Summary

We are looking for a highly experienced Backend Engineer to strengthen the security architecture of a large-scale enterprise SaaS platform. The role involves introducing healthcare-grade data protection practices into an established business software environment. The ideal professional will have hands-on experience implementing HIPAA security requirements within a product that was originally developed outside the healthcare industry. Strong expertise in backend engineering, database security, distributed systems, and enterprise data protection is essential.

  • Engineer security enhancements covering database encryption, secure communication protocols, identity-based permissions, and application-level data protection.
  • Lead security modernization initiatives across interconnected applications, microservices, databases, and enterprise technology environments.
  • Plan and execute secure transformation of historical datasets, including identification, migration, encryption, and validation of previously stored information.
  • Convert regulatory security expectations into practical engineering solutions, reusable technical patterns, and development guidelines.
  • Strengthen backend architecture by implementing appropriate safeguards for sensitive information, including access monitoring, activity tracking, and secure data lifecycle management.
  • Work with engineering leadership to establish compliance documentation, operational procedures, security standards, and implementation guidelines.
  • Take ownership of complex technical initiatives, independently drive engineering decisions, and coordinate implementation across multiple development teams.
