data models, APIs, system architecture, database performance, scalability, and reliability
. You’ll have meaningful ownership and the opportunity to influence technical direction while working alongside experienced engineers, product leaders, and clinical experts.
What You’ll Do:
Design and build
scalable backend services and APIs
using Node.js, GraphQL, and Java/Kotlin with Spring Boot
Design and optimize
data models and PostgreSQL databases
, including schema design, complex queries, indexing, migrations, and performance
Build systems that handle
complex clinical and operational data
with high standards for accuracy, reliability, and performance
Design GraphQL schemas and APIs for scalability, maintainability, and performance
Participate in
architecture, technical design, and code reviews
and help shape engineering standards
Troubleshoot complex production issues and drive problems to root cause
Collaborate with product and engineering teams to translate complex requirements into effective technical solutions

Preferred:
Prisma, JPA, database migration frameworks, healthcare/medical device software, medical imaging, computer vision, CAD/3D software, manufacturing technology, AI/data platforms, or other complex or highly regulated environments.
Healthcare experience is a plus, not a requirement.
We’re especially interested in engineers who have solved difficult problems involving

Why This Role:
You’ll be building technology at the intersection of
AI, medical imaging, clinical workflows, and advanced manufacturing
. The work is technically challenging, highly visible, and directly connected to clinical decision-making and patient care.
This is an opportunity to
own meaningful backend systems, influence architecture, and solve genuinely complex engineering problems
rather than simply implement tickets.
