Role
Who you are
- Experience with enterprise codebases and the ability to onboard into an established product
- 5+ years industry experience with large scale system
- Experience with DevOps and cloud provider, such as AWS, Azure, and GCP
- Hands on experience with Postgres databases and data model design
- Exceptional problem-solving skills and the ability to work in a fast-paced, evolving environment
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
What the job involves
- As we scale, we are seeking a Senior Fullstack Engineer to build the cutting-edge AI products, drive innovation, and shape the future of healthcare automation
- At Alaffia Health, we are looking for a talented fullstack engineer who is passionate about building modern web applications and scalable systems. Our platform leverages cutting-edge technologies to revolutionize healthcare administration workflow
- We seek someone who thrives on solving complex frontend and backend challenges, from crafting intuitive user interfaces to designing robust API architectures. You will have the opportunity to work with Typescript, React, GraphQL, PostgreSQL and latest cutting edge AI technologies while implementing features that directly impact healthcare organizations
- In this role, you'll be building the future of healthcare automation while tackling challenging problems in web development, system design, and cloud infrastructure
- Write code that captures the essential nature of the solution and is appropriately flexible, reusable, efficient, and adaptable to changing requirements. Provide high quality code review feedback and adopt approaches to foster effective and collaborative code review culture
- Strong awareness of the technologies used by the team and the ecosystem around these technologies and able to introduce new ideas to solve business and technical problems
- Is responsible for successful delivery of their projects, including planning, risk management, design, development, testing, rollout, and maintenance. Find ways to simplify application code/infrastructure and improve developer efficiency as measured by cycle time, ramp-up time, or other similar measurements
- Preemptively identify and resolve technical risks before they jeopardize the project. Resolve cross-team dependencies earlier to ensure the successful execution of the project
- Avoid re-inventing the wheel by leveraging other Alaffia Health solutions or off-the-shelf solutions with the possible trade-off in mind
- Responsible for designing the software or systems in the owned area and ensuring that they meet their design objectives
- Give quality feedback on designs written by other members of the team, asking probing, insightful questions that solidify choices and surface erroneous assumptions
- Effectively and quickly debug cross-module issues, and may intuit where bugs might lie due to deep knowledge of the libraries, platforms, and systems that the software relies on
- Create coherent designs with multiple components interacting across API or system boundaries; bugs do not creep in at the boundaries between components due to mismatches in expectations of what is technically feasible
- Capable of rolling out a component or major feature (and deprecating an existing system or feature) reliably - including appropriate monitoring, paging, etc are in place, and that failure domains are understood and characterized appropriately, avoid introducing toil and future maintenance work by proactively avoiding scaling issues and providing adequate documentation before large scale rollout
- For early stage products, roll out with an eye toward achieving learning goals untainted by poor quality and know when to make appropriate tradeoffs for “failing fast”
- Design clear success metrics and achieve those metrics consistently post-launch through the lifetime of the system or feature. For early stage products, those success metrics may be oriented around learning goals rather than usage goals, given the inherent unpredictability of achieving product/market fit
- Engage in listening sessions to increase learning to guide work/priorities
- Have a working knowledge of Alaffia Health’s strategy and organization structure to work effectively across the org and able to help other engineers to effectively collaborate effectively
- Collaborating cross functionally with UX, product, AI and business team to craft a feature-rich, modern web application
- Designing, developing, and deploying fullstack application using Typescript, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, React and Next.js in a production environment
- Building SasS app in the healthcare sector
- Building and deploying user facing AI products
- Implementing robust testing suites to verify the correctness of new and existing features using testing frameworks
- Developing observability frameworks that include logging and user activity metrics to integrate with Datadog and other observability tooling
- Leading and engaging in architectural decisions that enable scalability, maintainability and extensibility to support business growth and user needs
- Autonomous learning, self-leadership, and the ability to own system components while collaborating with other SME’s
