About The Position

The client is a well-funded seed-stage company building a vertically integrated enablement platform for NP-led practices: software that reduces administrative overhead, improves cash flow, and gives clinicians leverage to operate sustainable businesses without corporate consolidation. They have already built the data foundation that connects to outpatient EHR and practice management systems and supports these workflows through services today. This role is about owning the technical vision that turns that foundation into scalable, self-serve products—and building the team and systems to get there. As Technical Lead, the candidate will be the architect and primary builder of the product engineering stack. They will lead a small but growing data and engineering team, setting technical direction while staying deeply hands-on. This isn't a management role that happens to touch code - it's a builder role that happens to lead people. The candidate will own the architecture that powers the customer-facing products: data-intensive applications that surface complex healthcare and practice management data through clean, usable interfaces. They will work across the full stack, from backend systems and data pipelines through to the application surfaces that clinic staff interact with daily. This role reports directly to the founding team and is ideal for someone who thinks in systems, builds with urgency, and gets energy from turning messy real-world problems into well-structured software.

Requirements

8+ years of experience building production web applications, with a track record of owning significant technical surface area.
Strong backend and data engineering instincts - you're comfortable designing systems that process, transform, and serve complex data at the application layer.
Experience building data-intensive customer-facing applications, not just internal tooling or pipelines. You understand how to make complex data usable and legible to non-technical users.
Proficiency in Python, Javascript and experience designing and building RESTful APIs.
Full-stack capability with backend as your center of gravity. You can build and ship frontend application surfaces, not just API endpoints.
Experience with cloud data warehouses and modern data tooling.
Some experience leading or mentoring engineers, with an appetite for growing into a more formal leadership role.
A product engineering mindset - you think about what you're building from the user's perspective, not just the system's.

Nice To Haves

Healthcare, billing, or claims data experience will meaningfully accelerate your impact. Similarly, experience turning internal tools or managed services into self-serve customer-facing products maps directly to what the company is doing. Experience with workflow automation or rule-based systems is a plus.
