About the role

  • Own the design and evolution of the core data model — domain entities, actions, and the audit trail that governs every automated decision
  • Build the data layer that AI agents read from and write to: expressive enough that models can reason over operational context, governed enough for healthcare compliance
  • Define how domain knowledge is structured, versioned, and queried — laying the groundwork for increasingly rich context, serving as the platform matures
  • Establish data contracts and APIs that give feature teams clean, stable interfaces to build against
  • Drive platform reliability as we double our customer base and traffic without degrading performance
  • Set technical direction for the data platform in partnership with the product, and feature team leads

Requirements

  • 8+ years of professional software engineering experience building backend or data infrastructure in production
  • Deep expertise in relational databases: schema design, query performance, data modeling tradeoffs
  • Track record designing and evolving data models in complex, growing systems
  • Experience operating production systems at scale, including incident response and reliability work
  • Hands-on coding ability in backend systems (Python-heavy environment, but language agnostic)
  • Strong reliability instincts: observability, testing, data integrity
  • Ability to make good decisions with incomplete information — e.g., designing data models when the domain is still being codified, and product requirements are evolving alongside AI capabilities
Benefits
  • Enjoy unlimited PTO
  • Fully covered health insurance (medical, dental, and vision)
  • Meal stipend
  • Health & wellness stipend
  • 401(k) matching
  • Stock options
