Our Platform Engineers

  • Design, build, and maintain scalable infrastructure using Terraform, ensuring reproducibility, security, and automation across environments.

  • Develop and support backend services using TypeScript, NestJS, and Node.js, interfacing with MongoDB and Postgres databases to ensure performance and reliability.

  • Manage and optimize our cloud infrastructure on AWS, leveraging services like EC2, ECS, RDS, S3, CloudWatch, and more to support application and platform needs.

  • Build reusable infrastructure modules and internal tooling to empower product engineering teams and improve development velocity.

  • Own the full lifecycle of platform features: from design and implementation to monitoring and supporting them in production.

  • Work in a globally distributed, 100% remote team with asynchronous workflows and high ownership culture.

You Might Be a Good Fit If

  • You’ve worked in high-growth startup environments or similarly fast-paced, agile teams—and possibly launched something on your own.

  • You have hands-on experience managing cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and production systems, with a strong DevOps mindset.

  • You’ve built and supported web and backend systems using modern cloud-native tools and frameworks.

  • You’re excited by infrastructure as code, automation, and driving platform-level improvements that support other engineering teams.

  • You enjoy working deeply on technical systems but also communicate clearly and proactively with the team.

  • Talking to users or teammates to understand pain points and drive solutions energizes you.

Perks of Working with Us

  • Do meaningful work in healthcare—supporting real users whose lives are improved by your contributions.

  • Build platform capabilities that directly accelerate product delivery for a well-loved product with strong product-market fit.

  • Enjoy fully remote work with no “return to office” — we’ve been remote since day one.

  • Take advantage of flexible scheduling, a globally asynchronous team culture, and unlimited paid time off.

Our Interview Process

We structure interviews around the real-world work you’ll do as a Platform Engineer:

  1. Pre-screening assignment (Pull Request) followed by an initial interview.

  2. Technical Design Document (TDD) assignment + review interview

  3. Final hiring manager interview

We prioritize transparency and practical assessments over theoretical questions, ensuring our process aligns with your strengths and real-world experience.
