Our Mission & Culture

At Xealth, we're revolutionizing healthcare by leveraging data and automation to empower care providers (building on EHRs such as Epic and Cerner) to seamlessly prescribe, deliver, and monitor digital health for patients. We are a detail-oriented team, committed to maintaining the highest standards while moving with agility and impact.

We are a highly skilled, collaborative, and passionate group, applying our expertise to improve health outcomes for millions. We believe in shared ownership and are looking for a team player who is a self-starter and self-driven to pioneer the next generation of intelligent, automated cloud infrastructure.

This role offers a unique opportunity to join a data engineering team to advance our capabilities with data processing pipelines and our analytics product offering.

*This position is a hybrid role, working from our Seattle office. Please note - you MUST be a U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident to be hired*

What You'll Own and Deliver (Responsibilities)

As a software engineer on our data platform team, you will design and build scalable systems, write maintainable and well-tested code, and own end-to-end engineering quality across the services that drive Xealth's Analytics and Reporting Capabilities. You’ll apply solid computer science fundamentals to solve complex problems in distributed systems, data modeling, and data pipelines.

• System & Architecture Design: Design scalable, maintainable systems for high-volume data processing. Build robust abstractions and well-structured APIs that other engineers can build on with confidence.

• Data Ingestion: Ability to consume and process high-volume bounded and unbounded data, manage real-time data streams, and gather data from API calls and webhooks.

• Scalability & Maintenance: Maintain and scale large Data Lake Pipelines, ensuring high performance and cost-efficiency.

• Performance & Optimization: Profile, debug, and optimize systems for performance and cost. Identify and remove bottlenecks across distributed workloads.

• Unit testing & Quality Assurance: Write comprehensive unit and integration tests for data pipelines to ensure code quality and production reliability.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with product managers and EHR specialists to translate clinical user behaviors into rich, analytical datasets, unlocking critical insights that drive evidence-based improvements in healthcare processes.

• Documentation: Produce clear technical documentation — design docs, architecture decisions, and system references that keep knowledge shared and durable.
