What You’ll Own HIPAA & HITRUST Compliance Leadership - Own the design and implementation of HIPAA- and HITRUST-compliant systems. - Translate regulatory requirements into actionable engineering decisions. - Ensure continuous compliance, audit readiness, and rigorous documentation across the platform. - Lead risk assessments, security reviews, and compliance controls in collaboration with leadership. Technical Architecture & Execution - Architect secure, cloud-native systems in Azure + .NET 10, leveraging App Services, Functions, API Management, Event Grid/Hub, Cosmos/SQL, and Key Vault. - Design APIs and data pipelines for clinical and wellness data. - Drive all EHR integrations (FHIR, HL7, SMART on FHIR) and lab diagnostics connections. - Establish and enforce engineering best practices for performance, security, reliability, and maintainability. Long-Term Platform Ownership & Health Innovation This role permanently owns the health technology domain of Youtopia’s platform. After initial compliance and system hardening, your long-term responsibilities include: Health Data Ecosystem Stewardship - Define the long-term architecture for health and biomarker data pipelines, ensuring accuracy, fidelity, and secure storage. - Own the clinical and nutritional data models, evolving them as science and product needs advance. - Lead the creation and maintenance of a health-focused data lake that powers research, personalization, and predictive analytics. Wearable, Biosensor, and Lab Integrations - Build and maintain scalable integrations with labs, diagnostics partners, CGMs, wearables (Apple Health, Oura, Garmin, WHOOP), and emerging biosensor technologies. - Architect systems to ingest, normalize, and validate real-time physiological and nutritional data at scale. - Ensure bi-directional data flows are compliant, stable, and extendable. Nutritional Science & Decision Intelligence - Collaborate with clinical and nutrition science teams to encode emerging research into platform logic. - Lead engineering around nutrient scoring, metabolic modeling, and personalized health recommendations. - Develop infrastructure for machine learning that uses lab data, dietary patterns, and outcomes to refine recommendations over time. - Explore new ways to merge AI, biological data, and personalized nutrition to create industry-leading wellness outcomes. Futureproofing the Platform - Continuously evaluate industry trends in digital health, interoperability, and data privacy. - Drive innovative initiatives that enhance the intelligence, automation, and clinical robustness of Youtopia’s platform. - Ensure that all future product expansions—from blood panels to microbiome tests to genetic data—fit into a unified, secure architecture. Mentorship & Team Leadership - Mentor engineers on compliance, cloud architecture, and secure system design. - Lead or influence high-impact decisions across engineering, clinical, and product teams. - Set coding standards, reliability metrics, and documentation practices that scale with the company. Collaboration & Product Impact - Partner with product and design to ensure smooth, secure user experiences without compromising speed or innovation. - Play a key role during high-stakes sprints involving clinical workflows, diagnostics, or patient data. - Communicate system-level constraints and possibilities to cross-functional teams in a clear, structured manner. What You Bring Experience & Expertise - 7+ years in software engineering; minimum 2 years leading HIPAA/HITRUST initiatives. - Deep expertise with Azure cloud services and .NET 10 / C#. - Experience integrating with EHR platforms using FHIR/HL7. - Strong familiarity with HITRUST, HIPAA, SOC 2, and related frameworks. - Proven experience designing secure, scalable, audit-ready systems. - Background in systems handling sensitive health, clinical, or biosensor data. Skills & Attributes - Strong leadership, architectural thinking, and cross-functional communication. - Ability to break down complex health workflows into scalable, secure solutions. - Mission-driven mindset and passion for transforming health through technology. - Comfortable working in a high-velocity startup environment. Nice-to-Haves - Experience with LIMS or other clinical lab systems. - Background in wearables, nutrition tech, or biomarker analytics. - Experience with ML/AI in health or wellness contexts. Why Youtopia - Be part of a bold mission transforming health and longevity for millions. - Work with top-tier engineers, clinicians, and nutrition scientists. - Help build the foundational health ecosystem powering a generational company. - Competitive salary, hybrid flexibility, and long-term leadership opportunities. - Make a real-world impact every single day.
