What are the responsibilities and job description for the Backend Engineer position at Luma Health?

WE'RE LUMA HEALTH.

Needing healthcare can be hard — getting care shouldn’t be.

We built Luma Health because we are all patients. We believe it should be easy to see and connect with our doctor. To get the care we need, when we need it.

So, we’ve created solutions to fix this problem. Our technology makes messaging easier, scheduling appointments more efficient, and it modernizes care delivery from beginning to end.

 
The Role:
 
We're looking for an intelligent and agile back-end engineer to build and scale powerful, top-notch health tech software.
 
We’re a small, talented and efficient engineering team. Highly technical, scrappy, and love what we do.
 
We deploy with quick git pushes on top of a HIPAA-compliant stack, built with MongoDB, Node.js, Redis, RabbitMQ, React, and a bunch of other modern technologies.
 
 
What you will do:
  • work across the back end to build, test and ship products using our HIPAA-compliant stack: tools like Node 8 , RabbitMQ, ES6, React, MongoDB, Postgres, and Redis.
  • focus on scalability, security, and availability of all applications and processes.
  • work side by side with our product designers to think through features from UX to database access patterns.
  • prioritize our backlog. You'll need to communicate well and work with leadership when you’re stretched in a lot of directions.
  • develop new features that can scale to 1,000s of requests per second
  • develop and strengthen your skills through close interaction and mentoring from senior engineers
  • troubleshoot production problems quickly and sustainably.
  • optimize our current product to be able to scale smoothly
  • stay nimble in an agile environment.
Who you are:
  • relevant college degree or equivalent experience (3 year of backend experience and comfort with working with Node.js, and excitement about diving into the backend or data store as needed)
  • well-written, well-tested, high quality code to meet the needs of our team and company
  • a developer who can iterate quickly and fail fast - comfortable in a fast-paced environment.
  • detail oriented, organized, individual who is able to prioritize and balance multiple projects.
  • an individual with great communication skills
  • strong thirst to learn, especially at a start-up paced environment

What would set you apart:

  • prior work with A.I/ML/bots from a design, development and deployment perspective
  • knowledge of Java and SQL Server
  • startup engineering experience 

We Take Care of You!
