We are looking for a highly execution-oriented Tech Lead who combines strong technical depth with operational ownership and urgency. This role requires a technical leader who can take ownership of engineering execution end-to-end, driving delivery, maintaining momentum, ensuring accountability, and helping engineers move quickly without sacrificing quality.You will lead by example, staying close to the code, identifying risks early, pushing projects forward, and ensuring the team delivers reliably in a fast-paced healthcare SaaS environment. The ideal candidate is highly hands-on, learns complex business logic quickly, operates with urgency, embraces accountability, and uses modern engineering practices — including AI-assisted development workflows where they create real leverage.What You'll OwnEngineering Execution & Team AccountabilityOwn day-to-day engineering execution across projects and teamsDrive delivery momentum and ensure engineers make consistent forward progressHold a high bar for responsiveness, follow-through, and execution qualityProactively identify blockers, staffing gaps, delivery risks, and coordination issues before they impact timelinesWork closely with leadership to align staffing and technical priorities with business needsEnsure work is properly scoped, estimated, delegated, and completedPush projects through ambiguity and maintain execution velocity in a fast-moving environmentBalance speed, pragmatism, scalability, and maintainabilityTechnical LeadershipTranslate product requirements and architectural direction into practical implementation plansLead technical execution across backend systems, APIs, integrations, infrastructure, and frontend applicationsWrite and review production-quality code in Python (FastAPI) and ReactGuide engineers through technical challenges and implementation trade-offsEnsure APIs, data models, workflows, and integrations are implemented consistently and clearlyPartner with architecture leadership to provide implementation feedback grounded in operational realityMaintain strong engineering standards while remaining pragmatic and delivery-focusedBusiness Logic & Product UnderstandingQuickly absorb and understand complex business workflows and operational requirementsEnsure engineering decisions align with product and operational realitiesHelp engineers understand the "why" behind implementation decisionsIdentify areas where technical improvements can simplify operations or reduce support burdenAI & Engineering EffectivenessLeverage AI tools and modern development workflows to improve engineering productivity and qualityIdentify opportunities where automation or AI-assisted workflows can accelerate delivery, testing, documentation, debugging, or support operationsEncourage thoughtful adoption of tools that improve team efficiency without compromising reliability or securityContinuously improve engineering workflows, developer experience, and operational effectivenessInfrastructure, Reliability & DeliveryCollaborate on AWS infrastructure and Infrastructure-as-Code using TerraformMaintain secure, reproducible, and production-ready environmentsSupport strong CI/CD practices including automated testing and reliable deploymentsEnsure systems meet HIPAA and other regulated-environment requirementsDrive operational discipline around observability, deployment quality, and production reliabilityEscalate risks early rather than allowing issues to driftWhat We're Looking For7+ years of professional software engineering experienceProven success leading engineering execution in fast-paced environmentsStrong hands-on experience with Python, FastAPI, AWS, and distributed systemsSolid understanding of React and frontend architectureExperience owning delivery across remote engineering teamsStrong operational mindset with a bias toward action and accountabilityAbility to quickly understand complex business logic and domain workflowsStrong judgment balancing technical quality with business urgencyExperience improving engineering productivity, workflows, or developer effectivenessComfortable making decisions and driving execution under ambiguityExcellent communication and organizational instinctsWorking knowledge of Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform)Experience operating in security-conscious or regulated environmentsBonus ExperienceExperience in healthcare, fintech, or other regulated SaaS environmentsFamiliarity with HIPAA, SOC 2, or similar frameworksExperience scaling or managing offshore/distributed engineering teamsExperience improving engineering processes, SDLC practices, or delivery operationsExperience using AI-assisted engineering workflows in production environmentsExposure to event-driven or message-based architecturesThis Role Will NOT Be a Fit If You:Prefer strategy and architecture over execution and delivery ownershipAvoid accountability for team output or delivery timelinesNeed highly structured environments with constant directionPrefer working in isolation rather than driving team momentumAvoid difficult execution conversations or performance management situationsWant to stay completely out of operational or staffing discussionsMove slowly when decisions or action are requiredView AI tools as irrelevant to modern engineering workflowsWhat Success Looks LikeEngineers execute with urgency, clarity, and accountabilityProjects move forward consistently without excessive oversightRisks, blockers, and staffing issues are surfaced early and addressed proactivelySystems remain understandable, scalable, and reliable while delivery velocity stays highComplex business workflows are implemented correctly with minimal reworkEngineering standards remain high without slowing down executionAI and automation meaningfully improve engineering efficiency and delivery qualityLeadership trusts the engineering organization to execute predictably and responsiblyTeams consistently deliver outcomes, not just completed tickets
