Job description
You'll embed with our mobile team as their backend counterpart - building the APIs, services, and data layers that power the iOS and Android apps. Your work unblocks mobile feature delivery: when the app needs a new endpoint, a faster query, or a cleaner data contract, you're the one who makes it real., * Design and implement backend systems and REST APIs for a HIPAA-compliant patient portal in the behavioral health space
- Take ownership of complex features end-to-end - from architecture through deployment
- Contribute to system design decisions and raise the technical bar across the team
Requirements
- 5+ years building production applications on Python/Django or similar stacks
- Strong systems thinker: reasons about distributed state, failure modes, and long-term design tradeoffs - not just feature delivery
- Deep SQL and data modeling instincts - migrations, query optimization, schema design
- Distributed systems experience: async workflows, event-driven architecture, message queues
- AWS proficiency - Lambda, SQS, SNS, or comparable services
- Able to navigate ambiguous requirements, ask the right questions, and flag tradeoffs clearly
- Proficient with AI-assisted development tooling (Claude Code, Cursor, or similar) as a daily driver
Nice to have
- Prior experience in healthcare or other compliance-heavy domains
- EHR or third-party platform integration experience
- Appetite to grow toward technical leadership
