Primary Job Responsibilities
Technical Implementation & Development
- Lead the design and architecture of full-stack systems (web front end, services/APIs, data layer and cloud infrastructure), ensuring scalability, security and reliability.
- Build and maintain shared frameworks, components, services and databases used across teams.
- Own CI/CD, observability, incident response and system resiliency for the services you deliver.
- Introduce and champion new technologies to improve development efficiency.
Product Ownership & Fast Delivery
- Act as product owner for the full-stack product area: maintain the backlog and roadmap, and write requirements, design specifications and acceptance criteria.
- Partner with UX, Clinical, Quality/Regulatory and Infrastructure teams to turn user needs into shippable increments.
- Drive fast product development: rapid prototypes, short feedback loops, feature flags and frequent, safe releases.
- Coordinate delivery across multiple epics and teams, managing scope, dependencies and risk.
AI-Enabled Engineering & Deployment
- Establish and champion multi-agent coding workflows across the stack (implementation, review, testing, documentation) with human oversight, guardrails and quality gates.
- Design, build and deploy AI-enabled features (e.g., LLM-based assistants, retrieval-augmented workflows, automation) including evaluation, monitoring, cost control, privacy and safety.
- Build the platform and pipelines that let teams deploy and operate AI components reliably in the cloud (containers, orchestration, model/service versioning, rollback).
Communication & Impact
- Present technical and product strategies to diverse stakeholder groups, and drive alignment on decisions across multiple teams.
- Mentor engineers across multiple teams as a technical coach and advisor; provide company-wide technical mentorship.
- Guide architectural decisions and technical direction.
