Our technology helps teams spend less time on manual rounds and more time on the maintenance work that keeps buildings operating safely. Today, Hexmodal supports more than 180 health systems across 48 states.\nThe Role (also the Mission)\nWe are looking for a Senior Software Engineer to add implementation and review bandwidth to our application team. This role is focused on feature development across our Django/Vue platform, which helps 3,000+ healthcare facilities stay safe and compliant through our IoT device fleet.\nThis is an empowered individual contributor role. We’ve focused a lot on building process and automations to allow for our developers to move quickly and work independently, without being blocked. In return, we expect you to be very fast and productive on your own work, bring real technical depth, and learn without needing much dedicated guidance.\nWe believe in diffusing responsibility across the team: engineers today should own more of the process end to end, and ownership over parts of the codebase is both motivating and a driver of productivity. Within your first 4 months, you will be assigned ownership of one or more modules of our application, becoming the go-to expert for their design, quality, and evolution.\nYou will also dedicate roughly 30% of your time to code reviews, a direct lever on the whole team's velocity. This role reports to our Application Lead and is based out of our NYC office 5 days a week.\nHere are some ways you’ll make an impact (also Outcomes of the role)\nShip features end to end with high velocity and quality: scope, design, build, release, and iterate with customer feedback, with minimal oversight.\nWithin 6 months, be assigned ownership of one or more application modules, and act as their authority on design, quality, and roadmap input.\nDedicate ~30% of your time to code reviews, providing fast, rigorous, constructive feedback that keeps the team's velocity high and the codebase healthy.\nOwn production bugs and issues in your modules as part of the on-call/bug triage rotation, resolving them in a timely and structured manner and keeping affected users informed.\nImprove the performance and maintainability of the modules you own through targeted refactors and query optimization.\nRamp up on new domains and tools independently, freeing lead time for the rest of the team.\nCompetencies we are looking for in the right candidate:\n6+ years of professional software development experience, including 3+ years in a fast-moving startup or high-velocity environment.\nA track record of high personal output: shipping complex features quickly without sacrificing quality.\nStrong backend depth in Python. Django experience strongly preferred; depth with a comparable framework plus strong fundamentals counts.\nDeep PostgreSQL expertise: schema design, query optimization, indexing, and performance tuning.\nDemonstrated experience solving hard technical problems, such as scaling an application, large refactors, or performance bottlenecks.\nHighly independent: learns new domains and tools on their own and makes sound technical decisions with minimal guidance.\nStrong code review skills: thorough, fast feedback that improves code without slowing the team down.\nComfortable with operational ownership: debugging production issues and owning the fix through to resolution.\nProficient with AI coding tools as part of an efficient personal workflow.\nBonus Points: (Some nice to haves for this role)\nFront-end experience with Vue.js\nExperience with IoT devices and LoRaWAN\nExperience with AWS and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) in production\nExperience building compliance-related software\nWhy Hexmodal\nAt Hexmodal, you’ll work on real problems with real-world constraints and have meaningful ownership over the results. We’re a growing team that values simplicity, accountability, curiosity, and respect for the facilities professionals we serve.\nIf you’re excited to build practical technology that makes an important job easier, we’d like to hear from you.\nHow to apply\nClick the link below to apply.\nWe reserve the right to make use of any unsolicited resumes received from outside recruiting agencies and / or individual recruiters without being responsible for payment of any fees asserted from the use of unsolicited resumes.\nWe are an Equal Opportunity Employer.
