Familiarity with service-oriented architectures, CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), and monitoring/observability tools is also necessary. Strong communication, collaboration skills, and a pragmatic approach are essential.
The Senior Backend Engineer will design, implement, and maintain RESTful backend services and APIs for care coordination, EMR interoperability, and automation. They will partner with product, clinical, and operations teams to deliver backend functionality iteratively and write clean, well-tested, and maintainable code. The role involves participating in design reviews, influencing system evolution, and contributing to a high-impact team focused on thoughtful engineering and shipping value.
