ABOUT THE ROLE

At Counsel Health, we've built a product that patients and physicians love on a fast-moving stack. As we scale, the surface area between "application code" and "infrastructure" is growing — and we need someone who lives at that intersection.

We are looking for a Backend Infrastructure Engineer who is equal parts software engineer and infrastructure engineer. You won't be sitting in a silo writing Terraform all day, and you won't be shipping product features in React. You'll operate on the critical layer in between: the CI/CD pipelines, the IaC that provisions our AWS environment, the backend services that glue our systems together, and the developer tooling that keeps a fast-growing engineering team productive.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

- Contribute to Our Infrastructure-as-Code: develop and maintain our cloud infrastructure using Terraform.

- Build & Improve CI/CD: Own our build, test, and deployment pipelines end-to-end. Your goal is to make deploying to production boring — fast, reliable, and automatic.

- Backend Engineering: Write production backend services and contribute to core server-side systems. You're comfortable writing application code, not just orchestrating it.

- Build Core Archetypes: Write production grade archetypes for new deployments, jobs, consumers, and workers. You’re comfortable building out an abstract base stream consumer or cron executor for widespread use.

- Developer Experience: Be the engineer who makes other engineers faster. Improve local dev workflows, reduce build times, eliminate flaky infrastructure, and build internal tooling that the team actually wants to use.

- Security & Compliance: Work closely with our security and compliance team to harden our infrastructure posture — secrets management, IAM policies, network isolation, and audit logging in a HIPAA-regulated environment.

WHO YOU ARE

- A Bridge Builder: You're equally comfortable in an IDE writing application code and in a terminal managing cloud...
