**About Our Team**
We’re a team working on a project that we hope will make a real difference: making healthcare more affordable and easier to access. Our goal is to build a platform that brings together insurance and medical care into one simple app.
We’re looking for a thoughtful, hands-on person to help guide our development team based in Tbilisi. You’d be someone who enjoys both mentoring a team and getting involved in the technical details yourself.
**A glimpse into your role**
We see this role as a blend of leadership and hands-on contribution. Day-to-day, you would likely be:
* Supporting and mentoring our team of developers in Georgia, helping them grow and fostering a space where everyone can do their best work.
* Helping us architect and build reliable backend and full-stack solutions, primarily with Python and Django.
* Guiding the development of our RESTful APIs and microservices architecture.
* Working closely with product managers and others to translate ideas into practical, technical plans.
* Helping us keep the platform performant, secure, and reliable for our members.
* Encouraging good practices through thoughtful code reviews and testing.
* Jumping into the code when needed, whether that’s on the backend or helping out on the frontend.
**What You Might Bring To The Table**
We’re not looking for a perfect match, but we think you’d be comfortable in this role if you have:
* 6 or more years of experience in software development, with a good amount of that time spent on backend or full-stack work.
* Experience in a leadership or mentorship role. You find it rewarding to help other engineers succeed.
* A strong foundation in Python and Django; this is central to our stack.
* A strong foundation in PostgreSQL and some experience with cloud platforms like Google Cloud Platform (GCP).
* A good grasp of system architecture, especially around RESTful APIs and microservices.
* Bonus: Familiarity with frontend technologies like React.
* Any experience with containerization tools like Docker and Kubernetes (K8s) would be a plus.
* Clear and kind communication skills in English. We’re a global team, and this helps us all stay connected.
* Russian language – an advantage.
* An interest in using AI tools to help the team work smarter and faster.
**What We Offer In Return**
We believe in taking care of our team. Here’s what you can expect from us:
* A work environment where people genuinely support each other.
* The opportunity to grow professionally as the company grows.
* A flexible, hybrid work setup. We have a great office in central Tbilisi for the days you’d like to come in, and we trust you to manage your time.
* The chance to be a core part of a small, dedicated team working to solve a meaningful problem.
