We are looking for a Staff Engineer to serve as a technical leader and force multiplier, tackling our most critical architectural challenges in data modeling, APIs, and platform scalability. You will directly impact our ability to scale, accelerate engineering velocity, and establish a culture of technical and operational excellence. You will be instrumental in a foundational architectural shift as we expand from acute care into assisted and independent living. This role is highly cross-functional: you’ll collaborate closely with product, design, infrastructure, ML, and QA to drive both the architecture we build and the practices we adopt as we expand from acute care into assisted and independent living.

  • Own the long-term vision and implementation of our core data models and internal API architecture, ensuring they are scalable, consistent, and well-documented.
  • Lead the charge on defining our next-generation data architecture to support new product lines and business models.
  • Collaborate with ML and Data teams to ensure data models support their needs for training and inference.
  • Make architectural choices that unlock velocity across teams, with an eye toward secure, reliable, and repeatable patterns.
  • Teach modern best practices for systems design, API architecture, automated testing, observability, and security.
  • Mentor engineers through pairing, code reviews, and technical design sessions, elevating the skills of the entire organization.
  • Improve engineering velocity by designing and rolling out a new, standardized API layer and automated testing practices.
  • Establish critical integration test patterns and enforce coverage.
  • 8+ years of experience in backend systems architecture, with deep expertise in data modeling, distributed systems, and API design (REST and/or GraphQL).
  • Proven ability to influence and lead technical direction without direct authority.
  • Excellent communicator who can articulate complex technical concepts to both engineering and non-technical stakeholders.
  • Passion for mentorship and a track record of elevating the technical capabilities of a team.
  • Problem-solver with a pragmatic approach to addressing technical debt while enabling new features.
  • Demonstrate a high degree of humility and kindness when working with others.
  • Experience with observability tools like Sentry and New Relic.
  • Experience with modern CI/CD practices and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform, AWS CDK).
  • Experience building systems that support AI/ML workloads, including data pipelines and API endpoints for model inference.
  • Familiarity with Model Context Protocol and experience designing or implementing protocols that standardize data exchange between multiple services.
  • Hands-on experience with secure coding practices, threat modeling, or cloud security audits.
  • Annual salary of $230,000 - $260,000 + equity + benefits (including medical, dental, and vision).
  • Flexible PTO.
  • Remote work options available in the US or Canada, with a preference for NYC.
