You will design and build platform capabilities used across multiple engineering teams, establish reusable architectural patterns, and help evolve a cloud-native healthcare platform operating at scale.\n\nO que vais fazer\n\nDesign and build large-scale, event-driven distributed systems, including orchestrators, worker services, asynchronous processing pipelines, schema governance, and reliable consumer patterns\nDefine and implement platform architecture around Kafka, including topic and partition design, schema evolution, idempotency, consumer groups, retry strategies, and production failure handling\nOwn and evolve API architecture across REST and federated GraphQL, establishing scalable patterns for schema composition, versioning, contract evolution, and API governance\nDesign and build reusable platform capabilities that enable engineering teams to onboard new services and data sources with minimal custom implementation\nContribute directly to production code, prototypes, reference implementations, and technical proofs of concept\nPartner with AI engineering teams to define reliable integration points for LLM- and agent-based capabilities, including retrieval, evaluation, guardrails, observability, latency, cost, and data-protection boundaries\nShape healthcare data architecture, including FHIR-based interoperability, terminology services, data-quality controls, high-volume storage, and analytical workloads\nDrive architecture and technical design reviews, documenting key decisions, trade-offs, standards, and reusable engineering patterns\nUse production telemetry, observability, and operational data to validate architectural decisions and troubleshoot complex distributed-system behavior\nEstablish architectural patterns for security, identity, multi-tenancy, scalability, resilience, and protected health data\nMentor senior engineers and technical leads in system design, distributed-systems engineering, and architectural decision-making\nCollaborate closely with U.S.-based engineering, product, data, security, and AI stakeholders while working effectively across geographically distributed teams\nPromote an AI-enabled engineering approach, using modern AI development tools where they improve engineering velocity, quality, analysis, documentation, testing, or architectural exploration\n\nO que é pedido\n\n8+ years of software engineering experience, with significant experience designing and operating large-scale distributed systems\nStrong hands-on backend engineering skills in Python and/or another modern backend language, with the ability to work effectively across a polyglot environment and solid experience building production-grade services and APIs\nProven experience designing event-driven architectures, ideally using Apache Kafka or comparable distributed messaging technologies\nDeep understanding of distributed-system fundamentals, including partitioning, idempotency, back-pressure, eventual consistency, failure recovery, and consistency/availability trade-offs\nStrong experience designing and evolving REST APIs and GraphQL-based architectures, including schema design, versioning, composition, and contract governance\nStrong system-design skills and demonstrated ownership of complex systems from architecture through implementation and production operation\nExperience with cloud-native architectures on AWS, including Kubernetes-based environments, observability, scalability, resilience, and production operations\nStrong data architecture fundamentals: data modeling, storage strategies, query optimization, and designing systems for high-volume transactional and analytical workloads\nPractical experience with modern data and storage technologies such as MongoDB, ClickHouse, Databricks, Spark, or comparable platforms\nUnderstanding of identity and security concepts such as OIDC, OAuth/token exchange, authorization, multi-tenancy, and data isolation\nAbility to work effectively across a polyglot technology environment and make architectural decisions based on system requirements rather than technology preference\nStrong communication and technical leadership skills, including the ability to drive architecture discussions, technical design reviews, and engineering standards across multiple teams\nStrong hands-on engineering mindset—able and willing to build production code, prototypes, reference implementations, and tooling rather than operating exclusively at an architectural level\nProfessional English sufficient for direct collaboration with U.S.-based engineering and product stakeholders\n\nValorizado\n\nExperience with FHIR, HL7, EHR integrations, healthcare interoperability, or digital health platforms\nExperience designing systems handling PHI/PII or other regulated and sensitive data\nFamiliarity with healthcare security and compliance requirements, including HIPAA-related architectural considerations\nExperience with Java/Spring Boot, TypeScript/Node.js, or other languages used in large-scale backend ecosystems\nExperience with federated GraphQL platforms such as WunderGraph Cosmo, Apollo Federation, or similar technologies\nPractical experience integrating LLMs or AI agents into production systems, including retrieval, evaluation, guardrails, observability, latency, and cost considerations\nExperience with AI-assisted software engineering tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Cursor, or similar tools, and an ability to use them effectively throughout the engineering lifecycle\nExperience establishing reusable platform patterns, architecture standards, or internal developer platforms used by multiple engineering teams\nPrevious Staff/Principal-level experience mentoring senior engineers and influencing architecture beyond a single team\n\nResumo organizado por IA a partir do anúncio original.
