Our stack includes C#, Go, TypeScript, and React.* Proven ability to own the full software development lifecycle, from requirements and design through construction, testing, deployment, and production operations.* Strong understanding of the architecture, data flows, APIs, cloud environment, and operational dependencies relevant to the systems your domain owns.* You optimize for the right solution given real constraints, not the theoretically perfect one.* You create technical alignment across teams with competing priorities and make tradeoffs visible to stakeholders.* You hold a high bar without creating unnecessary process.* You translate fluently between business language and technical language, in both directions.* Enthusiasm for leveraging AI-assisted development tools and emerging technologies.* Must have permission to work in the US on a permanent basis.**Ideally you will also have*** Experience working in healthcare, another regulated industry, or an environment with complex data, security, and compliance requirements.* Experience leading through organizational change, scaling engineering practices, or helping a growing engineering team mature its operating model.* Depending on domain, relevant experience may include: + Healthcare data and integration standards such as HL7, FHIR, EHR, PMS, or PBM integrations; + Experience with GraphQL, event-driven systems, APIs, or data pipelines; + Design systems, accessibility, frontend performance, or enterprise workflow design; or + Infrastructure as code, containerization, observability, and platform engineering at scale.**Application Instructions**Please indicate which domain best matches your experience: Consumer Experience, B2B Products and Portals, or Backend Platforms and Services. Candidates may be considered for more than one domain.**What we have to offer*** The opportunity to grow alongside an early-stage company shaking up a big, old-fashioned industry.* Flexible time off, including 12 paid holidays.* 401k match plus 100% employer-provided medical, dental, and vision premiums.* Company contribution to Health Savings Account.* Stock options.Prescryptive is committed to fair pay practices.
