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.
