Key skills for this role
Hey, I'm Kalai, Engineering Manager at MedMe Health. I lead the Nova pod.
MedMe is the software layer that pharmacies across North America run their clinical services on. Nova is the pod that builds and owns the platform everything else sits on: our AWS infrastructure, deployment pipelines, observability, and the security controls that let us operate credibly in a HIPAA and PHIPA world. When Nova does its job well, every other pod ships faster and sleeps better.
Right now we know exactly what needs to happen and we don't have the hands to do it. HIPAA audit logging, real observability, and a serious cleanup of our platform tech debt (multiple CDK configurations scattered across repos, no consolidated view of our infra, no configurable deployment pipeline) are all scoped and waiting. At the same time, Nova is the team every other pod turns to for infrastructure support, so platform work competes daily with requests we can't reasonably say no to. Adding senior capacity is how we stop that tradeoff.
Our core platform team is in Indonesia, and hiring in EST gives us close to round-the-clock coverage plus a third experienced voice in the room when we're making architectural calls. You'd be joining a small, high-trust team with a clear backlog of work that matters, and a lot of room to shape how it gets done.
We're hiring a senior platform engineer (infrastructure and observability) for Nova.
In your first 90 days, you'll:
Take ownership of at least one major platform initiative end to end, most likely HIPAA audit logging, observability, or infra consolidation, depending on where the team lands when you join
Get deep enough in our AWS and CDK setup to make confident changes, and start untangling the per-repo configuration sprawl
Become a default person other pods come to with infrastructure questions, so requests spread across the team instead of concentrating

Longer term, you'll:
Own the deployment pipeline story, moving us from bespoke per-repo setups to something configurable and boring
Drive our security and compliance posture on the infrastructure side, in partnership with our Enabling Engineer for Security and Compliance
Help set the technical direction for the platform as our footprint grows across regions and cloud providers
We're looking for someone who brings:
Real seniority. You've operated production infrastructure at scale, you've been on call for it, and you've made the mistakes already
Strong Terraform experience. This is non-negotiable for us
Hands-on AWS CDK experience, ideally in TypeScript
A working base in EST or close to it, so you overlap with both our Canadian team and our platform engineers in Indonesia
A bias toward accuracy over speed. We'd rather get infrastructure right the first time than move fast and page someone at 2am
Bonus points if you bring:
GCP or Azure experience alongside AWS, since our footprint and customer requirements are diversifying
Experience in a regulated or healthcare environment (HIPAA, PHIPA, SOC 2), or genuine interest in learning that side
Hiring manager chat with me (45 min). Context on the role, your background, and mutual fit
Live coding (60 min), in two phases. Phase 1 is a code review, phase 2 is writing code
System design interview (60 min). Grounded in problems close to what you'd actually work on here
