About the roleOrganizations switch to ExaCare because their admission processes are broken. They rely on multiple outdated platforms and error-prone manual work to admit residents. This fragmentation wastes time and leads to suboptimal care and business outcomes. We're looking for a high-ownership Senior Platform Engineer to build and scale the infrastructure, backend systems, and internal platform capabilities that power ExaCare's products and engineering velocity.
What you'll do- Build and scale core platform infrastructure. Design and maintain reliable backend services, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, and internal platform systems that support rapid product development and scalable operations.
- Own production systems end-to-end. Develop and operate highly available distributed systems using TypeScript, PostgreSQL, AWS, and modern infrastructure tooling. Ensure systems are secure, observable, fault-tolerant, and performant.
- Improve developer velocity. Create internal tooling, deployment automation, developer workflows, feature flag systems, and platform abstractions that help the engineering team ship faster and more confidently.
- Lead reliability and operational excellence. Establish best practices around monitoring, incident response, infrastructure-as-code, testing, deployment safety, and system resiliency. Participate in production incident triage and continuous reliability improvements.
- Architect scalable backend systems. Design APIs, background processing systems, event-driven workflows, queues, and integrations that support complex healthcare operations at scale.
- Drive platform innovation.Evaluate and implement modern infrastructure patterns, AI-powered developer workflows, and scalable cloud-native technologies that improve engineering productivity and product capabilities
- Collaborate cross-functionally. Work closely with product, engineering, and operations teams to translate business needs into robust technical systems and platform capabilities.
What you'll bring- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or a related technical field
- 5+ years of software engineering experience with a strong focus on backend systems, infrastructure, platform engineering, or DevOps
- Experience building and operating scalable distributed systems in production environments
- Strong proficiency with TypeScript, PostgreSQL, and REST APIs
- Hands-on experience with serverless technologies such as AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and Google Cloud Functions.
- Deep experience with AWS cloud infrastructure and modern DevOps tooling
- Experience with containerization and orchestration technologies such as Docker and Kubernetes
- Strong understanding of CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, observability, and system reliability practices
- Experience designing secure, resilient, and maintainable backend architectures
- Ability to rapidly learn new technologies and independently execute ambiguous, high-impact projects
- Strong communication skills with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly across teams
- Bonus: experience working with LLM infrastructure, AI tooling, or event-driven architectures
