About the role
- We’re looking for a Senior Engineer to join Rula’s Infrastructure Core Services team—the team that builds the backbone of our mental health platform.
- In this role, you’ll take ownership of critical services that keep our systems secure, scalable, and lightning-fast, including authentication, authorization, event-driven architecture (Kafka), and other core components that every Rula engineer relies on.
- Your work will empower our product teams to ship with confidence by building and delivering high-quality internal tools, SDKs, and shared services that are intuitive, reliable, and widely adopted across the org.
- If you thrive on writing clean, tested, and thoughtfully designed code, and take pride in building infrastructure that quietly but powerfully supports everything above it, we’d love to have you shape the future of Rula’s engineering foundation
Requirements
- Experience building high-quality, user-friendly internal tools, SDKs, and/or engineering empowerment services tools, frequently used across an engineering org.
- A working knowledge of Kafka-based tools and/or an event-based architecture to ensure the current core Kafka library and CLI tools maintain and evolve.
- Experience building thorough, well-designed, and tested code, with a high level of personal quality control that leverages standard design principles and patterns.
- Experience leading projects independently and collaborating within the team and cross-functionally across the org.
- Experience with Authentication/Authorization integration and usage (OAuth, OIDC, PKCE, etc).
- Experience working in healthcare, credit card, etc industries where data privacy and security and system stability are a base-line requirement.
- Experience with Node, Typescript, Ruby, Python, or propensity to quickly learn new languages.
- Experience working within AWS tools.
- Experience working in Kubernetes.
