Key skills for this role
The Senior Software Engineer delivers meaningful business impact by designing and building scalable backend systems that power pharmacy operations, manufacturing, logistics, and regulatory compliance across Empower’s 503A/503B environment. Contributing to system design and technical direction within their domain, this role helps shape how mission-critical platforms grow and mature at scale. AI serves as a force multiplier—accelerating engineering velocity, elevating system observability, and enabling data-driven decision-making across the platform. This role demands strong technical depth: engineers who pair solid execution with sound design judgment, who thrive in ambiguous environments, and who consistently raise the quality bar within their team.

Platform Interoperability: Implement and maintain integrations across internal services and external regulatory systems using canonical data contracts and API versioning protocols; leverage AI tooling to detect integration drift and accelerate service onboarding.
Scale Engineering: Build high-throughput, low-latency backend systems for large-scale pharmacy and logistics workloads; apply AI-augmented capacity planning to maintain performance under peak demand without over-provisioning infrastructure.
Resilience Architecture: Implement fault-tolerant systems with observability layers—distributed tracing, structured logging, and anomaly detection—that surface degradation early; collaborate with SRE teams to support incident response and reduce recovery time.
Performance Optimization: Conduct performance analysis identifying bottlenecks at the database, network, and application tiers; use AI-assisted profiling to prioritize fixes and deliver measurable improvements in latency and throughput.
Technical Mentorship: Mentor junior and mid-level engineers within the team—elevating design literacy and code quality through structured reviews and pair programming; model rigor and learning agility that raises the bar for those around you.
Platform Velocity: Contribute to shared platform capabilities—CI/CD pipelines, reusable libraries, infrastructure-as-code—that standardize delivery; leverage AI-powered code generation and automated testing to improve team efficiency and output quality.
Strategic Influence: Contribute to technical direction and roadmap priorities within your team; translate operational complexity and regulatory requirements into clear technical recommendations that build alignment among peers and stakeholders.
Customer Focus: Builds trust through customer-centric solutions.
Strategic AI: Guides responsible AI adoption and adaptation.
Optimizes Work Processes: Drives efficiency with continuous improvement.
