Software Engineer, Internal Tools

About the role

Metriport is an open-source data intelligence platform that helps healthcare organizations access and exchange patient data in real-time. We integrate with all major US healthcare IT systems and tap into comprehensive medical data for 300+ million individuals. We've found product-market fit with multi-million ARR, 100+ customers (including Amazon One Medical, Color, and Strive Health), backing from top VCs, and years of runway. We're ready to scale.

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in a software engineering, automation, or internal tools role — ideally at a startup where you wore multiple hats.
• TypeScript proficiency: Our entire stack is TypeScript. You write clean, maintainable TS without hand-holding.
• React proficiency: Our internal operations tool is React-based. You can build and extend UI components to surface new workflows.
• Integration experience: Hands-on experience connecting APIs, webhooks, and third-party services. You deeply understand REST, OAuth, mTLS, websockets and other integration technologies and know when and how to use them.
• Security-aware mindset: You understand what it means to handle sensitive data responsibly — secrets management, scoped permissions, secure credential storage. You don't need to be told to think about this.
• Self-directed: You're comfortable working on projects where you're the only one tracking progress. You create urgency for yourself.
• Location: San Francisco / Bay Area (or willing to relocate).

Qualifications

• Nice to have: Experience building internal dashboards, admin tooling, or ops automation in a B2B SaaS environment.
• Familiarity with our tooling ecosystem: AWS (Athena, Lambda, etc.), Slack, GitHub Actions, Pylon, PostHog, GSuite.
• Experience with integration platforms like Zapier, n8n, or Make.
• Exposure to healthcare data (FHIR, HL7, PHI handling) — understanding the stakes is a significant advantage.
• Experience using LLMs or AI agents to automate workflows (prompt engineering, API integration, tool use).

Skills

• Automating cross-functional processes: many of our internal processes are still manual and error prone; you'll work with non-engineering functions at Metriport to automate away their friction within the company.
• Building end-to-end integrations: Designing and shipping integrations between our internal and third-party systems — from scoping the requirement with a stakeholder, to deploying a working solution, to making sure it doesn't break quietly.
• Improving developer experience and onboarding: Automating local environment setup for new engineers, improving CI/CD speed, reducing the time-to-productive from hours to minutes.
• Evaluating and adopting new tools: Researching integration platforms (Zapier, n8n, Make, etc.) and AI productivity tools, working with the Security team to assess their security posture, and rolling them out in a way that meets our compliance requirements.
• Reporting: Automating recurring reports by pulling from AWS Athena, REST APIs, and other data sources — so the team gets accurate data without manual effort every month.

Benefits

• Competitive equity + compensation package
• Full family Platinum health insurance, dental, and vision coverage
• 401(k) retirement plan + matching
• Flexible work from home or in-office
• Healthy lunches are complimentary when working in-office (and breakfast + dinners as needed)
• Quarterly company off-sites with the team
• MacBook provided by us
• Unlimited PTO (we work hard, but trust you to take time you need to be at your best)
