Who We Need
This Opportunity
We are seeking backend engineers who:
- Build and operate cloud-native platforms: hands-on with Docker, devcontainers, Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure-as-code patterns; comfortable working across AKS, Terraform/Terragrunt, and deployment pipelines.
- Build and own production services end to end: experienced in designing, building, deploying, debugging, and operating backend services in production, using async-first, well-tested Python and modern tooling such as
uv,ruff, andtyto deliver reliable, maintainable systems. - Think and build like platform engineers: grounded in modular architecture, separation of concerns, code quality, and pragmatic design trade-offs. You can translate product and AI platform needs into robust backend systems that integrate cleanly into a large-scale platform.
- Improve deployment and operational reliability: able to contribute to CI/CD template maintenance, deployment stage configuration, pipeline hardening, and production environment debugging.
- Bring a security and reliability mindset: experienced with dependency health, Snyk/CVE triage, library upgrades, token hygiene, OWASP practices, and security patching within SLA.
- Manage artifacts and dependencies responsibly: experienced with artifact registry workflows such as JFrog, Docker/PyPI proxying, GPU artifact mirroring, or similar dependency management practices.
- Have practical exposure to AI-enabled systems: familiar with LLM APIs such as OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, or equivalent, and able to contribute meaningfully to AI-powered workflows without needing to be an ML researcher.
- Understand agentic AI patterns: interested in or familiar with LangGraph, LangChain, MCP, A2A, or similar agent orchestration, tool integration, or interoperability patterns.
- Collaborate across boundaries: partner effectively with platform, ML, application, and product engineers to transform concepts into scalable, reliable solutions. You communicate clearly, share knowledge openly, and thrive in cross-functional teams.
- Demonstrate senior-level ownership: capable of taking services or features from design to production, mentoring peers, and making pragmatic trade-offs that balance speed, quality, security, and reliability.
- Act with purpose: applying thoughtful engineering and security-first principles to create systems that advance healthcare intelligence responsibly and at scale.
Key Qualifications:
- 5+ years of software engineering experience, with meaningful ownership of platform, backend, or production infrastructure systems.
- Hands-on experience operating cloud-native services in production, including deployment, debugging, reliability, and incident-aware engineering.
- Strong experience with Kubernetes, CI/CD pipelines, containers, and infrastructure-as-code tools such as Terraform; AKS and Azure Pipelines experience preferred.
- Proficiency in Python for backend or platform service development, including async programming, testing, packaging, and maintainable service design.
- Experience with modern Python tooling such as
uv,ruff, andty. - Security-conscious engineering experience, including dependency scanning, CVE triage, token hygiene, OWASP-aligned practices, and secure service design.
- Familiarity with LLM APIs such as OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, or equivalent.
- Familiarity with agentic AI frameworks or interoperability protocols such as LangGraph, LangChain, MCP, or A2A is a plus.
- Experience with artifact registry management, including JFrog, Docker/PyPI proxying, GPU artifact mirroring, or similar workflows is a plus.
- B.S. or M.S. in Computer Science, Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
