About the role
As a Senior Backend Engineer, you will own the design, build, and production support of the backend services and APIs that power the care-delivery platform. You will define and scale core architecture for long-term reliability, take features end to end from design through rollout, and work alongside clinical, product, and engineering teams to unify fragmented healthcare services into a single patient experience.
The role is backend-heavy (about 80%), with occasional light frontend work. You will work a 1:00 pm - 10:00 pm IST shift to keep async overlap with US teams, from the Bangalore office on a hybrid basis.
Responsibilities:
- Build and maintain production-grade backend services and APIs in Java or Go.
- Own architecture decisions and features end-to-end, from design docs through rollout and on-call.
- Shape engineering culture and balance product velocity against tech debt.
- Work at a growth-stage company with real ownership and end-to-end accountability.
Requirements:
- 4+ years of professional backend engineering experience (5+ for the Senior title).
- Strong hands-on experience building backend systems at product companies.
- Very strong Java or Go, used in your recent production work.
- A backend-focused profile, with at least about 80% backend in recent roles.
- Experience with distributed systems, scale, high-volume or real-time data, or complex integrations.
- Demonstrated end-to-end ownership: design, rollout, on-call, and incident handling.
- A stable track record and long-term commitment to the roles you take on.
- Based in or willing to relocate to Bangalore, and able to work the 1:00 pm - 10:00 pm IST hybrid shift.
- Strong written communication for async collaboration with US teams.
Nice to have:
- Healthcare or high-compliance experience (HIPAA, fintech, insurance).
- Startup or growth-stage experience.
