About the Role
We're hiring a backend engineer to help build and scale the core of the Graici platform. This role is critical to standing up reliable data flows, structured workflow logic, and secure integrations across healthcare and financial systems.

You’ll work closely with our frontend and platform leads to own server-side functionality, drive ingestion and transformation pipelines, and support a deterministic architecture designed for transparency and trust. We’re looking for someone who’s technically strong, execution-minded, and comfortable operating with autonomy inside a small, focused team.

Key Responsibilities
● Design and implement secure, scalable backend systems using Python and/or Node.
● Build and maintain data ingestion pipelines for healthcare (FHIR) and financial data (e.g., Plaid).
● Normalize and transform data into composable “data profile” abstractions.
● Building deterministic flow execution via custom rules engine and DSL interpreter.
● Design and expose internal and external APIs with clean contracts and strong typing.
● Collaborate with the team on schema design, integration testing, and rollout planning.
● Implement observability (metrics, logs, tracing) across services.
● Ensure auditability, reversibility, and schema versioning across the platform.
● Ship, test, monitor, and improve iteratively. Done is better than perfect.

Job Requirements
● 5+ years of backend experience building production-grade systems.
● Strong proficiency in Python (FastAPI or Django preferred) and/or Node.js.
● Experience with PostgreSQL and data modeling in trust-sensitive domains.
● Experience with ETL pipelines, event-driven architecture, or tools like Airflow, Step Functions, or custom DAGs.
● Comfort with containerized infrastructure (Docker, ECS/Kubernetes).
● Pragmatic approach to security, especially around PHI/PII handling and consented data flows.
● Clear communication, independent drive, and ability to move without hand-holding.
● Bonus: familiarity with healthcare data standards (FHIR), JSON-schema validation, or custom DSL engines.
