What the job involves
- A highly motivated and autonomous Senior Backend Engineer with a proven track record in production environments
- Our company is at the forefront of MedTech innovation, developing remote monitoring solutions that make a real difference
- The Heart Failure team is central to this mission, managing complex data streams to provide timely insights for clinicians
- While most of our talented engineering team collaborates remotely from overseas, our Product Manager is based with you in Paris
- We're looking for a Backend Engineer to not only contribute significantly to the design and development of our platform (using TypeScript/NestJS on AWS) but also to take a major role in deploying and maintaining our production systems
- As our key technical presence in Paris, you will be instrumental in enabling secure data access for the remote team in strict compliance with GDPR and EU regulations, acting as a vital bridge and local point of expertise. This is a unique opportunity to blend deep technical contribution with crucial operational responsibility
- Develop & Architect: In collaboration with your Technical lead, design, build, test, and maintain scalable, high-performance backend APIs and services for the Heart Failure data platform using TypeScript/NestJS
- Own Deployments: Take ownership of and continuously improve the CI/CD pipelines (GitLab CI) for the Heart Failure backend services, ensuring smooth, reliable, and frequent deployments to our AWS production environment (using Docker & Kubernetes)
- Ensure Production Stability: Monitor system health (Prometheus, Grafana, Datadog), troubleshoot production issues, manage incident responses, and participate in an on-call rotation
- Safeguard Sensitive Data: Implement, manage, and potentially execute secure processes for accessing and handling sensitive EU patient data, ensuring strict adherence to GDPR and internal data governance policies, often acting as the local gateway for the overseas team
- Bridge Teams: Serve as the primary technical liaison in Paris, collaborating closely with the overseas engineering team, the local Product Manager, and potentially other Paris-based stakeholders. Facilitate communication and provide local technical support/context when needed
- Champion Best Practices: Drive high standards for code quality, testing, security (OWASP), and documentation within the team
- 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
- Tools: we used Slack, Notion and Drive, and it is pretty cool

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 analyse 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 analyse 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.
