About the role

We are seeking a Software Engineer with at least 5 years of experience to join Professional Education and Program Services (PEPS) at Intuitive. The ideal candidate will drive technical strategy, build scalable cloud-native infrastructure, and own complex systems end-to-end using our React/TypeScript, Node.js, and Python stack on AWS and GCP.

Responsibilities

• Drive technical strategy, architectural decisions, and long-term vision for PEPS applications and the broader Intuitive engineering organization.
• Own large-scale systems and multiple interconnected components, ensuring alignment and integration across departments.
• Build and manage cloud-native infrastructure on AWS and GCP, leveraging Kubernetes and Docker to support PEPS application scalability and reliability requirements.
• Design scalable, secure, and maintainable systems architecture with strong focus on reliability and performance.
• Establish and evolve CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows to accelerate platform delivery velocity and operational stability.
• Define and implement SDLC best practices, standardized workflows, code reviews, and quality assurance protocols.
• Develop, migrate, and maintain high-performance web applications using React, TypeScript, and Node.js, unifying existing Intuitive tools into the PEPS platform.
• Troubleshoot, test, and optimize core product software, applications, and databases to ensure stability and efficiency.
• Act as technical lead on major cross-functional initiatives, balancing deep technical expertise with system-level strategy.
• Mentor developers, facilitate technical discussions, and translate complex concepts for non-technical stakeholders.

Qualifications

• Proficient in front-end technologies: HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript with deep expertise in React (primary UI framework).
• Strong hands-on experience with Node.js for back-end services; experience building RESTful and event-driven APIs in a microservices architecture.
• Experience with database systems (SQL and NoSQL), role-based access control, and user session management.
• Solid expertise in AWS and GCP, including managed services (ECS/EKS, Lambda, Cloud Run) and multi-cloud deployment patterns.
• Deep understanding of containerization (Docker, Kubernetes), CI/CD pipelines, and observability tooling; experience integrating AI/LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, or equivalent) and building AI-assisted workflows.
• Nice to have experience with Python for scripting, data pipelines, or ML model integration.
• Mobile development experience (React Native, iOS, or Android).
• Hands-on experience building AI/ML-powered software products, including LLM API integration, prompt engineering, or embedding ML models into production applications.

Required Education and Training

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, or a related field.
• Minimum of 5 years of experience in web application development.
