What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Software Engineer position at Metric Bio?
We’re partnering with a fast-growing healthcare AI company building production-grade software that connects advanced machine-learning models directly into real clinical workflows. This role sits at the intersection of full-stack engineering, cloud infrastructure, and data-intensive systems supporting clinician-facing applications.
You’ll work on systems that handle voice-driven clinical documentation, structured report generation, and backend services that operate at scale in a regulated environment.
What You’ll Work On:
- Build and operate full-stack services supporting clinician workflows and AI-powered applications
- Develop systems that transform voice dictation and model outputs into structured clinical reports
- Create workflows for drafting, editing, and final clinician sign-off
- Design and maintain low-latency, scalable backend services in the cloud
- Work with large volumes of structured and unstructured data, including metadata and model outputs
- Partner closely with machine-learning and infrastructure teams to bring inference into production
- Own services end-to-end: design, implementation, deployment, and ongoing reliability
What We’re Looking For:
- Demonstrated ability to build and ship full-stack systems in production environments
- Experience designing, deploying, and operating cloud-based services (AWS preferred)
- Comfort owning API-driven, data-intensive systems
- Experience working with distributed systems and production reliability concerns
- Familiarity with a modern backend stack, such as:
- AWS (e.g., EC2, S3, ECS/EKS, IAM, monitoring/logging tools)
- Python-based backend services (e.g., FastAPI or similar frameworks)
- Relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL or equivalent)
- Strong ownership mindset and sound engineering judgment
This team is not credential-driven - they value clear evidence of impact, technical depth, and the ability to own complex systems.
Nice to Have:
- Experience with report generation, document workflows, or structured text pipelines
- Exposure to ML inference pipelines or AI-powered production systems
- Background working in healthcare or other regulated environments
