You will partner closely with product, data, and engineering leadership to build resilient, secure, and scalable systems that meet enterprise and healthcare-grade requirements.

  • Collaboration avec les équipes produit, données et ingénierie pour garantir la conformité aux exigences de l'entreprise et du secteur de la santé.

  • Demonstrated success leading complex initiatives across frontend, backend, and/or mobile domains
  • Advanced knowledge of SQL (PostgreSQL/MySQL) and familiarity with NoSQL systems
  • Solid understanding of distributed systems concepts (consistency, caching, concurrency, fault tolerance)

  • Strong AWS experience (Lambda, SQS, RDS, DynamoDB, EC2, IAM, networking)
  • Strong experience designing and operating RESTful APIs and event-driven architectures
  • Experience working with mobile applications (native iOS/Android and/or React Native)

Experience with Docker and Kubernetes in production environments

  • Clear, structured communicator capable of explaining complex technical concepts to diverse stakeholders
  • Strong understanding of SDLC, Agile methodologies, CI/CD, QA automation, and DevOps best practices
  • Exposure to low-code platforms like Retool
  • Experience working with globally distributed teams
