About Empassion


Empassion is a Management Services Organization (MSO) focused on improving the quality of care and costs on an often neglected “Advanced illness/ end of life” patient population, representing 4 percent of the Medicare population but 25 percent of its costs. The impact is driven deeper by families who are left with minimal options and decreased time with their loved ones. Empassion enables increased access to tech-enabled proactive care while delivering superior outcomes for patients, their communities, the healthcare system, families, and society.

- Healthcare industry experience (strongly preferred)
- Deep expertise building scalable Back-End Web APIs
- Expert-level Python proficiency
- Hands-on experience with Django and/or Django REST Framework (DRF)
- Solid DevOps fundamentals, including:
- CI/CD pipelines
- Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
- Docker & Kubernetes
- Cloud infrastructure (GCP, Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage)
- Strong frontend fundamentals with experience in Vue.js or React
- Advanced knowledge of relational databases, including:

- Demonstrated accountability for production systems and code quality

Our Engineering Philosophy


At Empassion, we believe that the highest form of engineering is achieved in building simple yet robust solutions to solve complex business problems.


Our philosophy is guided by five core principles


Maintainability First: We stay closely attuned to industry trends but choose our tools with the discretion that healthcare technology demands. We reach first for battle-tested, well-supported technologies that allow us to deliver business value quickly and ensure reliability for the patients and clinicians that depend on us. Our engineers take pride in solutions that are built to last and simple to maintain.


Mindful Innovation: As technical experts, we must lead the charge in uncovering opportunities for innovation and automation across our business. We encourage the use of emergent technologies when they provide a clear, measurable impact for our most pressing business problems. Our engineers are innovators who can justify their choices with expertise and professional wisdom.


Extreme Ownership: Our engineers carry a deep sense of personal accountability for everything they ship. We aren’t satisfied with just completing the requirements in a ticket; we partner with stakeholders and dive deeply into business problems to ensure we are building the right thing, often identifying gaps in requirements well before they become problems in production. We view thorough documentation and rigorous self-testing of our code as non-negotiable parts of the job—not for the sake of process, but because we refuse to leave the success of our work to chance.


Business-Focused Engineering: We don't measure success by the frequency of releases or the number of tickets closed, but by the outcomes that we drive for our clinicians and patients. We expect every engineer on our team to possess a keen
