Job description

Must have at least 3 years of recent Golang experience

MUST HAVE HEAVY SQL EXPERIENCE:

• Design, develop, test, deploy, and maintain scalable web applications using Go, and TypeScript, writing reusable, reliable code across the front end and back end.
• Build and debug containerized applications in a Kubernetes environment.
• Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, data engineers, and other stakeholders to understand requirements and translate them into technical solutions.
• Design and manage relational database schemas and queries.
• Apply secure development practices day to day: input validation, authentication and authorization patterns, secrets handling, and dependency hygiene.
• Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues across the stack.
• Use agentic coding tools such as Claude Code as a routine part of the development workflow: scope work for agents, review agent-generated changes, and hold that output to the same review, security, and quality bar as human-written code.
• Help build and maintain the test harnesses that make autonomous agentic coding viable: fast and deterministic unit, integration, and end-to-end suites, seeded test data, fixtures and mocks for external systems, and reproducible local and CI environments.
• Contribute to technical documentation, code reviews, and team knowledge sharing.
• Participate in an on-call rotation schedule for critical application support as needed.

Required Skills/Abilities:

• Proven experience as a Full Stack Engineer or similar role.
• Back-end development experience with Go (Golang).
• Proficiency building server-rendered front end TypeScript for client-side behavior.
• Strong proficiency in SQL and experience with relational databases.
• Experience building and consuming RESTful APIs and managing system integrations.
• Working knowledge of application security fundamentals (e.g., OWASP Top 10) and secure coding practices.
• Solid understanding of software development principles, design patterns, and best practices.
• Hands‑on experience using AI coding assistants or agentic coding tools in professional software development, with sound judgment about where they help, where they do not, and how to verify their output.
• Experience with version control systems, specifically Git.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and clear communication with both technical and non‑technical teams.
• Understanding of data security best practices and compliance requirements, especially HIPAA within a healthcare context.
• Ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities, and thrive in a dynamic, remote environment.

Education/Experience:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, OR equivalent practical experience.
• 4+ years of professional experience in full‑stack software development.
• Experience working in an Agile development environment.

Preferred Skill/Abilities:

• Experience with SQL Server.
• Experience with cloud platforms, such as AWS (S3, RDS, Lambda, etc.).
• Experience with GitLab is a plus.
• Experience with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and CI/CD pipelines.
• Familiarity with infrastructure‑as‑code tools (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation).
