-health IT challenges: claim adjudication, provider management, pharmacy systems, compliance, and workflow automation at scale. Operations span 50 U.S. states and multiple countries (India, Canada, Peru, UK), with hiring accelerating across engineering, support, healthcare operations, and data functions. Internal pain points center on process inefficiencies, meeting SLAs in high-volume environments, and improving claim-processing turnaround — constraints typical of large-scale, regulated government contracts.
Primary: AWS, Azure, .NET Core, C#, ASP.NET Core. Middleware: Kafka, RabbitMQ, Azure Service Bus, Redis. Auth/APIs: OAuth, OIDC, GraphQL, gRPC. DevOps: Azure DevOps, GitHub, Jira. Currently adopting Azure OpenAI and SAP RISE; migrating off Oracle and Java Swing.
