Get Access To All JobsAt Commure, we're building the AI Operating System for healthcare, the foundation that defines how care is delivered, documented, and financed. Our platform spans the full care journey: Ambient AI and Dictation eliminating documentation burden at the point of care, intelligent Agents automating patient and revenue workflows, and autonomous RCM processing billions in claims, all on a single AI-native platform integrated with 60+ EHRs.
Healthcare carries a $1 trillion administrative burden and we're at the center of transforming it. Today, 500,000+ clinicians across 500+ healthcare organizations nationwide trust Commure to handle $25B+ in annual claims and support over 200 million patient interactions. Our latest $70M raise at a $7B valuation reflects the confidence the market has placed in this mission.
Our team works directly alongside clinicians, not through layers of process, which means the gap between what you build and its impact on patient care is immediate. We move fast, deploy daily, and take full ownership from early thinking to production. If you're energized by hard problems, high stakes, and a team that holds itself to a high bar, you'll find your people here.
The future of healthcare is being built right now. Come deliver this transformation.

- Work closely with junior engineers to provide technical guidance and mentorship, helping them solve problems and ensuring high-quality code standards are followed.
- Drive the implementation of best practices for integration development, including testing, error handling, version control, and continuous integration.
- Collaborate with DevOps and QA teams to implement monitoring and alerting systems that ensure integration reliability and system health in production.
- Stay up-to-date with industry trends in healthcare technology, integration patterns, and emerging tools, continuously suggesting and applying innovations that can improve system performance and integration capabilities.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding STEM OPT Authorization as a Senior Software Developer
Verify your CIP code before applying
Pull your transcript and confirm your degree's CIP code appears on the USCIS STEM Designated Degree Program List. Computer Science, Software Engineering, and Information Systems codes qualify, but interdisciplinary or business-adjacent tech degrees sometimes don't.
Filter job postings by E-Verify status
Confirm every employer is enrolled in E-Verify before you spend time on an application. STEM OPT is void if your employer isn't enrolled, and many small software studios or early-stage startups skip enrollment even when hiring internationally.
Negotiate your I-983 training plan early
Get the I-983 signed before your first day, not after an offer expires. Senior Software Developer training plans need to name specific learning objectives tied to your STEM degree, so draft the technical goals section yourself to speed up HR approval.
Target employers with active H-1B filing history
Use Migrate Mate to identify companies that have filed H-1B petitions for Software Developer roles, so your STEM OPT runway overlaps with employers already set up to sponsor the transition before your authorization ends.
Cross-check your offered wage against OFLC Wage Search
Look up the prevailing wage for Senior Software Developer under your employer's location using the OFLC Wage Search before accepting. A wage below the DOL prevailing level can create LCA problems if your employer later files for H-1B sponsorship.
File your OPT extension well before your EAD expires
Submit your STEM OPT extension application at least 90 days before your initial OPT EAD expires. USCIS processing can take several months, and late filing eliminates the automatic 180-day cap-gap bridge that protects your status during an H-1B transition.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Senior Software Developer role qualify for the STEM OPT extension?
Yes, if your degree carries an eligible CIP code from the USCIS STEM Designated Degree Program List and the role directly relates to that field. Computer Science, Software Engineering, and Computer Information Systems degrees routinely qualify. Your DSO confirms eligibility and updates your I-20 before you file the extension with USCIS.
What does the I-983 training plan need to include for this role?
Your I-983 must connect your daily engineering responsibilities to your STEM degree, list specific learning goals such as system design, distributed architecture, or performance optimization, and identify how the employer will supervise your progress. Both you and your employer's authorized representative sign it. Your DSO reviews it before your STEM OPT extension takes effect, and you must update it whenever your role or employer changes.
How do I confirm my employer is enrolled in E-Verify?
Ask your recruiter or HR contact directly for the company's E-Verify Company ID or E-Verify enrollment confirmation. E-Verify enrollment is a legal condition of STEM OPT, and you're responsible for confirming it before your extension begins. Companies that complete federal contracts are often required to enroll, making them reliable targets, though you should still verify directly rather than assume.
What happens to my STEM OPT if I receive an H-1B selection during my extension?
If USCIS selects your H-1B registration and your employer files a timely cap-subject petition, the cap-gap provision automatically extends your STEM OPT work authorization through September 30 of the fiscal year the H-1B takes effect. You can continue working at the same employer during that period without interruption, as long as your I-983 training plan remains active and your employer stays enrolled in E-Verify.
Where can I find Senior Software Developer jobs at E-Verify enrolled employers?
Migrate Mate lists Senior Software Developer roles filtered for employers with E-Verify enrollment and H-1B filing history, so you can identify companies already set up to hire and eventually sponsor STEM OPT students. Searching there lets you focus your applications on employers who understand the I-983 requirement and have a track record of supporting international engineers through the sponsorship process.
