About Foundation Health

Foundation Health is transforming healthcare through an AI-powered digital pharmacy platform that seamlessly connects operational infrastructure with high quality patient experiences. Our mission is to transform patient centric care by connecting fragmented infrastructure, optimizing care coordination, and removing friction from the patient journey.

This ambitious vision is only achievable with the dedication of the right team propelling us forward. We firmly believe that a supportive and inspiring work environment fuels creativity, transforming it into groundbreaking innovation. It is this very innovation that not only benefits our organization but also positively impacts our people, partners, and most importantly, our patients.

As Foundation Health is a brand new start up there is an ideal opportunity to join & help shape our evolving tech stack. Our strategy is to lean on managed services & serverless technologies to help deliver our platform quickly & in a scalable way, without the headache of managing lots of complex infrastructure.

We’re currently using the following languages & technologies:

• Node.js with Typescript

• SvelteKit

• Docker

• Google Cloud Platform services including:

  • Cloud Run

  • Cloud Functions

  • PubSub

  • Cloud Tasks

  • API Gateway

We’re looking to build a small team of highly skilled engineers that are looking for opportunities to own & deliver entire sections of the platform. This is a great opportunity for someone who is motivated by solving technical challenges & looking to help architect entirely new apps & services.

Because we are looking to build a small team, we are looking for candidates who are comfortable taking on ownership of the things they build. This means that it will be up to the individuals to ensure they are building things in a reliable, scalable, cost-efficient & compliant manner.

We want individuals who have great ideas and are keen to share them. This is a new team & a new venture so we will be building our standards & culture together. As part of this aim we want to ensure that we balance the best of fully remote working with in-person collaboration - preferably in Texas.

Note that this is a small team with a relatively flat structure, so we are looking for candidates who want to invest & grow their technical skills & it is unlikely we will have opportunities for growth in people management skills.

Below are our responsibilities, some of which might seem daunting but rest assured, these are responsibilities that will be shared across the entire team!

• Building large sections of functionality, even entire services. This is a small team & there’s lots to do so you won’t be doing small bits & pieces all over the place.

• Reviewing the code & testing the features of your fellow engineers. We’re all QA here!

• Providing 24/7 support for the things you build. Our goal is to prioritise stability & minimise the need for this but it is a responsibility that we will all share as a team through a scheduled rotation.

• Helping define & shape our tech stack, culture, standards & more.

We’re not concerned by formal qualifications so don’t worry if you don’t have a Computer Science degree. We are however looking for candidates with real industry experience. This is a senior role in a small team so the decisions you make will have wide impacts for the entire company. With that in mind we ask for candidates with the following experience:

• 9+ years of commercial experience in modern languages (Typescript / Golang / Rust / C# / Java)

• 5+ years of commercial experience with Typescript

• 5+ years of working on web APIs / services

• 3+ years working with a modern frontend framework (Svelte / Angular / React / Vue.js)

• Experience working with Infrastructure as Code technologies (Terraform, AWS CloudFormation etc.)

• Experience delivering large pieces of functionality as an individual contributor

• Experience working on containerised apps

• Experience working with serverless technologies (GCP preferred but not essential)

• Ability to work effectively remotely. We are a fully remote team & we believe this is the most effective model for us & it offers great benefits, allowing people to fit their personal lives more easily around their work lives; but we appreciate this is not for everyone so please only apply if you are comfortable working fully remotely.

• Experience working in the HealthCare industry

• Experience working in an eCommerce setting

• Experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP)

• Experience architecting new solutions

• Experience working with event-driven architectures & paradigms

• Remote-first: We’re a remote-first company and believe it enables better work-life balance and diverse collaboration. However, we are looking for Engineers who possibly meet up once a month or so in Texas.

• Collaborative culture: We value transparency, shared learning, and open communication across all levels.

• Comprehensive Health Coverage – medical, dental, and vision.

• Life Assurance Benefit.

• 401(k) Retirement Plan.

• Unlimited PTO – we trust you to take the time you need.
