Job Description: The Role:

We are seeking a seasoned Staff Engineer / Technical Lead to anchor our Document Engineering team. This is a role for a seasoned software engineer who has seen it all—someone who can step in to offset the engineering manager on complex architectural decisions and systems-level work.

Key Responsibilities:

Technical Leadership & Team Strategy

Lead and Steer: Operate as the Technical Lead, managing technical deliverables, mentoring engineers, and collaborating with stakeholders to translate business needs into technical reality.
Systems Architecture: Take ownership of complex systems-level work. You will architect scalable solutions for document generation that integrate seamlessly with our data science and clinical platforms.
Shift Left Champion: Define and enforce "Shift Left" processes. Implement rigorous standards for static analysis, contract testing, security scanning, and pre-commit hooks to catch issues early.
Development & Tooling:

Greenfield Internal Tooling: Architect and build new internal tools from the ground up to streamline operations and improve team efficiency.
Python & Backend Mastery: Utilize deep Python expertise to build high-performance services. You will optimize existing backend processes and develop new libraries for tracing, logging, and schema validation.
Developer Experience (DevEx): Build and maintain developer tooling that supports the wider team, ensuring that local development environments mirror production as closely as possible.
Collaboration & Delivery:

Stakeholder Management: Act as a bridge between technical and non-technical stakeholders, ensuring clear communication of timelines, blockers, and technical feasibility.
Quality & Compliance: Lead efforts in ensuring all document generation processes comply with healthcare regulations (HIPAA), maintaining strict data privacy and security standards.
Required Qualifications:

10+ Years of Systems & Software Experience: You must have at least a decade of professional experience in software engineering with a specific focus on backend systems, infrastructure, and architecture. This is a strict requirement.
Systems-Level Expertise: Proven history of systems-level work, including infrastructure, networking, and performance tuning. You understand the "plumbing" of the cloud, not just the application layer.
Python Authority: Deep, demonstrable expertise in Python. You understand internals, memory management, packaging, and advanced typing patterns.
Technical Competencies & Profile:

Expert Generalist: A deep T-shaped skillset. While your primary focus is Python and Systems, you possess the generalist ability to jump into frontend code (React/TypeScript), infrastructure, or database optimization whenever the team needs unblocking.
Shift Left Native: You have strong opinions (loosely held) on software standards. You are experienced with CI/CD pipelines, linters, specialized testing frameworks, and ensuring "quality at speed".
AWS & Serverless: Extensive experience with AWS services (Lambda, API Gateway, DynamoDB) and serverless architecture.
Infrastructure as Code: Proficiency in managing resources via CloudFormation for consistent and repeatable deployments.
Security & Compliance Mindset: Experience working with sensitive data (healthcare/finance) and a deep understanding of secure development practices (OWASP, NIST).
Remote Work Requirements:

An established private work area that ensures information privacy
A stable high-speed internet connection for telephonic and/or remote work
Perks:

Joining Arine offers you a dynamic role and the opportunity to contribute to the company's growth and shape its future. You'll have unparalleled learning and growth prospects, collaborating closely with experienced Clinicians, Engineers, Software Architects, and Digital Health Entrepreneurs.
