Job Title: Sr. Software Engineer
How is this team contributing to Providence's vision
Our team builds robust, cloud-native platforms that deliver reliable, resilient, and high-performance connectivity across our hospitals. These platforms empower caregivers with seamless access to critical systems-directly supporting our mission: Health for a better world.
What will you be responsible for
- Design and implement high-performance, cloud-native microservices with a strong focus on Python (FastAPI), JavaScript frameworks, PostgreSQL, and scalable distributed systems.
- Architect and build end-to-end full-stack solutions using React/Next.js, modern JavaScript tooling, and Python-based backend services.
- Develop highly scalable, sustainable, and performant systems, ensuring low latency, reliability, and observability.
- Deliver well-tested features across multiple services and platforms using DevOps pipelines (GitHub Actions), containerization (Docker), orchestration (Kubernetes).
- Build APIs and integrate with internal and external systems following modern API design standards.
- Analyze, collate, and transform large data sets to solve complex, real-world challenges.
- Use engineering best practices to ensure maintainable, secure, and enterprise-grade software.
- Drive, own, and influence architecture, design decisions, and system blueprints.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams-architects, analysts, data engineers-to deliver solutions that enable business workflows.
- Work within a culture of continuous improvement, experimentation, and learning.
- Apply performance tuning, profiling, and architectural optimization techniques across services.
- Contributes to the evolution of AI-enabled engineering by exploringGenAI and Agentic AI application patterns.
What would your day look like
- Build and maintain Azure cloud-native and hybrid (cloud + on-prem) solutions.
- Develop enterprise-grade front-end applications using React/Next.js, TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3.
- Implement full-stack Python services using FastAPI, asyncio, message queues, and microservices practices.
- Design and maintain relational data models and schemas using PostgreSQL / SQL.
- Contribute to CI/CD automation, IaC, and platform reliability using GitHub Actions, Kubernetes, Docker, and monitoring tools.
- Integrate APIs, microservices, and third-party systems using secure, scalable patterns.
- Optionally, they contribute to .NET-based microservices where needed (secondary skills).
