In this role, you'll help design and build cloud-native applications and services that power digital health experiences used at scale. You'll work closely with engineering, product, UX, quality, and security teams to solve meaningful customer and business problems through simple, reliable, and scalable software. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys owning complex challenges from concept through production. You'll influence technical direction, mentor fellow engineers, and help raise the engineering bar across the team. You'll also play a key role in exploring how AI can improve the way software is designed, developed, tested, and operated, helping the broader team adopt practical and effective engineering practices. If you're passionate about building great products, solving real-world problems, and continuously learning in a rapidly changing technology landscape, we'd love to hear from you. Even if you don't meet every requirement below, we encourage you to apply if you believe you'd be a strong fit for the role. What You'll Do * Design, build, test, deploy, and operate reliable, secure, scalable cloud-native applications and services. * Own complex features and technical initiatives from problem definition and architecture through production and continuous improvement. * Translate customer and product challenges into clear technical designs and practical implementation plans. * Make thoughtful architecture decisions while balancing scalability, reliability, security, maintainability, delivery speed, and technical debt. * Use AI coding assistants, coding agents, and AI-enabled workflows to improve software development, testing, debugging, documentation, code review, and operational support. * Explore new agentic and automated development approaches and identify opportunities to improve engineering productivity and software quality. * Apply strong engineering judgement to review, validate, test, and challenge AI-generated solutions. * Build clean, maintainable APIs, services, and systems using modern engineering practices. * Establish robust testing, observability, monitoring, and operational processes for systems you own. * Diagnose complex production issues and drive incident investigation, resolution, and prevention. * Lead technical design discussions and communicate architectural decisions to both technical and non-technical audiences. * Reduce technical debt, simplify systems, improve developer experience, and automate repetitive work. * Provide thoughtful code and design reviews that strengthen both software quality and team capability. * Mentor engineers and support their growth in technical problem solving, engineering practices, and AI-enabled development. * Collaborate across teams to solve problems that extend beyond your immediate area of ownership. ## Related Videos - [Why Your Best Mediors Never Become Seniors (And How to Fix It)](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2108-why-your-best-mediors-never-become-seniors-and-how-to-fix-it) - [Shifting Stress to Progress— Understanding DevOps to do DevOps Better](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/268-shifting-stress-to-progress-understanding-devops-to-do-devops-better) - [".Net is too slow" was not an option](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100176-net-is-too-slow-was-not-an-option) - [The Software Engineer 2030: From Coder To AI Orchestrator? - Patrick Schnell](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1825-the-software-engineer-2030-from-coder-to-ai-orchestrator-patrick-schnell) - [From DevOps to Scaled DevOps: How We’re Rebuilding Continuous Delivery as a Platform](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100018-from-devops-to-scaled-devops-how-we-re-rebuilding-continuous-delivery-as-a-platform) - [Developing the Rich Text Editor for DeepL.com](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1172-developing-the-rich-text-editor-for-deepl-com) ## Related Articles - [Top Characteristics of a Software Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/166-top-characteristics-of-a-software-engineer) - [How to Answer the Interview Question: “Why Do You Want to Be a Software Engineer?”](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/392-how-to-answer-the-interview-question-why-do-you-want-to-be-a-software-engineer) - [What is Software Engineering?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/289-what-is-software-engineering) - [Résumé-Driven Development: How IT trends affect the job market for software developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/59-resume-driven-development-how-it-trends-affect-the-job-market-for-software-developers) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Is Software Engineering Over-Saturated?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/418-is-software-engineering-over-saturated)
