Job Description
Senior Software Engineer – Fullstack
Curology
• Lead the migration of services from our monolithic codebase to a distributed microservices architecture—designing for scalability, reliability, and long-term maintainability. • Design and build microservices that integrate cleanly into our broader distributed system, with strong attention to observability and fault tolerance. • Apply sound architectural patterns across APIs, database schemas, and event-driven systems—making decisions that won’t box the team in as we scale. • Anticipate where architectural decisions create downstream risk, raise them early, and bring a concrete path forward. • Deliver production-ready code at a high cadence—contributing meaningfully within the first 30 days and sustaining that pace as scope grows. • Write advanced, adaptable code that captures the core essence of the solution and holds up as requirements evolve. • Identify and resolve production issues—individually or as part of a team—and take technical ownership of the health of systems you touch. • Distinguish reversible from irreversible decisions and act accordingly: move fast where it’s safe to, slow down where it matters. • Serve as a technical partner in cross-functional settings—representing the engineering perspective to technical and non-technical audiences with clarity. • Work collaboratively with product, design, and data science to ship solutions that meet patient and business needs. • Communicate progress, blockers, and risks proactively—not at the deadline. • Mentor and coach mid-level and senior engineers—helping them grow their craft through direct feedback, pairing, and code review. • Role model high technical, cultural, and process standards: quality is the baseline, not the goal. • Continuously build and share domain expertise—turning what you learn into leverage for the team. • Actively use AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) to accelerate design, code generation, debugging, and documentation—with a clear point of view on where AI helps and where human judgment is non-negotiable. • Review AI-generated outputs critically before acting on them—take personal accountability for everything you ship, regardless of how it was produced. • Share what’s working and what isn’t with your team—AI fluency grows collectively, not just individually.
Job Requirements
- 5–7+ years of experience in a full-stack, frontend, or backend software engineering role delivering production-ready code (majority backend; full-stack a strong plus).
- Hands-on experience designing, building, and operating microservices in a production distributed system.
- Hands-on experience with AWS infrastructure and/or DevOps-related tasks.
- Strong programming skills in TypeScript/Node.js, Python, SQL, JavaScript, and React (or similar modern front-end frameworks).
- Experience with architectural patterns of large, high-scale applications, including well-designed APIs, database schemas, and event-driven architectures.
- Working knowledge of both relational (e.g., MySQL/PostgreSQL) and NoSQL databases.
- Experience working collaboratively with cross-functional teams including design, product, and data science.
- Proficiency with automated testing, continuous integration, and modern engineering workflow practices.
- Builder mindset: hands-on, willing to jump in, explore the unknown, and make things happen on ambiguous, fast-moving projects.
- Demonstrated AI fluency: hands-on experience using enterprise AI tools in your engineering workflow to accelerate design, code generation, code review, debugging, and documentation.
- Strong judgment in AI-assisted work: a track record of critically reviewing AI-generated outputs before acting on them, and a clear point of view on where AI augments engineering versus where human oversight is non-negotiable.
- Preferred:**
- Experience with contract testing (Pact or similar) across service boundaries
- Experience in HIPAA-regulated environments with PHI handling requirements
- Familiarity with saga patterns, Step Functions, or orchestration testing
- Experience with service-oriented or microservices architectures

- Experience with observability tooling as part of a quality strategy
- Familiarity with feature flag testing strategies (LaunchDarkly or similar)
- Exposure to mobile testing surfaces (iOS/Android) in addition to web
