We’re looking for a Senior Backend Engineer who’s passionate about building scalable systems, owns their work end-to-end, and thrives in a fast-moving, product-driven environment. You’ll play a critical role in designing and evolving the backend that powers our health tech applications — used by real patients and clinicians every day.

You’ll collaborate across disciplines — from product and design to mobile and web — to deliver meaningful features that are performant, secure, and maintainable.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Architect and implement scalable backend systems using Python, Flask, and SQLAlchemy.
  • Design and optimize relational databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL) for reliability and performance.
  • Build and evolve well-structured RESTful APIs for both Web and Mobile clients.
  • Collaborate with frontend and mobile teams to define clean, maintainable API contracts.
  • Manage and scale infrastructure on AWS (ECS, RDS, S3, Secrets Manager, etc.).
  • Set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and observability (logs, metrics, alerts).
  • Write clean, testable, maintainable code — and uphold high standards through code reviews and documentation.
  • Investigate production issues, perform root cause analysis, and improve system resilience.

Requirements:

  • 4+ years of backend engineering experience.
  • Advantage: Proficient in Python tech stack.
  • Strong understanding of relational databases and query optimization.
  • Hands-on experience with AWS/GCP/Azure in production environments.
  • Deep knowledge of API best practices: versioning, pagination, caching, rate-limiting, error handling.
  • Experience working closely with Front-End teams to design intuitive and performant APIs.
  • Experience with CI/CD fundamentals and a test-driven mindset (unit, integration, performance).
  • Proven ability to debug, monitor, and maintain systems in production.
  • Strong communication skills — clear, collaborative, and proactive
  • Code ownership mindset: you build it, you ship it, you support it.

Why Join Us

  • Join a high-caliber, collaborative team building technology that genuinely helps people.
  • Work on a modern, clean tech stack with ownership over architectural decisions.
  • Move fast and have real influence on the product, codebase, and culture.
  • Solve real-world problems in a space that matters — healthcare, mobility, human lives.
