About Current Health

Current Health is a leader in the movement to transition more healthcare into the home. We’re a technology company, but beyond our best in class hardware and software capabilities, we help healthcare organizations operationalize care at home and deliver excellent patient experiences through helping with the last mile of care logistics and services. We partner with leading healthcare organizations to advance home-based care in the US, the UK, and around the world.

More than doubling in size in the last year, we’re building a global team united in one purpose: helping people live healthier, longer lives by predicting disease and enabling earlier treatment. At Current Health, we seek to put patients first, solve problems with curiosity and creativity, pursue uncommon collaboration, and never stop growing. We’re a remote-first company, which means that everything from how we work, communicate, and socialize is shaped by tools and culture that prioritize collaboration and support independence.

What does a Software Engineer at Current Health do?

Product Engineering teams at Current strive to deliver end-end customer and patient outcomes vs. narrow features. They take care to evaluate where they can further the long-term technical vision, whilst having a bias towards action and customer/product value. As a senior software engineer:

You will work in one of our software engineering teams, building out our platform and product for use by patients and healthcare professionals.
You will build scalable, well-tested applications and microservices.
You will collaborate closely with other disciplines, including biomedical engineering, data science, electronics engineering and product science.
You will operate across the stack but will have significant back-end or data engineering experience.
You will lead technical designs and contribute to code reviews with an eye toward improving quality
You will help provide 24/7 support for the product, resolving live issues when needed
You will be responsible for a product engineering team delivering key objectives that enable the product to scale, directly improving healthcare provision across the world.
You will work closely with Product Management and ensure the team is accountable for the outcomes delivered. You will have a firm grasp on why the team is building functionality, for whom and the value it will deliver. You will also contribute to that product vision and strategy and likely have a strong natural motivation to do so.
You will be responsible of the impact of your team's work on other areas of the org, including longer term architectural viability of solutions, as well as opportunities for wider cooperation.

Our tech stack:

We recognise that our technology stack is unique to our context. We acknowledge that there will not be a perfect overlap between a candidate’s skill set and our technology stack. We value the experience of each member of our team and how that skill set can help shape our technology to deliver better outcomes for all of our patients and customers.

Our technology approach is to use the most appropriate technology for the job. We operate with a principle of building core IP, using existing solutions for everything else. We rely heavily on not reinventing technology and particularly on leveraging our AWS backbone and the managed services it can offer.

Our platform is diverse, and ranges from Embedded C on our firmware through Java and Python based microservices as well as Typescript / Angular, iOS and Android platforms for our applications.

Our data stores range from Postgres RDS instances, through to DynamoDB KV depending on the domain. Services are decoupled and largely event driven using Kinesis, SQS/SNS where appropriate.

Our teams take care with the reproducibility of our cloud-based environments and lean on Infrastructure as Code technologies such as Terraform to maintain our growing stack.

We operate an inner source contribution model for our software.

Infrastructure & Configuration: Terraform, Puppet, Serverless Framework / CDK

Languages: Java, Python, TypeScript, Go

Runtimes: Docker/Nomad on AWS EC2, AWS ECS (Fargate), AWS Lambda

Datastores: RDS PostgreSQL, Couchbase, DynamoDB, Elasticache (Redis), S3
