About the role
You will work with MediCircle’s Head of Technology to lead the development and expansion of the technical foundation that powers MediCircle's national medication redistribution platform. As MediCircle’s Director of Engineering, you will serve as a hands on engineering leader responsible for both technical execution and team leadership.

- Builder DNA: You have built and scaled real systems from scratch — APIs, data models, backend services, and production infrastructure. You've taken a product or platform from an early stage through meaningful growth and increased operational complexity
- Strong Product Judgement: You can take loosely defined operational problems and turn them into reliable, user-centered software. You move quickly while maintaining strict engineering discipline
- Architecture & Backend Expertise: Extensive architecture and backend expertise, including experience designing APIs, data models, backend services, and scalable system architectures
- Strong Full Stack Fluency: Proficient across the stack, ideally including Python (Django preferred), TypeScript / React, relational databases, and REST APIs
More about this role
MediCircle is building the national infrastructure to make prescription drugs affordable. Today, billions of dollars of perfectly usable medications go unused, while patients are forced to skip or abandon life-saving treatments due to cost. We exist to change that.
MediCircle reclaims unused medications, recertifies their quality using our patented process, and redistributes them through our licensed pharmacy. In doing so, we provide patients with medications at zero out-of-pocket cost, while generating savings for our payer, plan sponsor, and value-based care clients.
We are a VC-backed, early-stage healthcare technology company with a proven model and accelerating growth:
$65M+ in medications reclaimed to date
Active partnerships with market-leading customers, including national VBCs, PBMs, and regional health systems
Rapidly expanding demand across enterprise and government channels
If our mission resonates with you, you are interested in joining a high-growth healthcare company, and you are energized by directly impacting the lives of millions of patients who can no longer access or afford their medications, we would love to hear from you.
