About the role

  • The team operates at the intersection of regulated medical device development and fast-paced startup innovation, with a strong emphasis on quality, scientific rigor, and patient safety.
  • Your architectural decisions will keep the platform safe, maintainable, and extensible as our product evolves.
  • You will be raising engineering standards and architecture quality, serving as the final technical authority for our regulated medical product.

Responsibilities

  • Own the Platform Architecture: Serve as the final technical authority for the end-to-end software stack, spanning embedded firmware, in-field Linux devices, cloud data pipelines (AWS/GCP), and the clinician-facing web application.
  • Data Path Integrity: Design and maintain a HIPAA-compliant, production-grade data platform that ensures data confidentiality, integrity, and availability from the sensor to the cloud.
  • You lead by doing, setting the standard for code quality and testing.
  • Cross-functional execution: Partner with Product, Clinical and Regulatory stakeholders to translate product requirements, clinical performance goals and regulatory inputs into concrete, actionable technical plans, engineering specifications and development timelines.
  • Ensure that our software architecture, implementation and documentation support our clinical study needs and regulatory plans (e.g. 510(k) and De Novo).
  • 10+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 4 years serving as a Technical Lead or Architect for complex, distributed, and cloud-heavy systems.
  • You are the gatekeeper ensuring that design outputs (code) meet design inputs (requirements) and that our "move fast" culture never compromises patient safety and critical product functions.
  • Scale strong engineering practices across the team, including design reviews, code review quality, test strategy and technical documentation

Requirements

  • Proficiency in modern systems languages (Rust, C++, or Go) and Python.
  • Deep expertise in cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP), Infrastructure as Code (Terraform), containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) and observability (Cloudwatch/Datadog).
  • Demonstrated ability to make architectural trade-offs that favor long-term product flexibility and user experience.
  • Full-Stack Technical Mastery: Proficiency in modern systems languages (Rust, C++, or Go) and Python.
  • Product-Aware Mindset: Demonstrated ability to make architectural trade-offs that favor long-term product flexibility and user experience.
  • You know what "good" looks like.
