Job Description:

You'll join a team building the collaboration layer that lets clinicians work together to deliver better patient care - from small clinics to major hospital networks. Your work powers direct sharing, role-based access, and fine-grained permissions using cutting-edge technology inspired by Project Zanzibar. Every feature you ship keeps patient data safe while removing the friction that slows clinical teams down.

Job Responsibility:

Lead feature development end-to-end: Own the delivery of collaboration and sharing features—from technical design through to production—that enable clinical teams to work together more effectively
Build the permissions layer clinicians depend on: Implement granular access controls, session sharing, and role- or relationship-based capabilities using our Fine-Grained Authorization (FGA) infrastructure
Ship with pragmatism: Make smart trade-offs between scope, speed, and quality—delivering incremental value to customers while keeping the architecture clean
Collaborate across product and engineering: Partner closely with PM, design, and other engineers to translate clinical workflows into technical solutions that actually get used
Set the technical direction for your domain: Drive decisions on approach, tooling, and implementation patterns for the collaboration team
Mentor and uplevel teammates: Share context, review code, and help less experienced engineers grow through pairing and feedback

Requirements:

Strong full-stack or backend experience (Python & TypeScript preferred)
Track record of leading feature delivery independently—scoping, building, and shipping
Pragmatic engineering mindset: bias toward done over perfect, iterative over big-bang
Experience building user-facing features involving permissions, sharing, or multi-user workflows
Effective collaborator who communicates clearly with technical and non-technical stakeholders
Comfortable with ambiguity and fast-moving priorities in a growth-stage environment
Genuine interest in healthcare and improving how clinical teams deliver care

What we offer:

Flexible work with 3 days a week in the office
Additional paid day off for your birthday and wellness days
Special corporate rates at Anytime Fitness for Melbourne, Sydney tbc
A generous personal development budget of $500 per annum
Learn from some of the best engineers and creatives, joining a diverse team
Become an owner, with shares (equity) in the company, if Heidi wins, we all win
The rare chance to create a global impact as you immerse yourself in one of Australia’s leading healthtech startups
If you have an impact quickly, the opportunity to fast track your startup career!
