Software engineer (platform and clinical integrations)

Moonlight AI is transforming clinical diagnostics by extracting genomic information from routine microscopic imaging. Our diagnostics platform leverages routine imaging of hematology and cytology smears to detect genomic biomarkers and diagnose complex diseases. Moonlight AI's goal is to make diagnostics faster, more scalable, and more accessible, supporting diagnostic labs with tools they can trust in real-world settings. We’re a focused team working at the intersection of machine learning, medical imaging, and clinical infrastructure, and we’re looking for people who care deeply about building a better future for patients.

The founding Software Engineer (Platform & Clinical Integrations) will build the core infrastructure and clinical integration layer of our AI diagnostics platform. You will work across backend systems, infrastructure, and frontend interfaces for a secure, reliable platform that integrates into diagnostic workflows.

This is a high-ownership role shaping how AI systems are deployed, operated, and trusted in clinical environments.

Responsibilities

• Architect and maintain scalable cloud infrastructure using Infrastructure-as-Code
• Design and operate CI/CD systems for safe, auditable deployments across environments
• Build backend services and APIs supporting clinical workflows and platform functionality
• Develop integrations with Laboratory Information Systems (LIS) using healthcare standards (HL7 / FHIR)
• Build internal tools and lightweight frontend applications for clinical and operational users
• Implement security, observability, and compliance controls (ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR) across an international network of laboratories
• Ensure system reliability, auditability, and traceability across all platform components

Requirements

• 4+ years in Platform Engineering, SWE, or Infrastructure roles
• Strong experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS or GCP) and Kubernetes
• Proven experience with Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Pulumi, or similar)
• Experience building production backend systems (Python, Go, Java, etc.) and frontends (React / TypeScript)
• Experience with CI/CD, observability, and distributed systems
• Background in regulated or high-reliability environments (healthcare, fintech, SaMD)
• Work permit valid in Switzerland or EU

Strong Plus

• Experience with LIS integration or healthcare interoperability (HL7 / FHIR / DICOM)
• Experience building systems with auditability or regulatory constraints
• Exposure to clinical or diagnostic workflows
