Must-Haves
- Senior backend engineering experience (5+ years)
- Strong in Python or Node.js/TypeScript
- PostgreSQL and REST API design
- Solid working AWS experience: Fargate/ECS, SQS, Secrets Manager, CloudWatch
- Able to execute infrastructure-as-code designed by an architect
- Strong experience integrating third-party APIs and handling messy external data
- Healthcare EDI (ANSI 270/271) or clearinghouse integration experience
- Event-driven / queue-based pipeline experience
- HIPAA / PHI handling experience
- Terraform or AWS CDK
- Build the backend and integrations to the architect's design, including the HIPAA-AWS foundation (infrastructure-as-code)
- Implement the clearinghouse eligibility integration: build the EDI 270 request, call the REST API, parse the 271 response
- Build the check engine: scheduler/SQS-driven daily eligibility sweeps, pending-enrollment polling, and countdown logic
- Build and maintain the encrypted coverage data store and alerting
- Own integration-path testing end-to-end
- Work heads-down with daily standups, delivering to the contract that the front-end/automation engineer consumes
- Real ownership of critical systems — you'll own the integration layer and check engine end-to-end, not just a slice of it
- High-priority, fast-moving build — a small senior team shipping a production healthcare platform in weeks, not quarters
- Work with a strong technical architect — the design and infra decisions are set, so you can focus on building well against a clear plan
- Healthcare-grade, high-stakes engineering — meaningful experience with HIPAA-compliant systems and EDI integrations that's rare to get hands-on with
- 💵 5000 - 5500 USD per month — paid in USD, bi-weekly via Deel
- 🌎 Fully Remote — work from anywhere in Latin America
- 📄 Long-term contract — starting with a 6-month contract, then full-time
- 🏖 Paid PTO
- 🤝 Referral Program — earn a bonus for referring talent that gets hired
