Backend Architecture & Platform Services

• Design and implement secure, scalable public and internal APIs (FastAPI + async patterns)

 • Build identity-aware, role-based services supporting clinicians, administrators, and integrations

• Ensure high reliability and low-latency request handling with proper caching, pagination, and rate limits

• Apply distributed systems patterns: retries, idempotency keys, circuit breakers, backpressure • Contribute to domain modeling (DDD principles) for provider identity, specialties, compliance state

 • Define SLOs, operational runbooks, and automate recovery where possible

 Data Ingestion, Structuring & Quality Governance

• Engineer API-first ingestion, migration and synchronization pipelines (scraping only when legally permitted)

• Normalize structured & semi-structured healthcare data (qualifications, medical specialties, licensing authorities)

• Maintain deduplication, delta-detection and source-of-truth governance

 • Define and track KPIs for freshness, accuracy, coverage, cost-per-item

Search, Semantic Intelligence & Matching

• Build and optimize Azure OpenAI + pgvector similarity and reputation ranking models

 • Extend taxonomy- and embeddings-aware search for better clinician-patient matching

• Develop metadata inference to improve discoverability and quality

Secure Healthcare Integrations

• Partner with health insurers, job authorities, and telemedicine systems using standards-driven, consent-aware integration patterns

• Apply GDPR principles, auditability, encryption & secret management by default

Event & Batch Processing + Observability

 • Event-driven automation: Azure Functions / Container Apps / AKS jobs

• Full Observability using OpenTelemetry (traces, metrics, logs)

 • DLQ handling, replay, and resiliency testing

 Cross-Functional Product Enablement

 • Collaborate with Product, Platform, Data Science & Compliance stakeholders

• Enable exports, access control, onboarding flows and clinical validation processes

 5+ years Backend + Data Engineering experience in production systems (regulatory environments advantageous)

• Python (FastAPI, pydantic, async stack, httpx/requests)

• TypeScript for integration services, SDKs, and admin automation

• Azure production experience:

◦ Functions, Container Apps, AKS workloads

◦ Azure PostgreSQL / SQL, Blob Storage, Key Vault

◦ Monitor / Log Analytics

• PostgreSQL excellence incl. pgvector indexing & performance tuning

• ETL/ELT engineering, test automation (pytest), CI/CD, Observability

• Strong understanding of data privacy, GDPR, and secure data flows

Additional Skills

• Go for high-throughput microservices

  ◦ spaCy, Transformers, pdfminer, textract

• Healthcare interoperability: FHIR / HL7

• Developer Experience:

 ◦ GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, Docker

 ◦ monorepo workflows (pnpm/Turborepo)

• Operational ownership: “You build it, you run it.”
