Role
Who you are
- This role is ideal for someone who excels at designing scalable, secure, and future-proof systems in a high-stakes healthcare environment, focusing on pragmatic delivery over unnecessary complexity
- Cloud Infrastructure: AWS (or solid GCP experience)
- Architecture: Microservices, with strong experience in Event-Driven patterns (e.g., RabbitMQ; Kafka experience is a plus)
- Primary Languages/Frameworks: TypeScript (Node.js, NestJS for Backend is preferred)
- Front-end (Nice-to-have): Angular
- Containers & Orchestration: Docker, Kubernetes
- CI/CD: GitLab CI
- Observability: Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog
- Seniority & Structuring Experience: Sufficiently senior to have significant experience in structuring modern, distributed architectures within high-growth/scale-up organizations. We prioritize experience leading the growth of cloud-native platforms over expertise isolated to very specific, monolithic, or single-product frameworks
- Sector Experience (Bonus): Experience in regulated environments is a strong asset (Healthtech/Medtech, Fintech)
- Education: Master’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent experience
- 8+ years of professional software development experience, including 3+ years in an Architect or technical leadership role on complex distributed systems
- Structured Pragmatism: You seek the optimal solution, not unnecessary technical perfection. You have a well-structured mind focused on concrete delivery (Product and Tech)
- Leadership through Influence: You are an excellent communicator and thrive in a "flat" model. A strong inclination for technical mentorship and change management through influence is mandatory, as the ability to align and gain commitment is central to this non-hierarchical role
- Tech Culture: Strong focus on Software Craftsmanship and code quality. You actively read foundational books (Pragmatic Programmer for example) and follow relevant industry news/blogs
- Strategic Focus: Ability to take a high-level strategic view while remaining grounded in delivery imperatives
- We are looking for an experienced Architect, but we know the perfect candidate doesn't exist. If you believe you possess the core required experience and strongly align with the Mindset (Pragmatism, Influence, Software Craftsmanship), we highly encourage you to apply. Your potential to scale the system and mentor the teams is paramount
What the job involves
- We are seeking a Software Architect to take a strategic and structuring role as the technical guiding thread for our growth
- Direct Report: Julien (Deputy CTO / Former Architect)
- Collaboration: Close interaction with the 5 Tech Leads and technical leadership
- As Software Architect, your core mission will be to provide the technical and strategic guidance required to scale our engineering organization
- Architectural Strategy: Propose relevant architectural solutions that optimally align technology, product/business strategy, and team needs
- Influence & Coordination: Act as the "guiding thread" across the company. You will collaborate closely with the 5 Tech Leads and their squads to align and coordinate major technical decisions
- Scale-up Management: Handle the challenges of scale-up, architectural alignment, and managing the transformation (from legacy to target state)
- Technical Expertise: Bring a new, sharp layer of expertise to the team, ensuring the consistency and performance of our microservices architecture
- Standards & Culture: Define and evolve engineering standards (Software Craftsmanship), and maintain an active and relevant technological watch
- At Implicity, you will have a weekly meeting with your manager, to help you succeed in your mission, and continuously improve your skills
- Each team works with quarterly OKR, to be crystal clear, fair and honest with your targets
- The annual appraisal is a shared exchange moment, focused on your development
- Our platform is built to be cloud-native and microservice-oriented
- Architectural Accountability: Own the design and evolution of Implicity’s platform architecture, ensuring scalability, maintainability, and robustness
- Strategic & Technical Alignment (Trade-offs): Define and defend architectural choices by balancing Tech vs. Business/Product trade-offs
- Security & Compliance by Design: Define and enforce architectural standards for data privacy, security (GDPR/HIPAA or similar), and regulatory compliance
- Mentorship & Enablement: Support engineers and Tech Leads in solving complex technical challenges and developing their architectural thinking
Application process
- 1st HR Contact with Astrid (Tech Recruiter) – 30-45 min
- Technical Speed Dating with Louay (CTO) – 30-45 min
- In-Depth Technical Test with Julien (Expert/Deputy CTO and futur manager) – 2 hours (System Design, Alignment) - On-site
- Meet the Tech Leads – 1 hour (Influence, Buy-in) - On-site or Remote
- Reference Check & Offer (usually follows within 72 hours 🤞)
- Depending on your availability, the recruitment process should last less than 3-4 weeks
Our take
The MedTech boom has seen many innovations through the 2010s, and Implicity, a remote patient monitoring and cardiac data management company, has definitely had a clear lineage of growth since its founding in 2016.
Implicity develops software to monitor and analyze the information from pacemakers and cardiovascular devices to aid physicians and healthcare professionals through all stages of a patient’s treatment. However, maintaining growth on one product alone is hard, especially with so much MedTech competition. Implicity remedies this with its other product, a data analysis platform that uses AI and cloud technology to analyze the devices linked up to its aforementioned pacemaker and cardio health platform. Implicity leverages this data for use in patient management, clinical studies, and R&D.
Playing both fields of MedTech has diversified the draw for hospitals and companies to Implicity. It continues to update and diversify the double offering via updates to its systems with the company hoping to exemplify the continued innovation that is key to MedTech company growth.
