About the role

What You’ll Do

  • Design and architect scalable, reliable platform infrastructure that underpins every product experience our clinicians depend on
  • Anticipate system bottlenecks and proactively re-architect key components before they create issues for our customers
  • Lead platform initiatives with high strategic value, accelerating speed of iteration while preventing accumulation of technical debt
  • Hold the codebase to a high standard and contribute to engineering processes that encourage shipping quality code with confidence

Who You Are

  • You have 5+ years of experience tackling challenging zero-to-one software engineering problems that have spanned multiple teams
  • You're comfortable working on a modern infrastructure stack, including cloud providers (e.g. AWS, GCP), containers (e.g. Docker), queuing systems (e.g. SQS, Kafka), and standard database technologies (e.g. Postgres)
  • You have a demonstrated ability to own execution of ideas from inception through to successful outcomes
  • You're willing to flex up and down the stack in order to take projects to the finish line
  • You are a low-ego team player who prioritizes co-discovering the best ideas, even if they're not your own
  • You value being a kind, encouraging, and supportive teammate
  • You thrive in environments with high levels of complexity, uncertainty, and ambiguity
