Skills
Must have
- Ownership and follow-through: design, ship, run, and keep improving what you build
- Experience running production infrastructure in AWS or another cloud with infrastructure as code, ideally OpenTofu or Terraform
- Careful execution: able to change production systems without breaking them
- Strong engineering fundamentals: networking, IAM, and debugging distributed systems
- Full-stack range: comfortable in backend services and can pitch in on the frontend
- AI fluency: uses AI coding tools every day or eager to learn to use them well
- Clear communication: explains technical tradeoffs and keeps people informed, especially during incidents
Nice to have
- Experience with Python, TypeScript, and React; Go is a bonus
- Experience running workloads on AWS, from serverless (Lambda, DynamoDB) to containers on ECS and Batch
- Experience with CI/CD (ideally GitHub Actions) and site reliability practices like SLOs, monitoring, and incident response
- Experience with Auth0 or another identity provider, and with OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect
- Experience with Stripe billing and subscriptions
- Experience building with large language models from different providers
- Experience in a HIPAA-regulated environment and interest in healthtech, genomics, or precision medicine

Platform Engineer
| Carmel, IN (Hybrid) | Full-Time
About
is an early-stage precision medicine company redefining how concierge, functional, and longevity practices deliver care. By integrating whole-genome sequencing, multi-omic data, and AI-driven clinical intelligence, our platform gives practitioners unprecedented insight into patient health before disease strikes. We're building the infrastructure for the future of precision health, and we need founding builders ready to shape it.
The Opportunity
This is a role for a builder who wants to own the platform layer Bioscope runs on: our cloud infrastructure, account and user management, the authentication and authorization that control access to patient data, the automated billing systems, and the pipelines that keep it all shipping smoothly. You'll work directly with our infrastructure lead and share ownership of all of it: building these systems, running them in production, and improving them over time.
The work is broad and often complex. In a given week you might speed up a slow deploy pipeline, set up nightly smoke tests in the cloud, add an express shipping option for practices ordering whole-genome sequencing kits, and figure out why one of our AI features keeps missing its prompt cache. We want someone who pays close attention to detail, works carefully, and is pragmatic about tradeoffs.
The team usually works from our Carmel office two to three days a week, so we're looking for someone who lives in the Indianapolis area or within a reasonable commute.
What You'll Do
- Own the Infrastructure: Build and maintain our cloud infrastructure as code, mostly in AWS, and keep an eye on cost, security, compliance, and reliability.
- Run the Core Platform: Maintain the systems behind practice accounts, their users, and how they log in, along with billing for our subscriptions and lab tests. Debug what breaks and extend them as the product grows.
- Keep the Team Shipping: Maintain our CI/CD pipelines so engineers can test and deploy with confidence. Fix the tooling that slows people down.
- Improve Our AI Tooling: We lean heavily on AI coding agents. You'll build, maintain, and improve the tooling around them.
- Protect Patient Data: We handle PHI. You'll design access controls, secrets handling, and logging with HIPAA in mind and help keep us audit-ready.
- Own Problems End to End: When a customer reports a bug, you triage it, fix it, test it, ship it to production, and follow up with the customer. You also review platform changes and cover for the infrastructure lead when they're out.
