About the Company
Orchid Software Solutions is a high-growth health-tech ecosystem. We build technology for the assisted reproduction industry, managing four specialized platforms:
- SeedTrust: The leading fintech/escrow platform for surrogacy
- Veratru (IDRE): A gov-tech platform for medical dispute resolution
- Gather Records: An AI-powered health-tech tool for sensitive medical records
- Orchid CRM: Our core journey management system
We are currently scaling from 50 to 100 people and tackling significant technical debt by migrating legacy systems (Node.js/Python) to a high-performance Go architecture.
The Role: Technical PillarWe don't hire task finishers. We are looking for Technical Pillars. This means you are a senior engineer who enjoys being hands-on in the code but also takes full ownership of the architecture. You are expected to act as a strategic partner to the business, helping us define the how behind complex features in a fast-paced, sometimes messy startup environment.
Key Responsibilities- Architect & Deliver: Build and own Next.js applications using modern patterns like App Router and Server Components
- Backend Evolution: Lead the strategic migration from legacy Node.js/Python services to Go (Golang), focusing on high concurrency and performance
- AI Integration: Design and implement production-grade AI features (LLMs/MCP) that solve real business problems, like automating user onboarding or medical record processing
- Security & Compliance: Maintain the highest standards for PII and HIPAA-compliant data handling across fintech and healthcare products
- Resilient Engineering: Navigate and refactor complex legacy codebases, moving from monolithic structures to scalable microservices
- Leadership: Mentor peers and contribute to technical documentation (ADRs), raising the engineering bar for the entire team
Qualifications- Seniority: 7+ years of professional experience building production-scale web applications
- US Startup Experience: Proven track record of working directly with US-based startups and stakeholders. Understanding the cultural and delivery standards of the US market is mandatory
- Next.js Mastery: Deep experience with App Router, Server Components, and TypeScript
- Backend & Cloud: Proficiency in Node.js/TypeScript is required, and experience (or a strong desire to master) Go is critical for our roadmap
- Testing: Strong belief in TDD and high-quality testing patterns
- Communication: Exceptional English (C1+) with a direct, spontaneous, and transparent communication style
- Ownership Mindset: You don't wait for a ticket to be perfect; you ask the right questions and drive the solution to completion
Why Join Us- Real Impact: You will have a direct influence on the technical roadmap and architecture of four distinct products
- Modern Stack: Work with Next.js, Go, and AI in a culture that values engineering excellence
- Meaningful Purpose: Your work helps families navigate the complex journey of assisted reproduction
