  • Lead the development of video communication solutions (e.g., video carts for patient consultation, mobile apps with real-time calling and chat functionality).
  • Ensure implementation of federated single sign-on (SSO) applications to enable secure and seamless access across platforms.
  • Leverage AI-powered tools to accelerate prototyping, debugging, testing, and deployment.

Team Building & Management

  • Build, mentor, and scale a high-performing, distributed engineering organization (U.S.- based and offshore).
  • Define career development paths and foster a culture of ownership, excellence, and accountability.
  • Partner with HR and recruiting to attract top engineering talent aligned with the company’s mission.
  • Provide coaching and mentorship to engineering leaders and tech leads.

Hands-On Contribution

  • Stay engaged with code, architecture reviews, and key technical tradeoffs.
  • Encourage experimentation with emerging tools, frameworks, and AI-powered engineering workflows.
  • Drive adoption of strong practices in testing, observability, security, and performance optimization.
  • Ensure best-in-class developer productivity through modern workflows, automation, and infrastructure.

Stakeholder Collaboration & Representation

  • Represent engineering at the executive leadership level, aligning priorities across functions.
  • Partner with Product and Data & AI leadership to align strategy, foundations, and innovation.
  • Clearly communicate engineering priorities, challenges, and successes to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
