Senior Software Engineer, Manager – AWS Developer (Digital Health)

We’re looking for a Senior Software Engineer, Manager (AWS Developer) to lead and grow an engineering team delivering cutting-edge digital health experiences that scale globally. In this player-coach role, you’ll combine hands-on technical work with people leadership, guiding the design and delivery of full-stack, cloud-native solutions on AWS in a highly collaborative, agile environment. You’ll help build applications that directly improve the lives of patients and healthcare providers.

You’re an experienced technical leader who thrives in a fast-paced, purpose-driven setting. You bring strong engineering judgment, a passion for coaching and developing people, and the ability to align teams around a clear technical and product vision.

What You’ll Do

• Lead, mentor, and grow a team of software engineers, providing regular feedback, coaching, and career development while fostering a culture of ownership, inclusivity, and continuous learning.

• Act as a Senior Software Engineer on the team: contribute to architecture, write and review code, and set the technical bar for quality and reliability.

• Own the technical direction and architecture for key services and features on AWS, driving alignment on design decisions, standards, and best practices across the team.

• Partner with product, design, and other stakeholders to define roadmaps, break down complex problems, and deliver high-impact solutions that meet user and business needs.

• Oversee the design, development, testing, and operation of cloud-native systems that are reliable, scalable, secure, and cost-effective, while still contributing hands-on to critical design and implementation work.

• Establish and enforce high standards for code quality, testing, observability, and documentation, ensuring that engineering practices scale as the team and product grow.

• Guide and improve CI/CD pipelines, deployment strategies, and operational practices, promoting automation, fast feedback, and safe releases.

• Collaborate with other engineering leaders to shape platform-wide architecture, shared services, and common patterns for AWS usage.

• Drive effective incident management and post-incident reviews, ensuring issues are resolved quickly and learnings are turned into systemic improvements.

• Contribute to hiring and onboarding by participating in interviews, defining role expectations, and helping new engineers ramp up successfully.

• Advocate for the engineering team within the organization, clearly communicating progress, risks, and tradeoffs to technical and non-technical stakeholders.

What You Bring

• 5+ years of professional software development experience, including substantial work on AWS-based production systems, with at least 2+ years in a tech lead and/or engineering management capacity.

• Strong proficiency in Python, with deep understanding of object-oriented design, clean code principles, and design patterns; comfortable reviewing complex code and guiding technical decisions.

• Expertise with AWS services and cloud-native architectures, including several of: Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3, SQS/SNS, EventBridge, CloudWatch, CloudFront, RDS/Aurora, and IAM.

• Solid experience with infrastructure-as-code (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation, CDK) and managing multi-environment deployments at scale.

• Strong grasp of RESTful API design, authentication/authorization mechanisms (OAuth2, JWT), and microservices / event-driven architectures.

• Practical experience designing and optimizing data models for both NoSQL (e.g., DynamoDB, MongoDB) and relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL).

• Proven track record implementing and improving DevOps practices: CI/CD (e.g., GitHub Actions, CodePipeline), Git workflows, Docker, and observability (CloudWatch, Datadog or similar).

• Deep understanding of testing strategies (unit, integration, contract, and end-to-end) and how to embed them into pipelines and team workflows.

• Experience leading or collaborating with teams that include front-end engineers (JavaScript/TypeScript, React/Angular), and understanding how front-end and back-end integrate securely at scale.

• Demonstrated ability to lead teams: setting goals, giving clear feedback, managing performance, resolving conflicts, and creating an environment where engineers can do their best work.

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to translate between technical and non-technical audiences and to align teams around shared outcomes.

• A degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience building and operating production systems and leading engineering teams.
