About The Role

You'll build the end-to-end systems that power Healf's operations—from inventory management and automated replenishment to inbound and outbound freight optimization, vendor invoicing, warehouse labeling, and supplier operations.

As our

Lead Full Stack Engineer , you will own the technical foundation of the systems that run Healf's supply chain.

You'll define the architecture of our end-to-end fulfillment platform, make critical infrastructure decisions, and set the engineering standard for how these systems are designed, built, and operated.

This is a high‑ownership role with significant scope, direct influence over our operations technology roadmap, and the opportunity to build systems that fundamentally transform how the business scales.

What You Will Do

  • Architect and

Build: Own the architecture of the multiple supply chain platforms being built from ground up, including replenishment, logistics, receipt, stock visibility, and supplier operations.

  • Own End-to-End: Take projects from system design through implementation, testing, deployment, and iteration.
  • Set the Technical Foundation: Define key decisions across stack, data model, event‑driven workflows, and failure handling.
  • Reimagine Processes: Proactively identify opportunities to replace manual, spreadsheet‑driven workflows with automated, resilient, status‑driven systems.
  • Lead and Mentor: Establish engineering best practices, mentor engineers, and build a high‑performance culture within the Operations engineering function.
  • What We Are Looking For
  • Strong full stack engineering experience with architectural ownership building and operating production systems, not just integrating them.
  • Hands‑on experience architecting supply chain systems and data‑driven applications used by operators.
  • Strong architecture instincts; able to reason through complex system design problems and make sound technical trade‑offs under real business constraints.
  • Strong backend engineering with AWS serverless architectures and excellent proficiency in Node. js / Type Script.
  • React and Next. js experience, with a focus on usable, maintainable internal tooling.
  • Comfortable balancing deep individual contributor work with mentoring and supporting other engineers.
  • Adaptable and comfortable with ambiguity, with a bias toward delivery in a fast‑moving environment.
  • The Deal

Competitive and meaningful compensation package for the right person.

We ask a great deal of the people who work here.

We expect full ownership and a genuine commitment to give this chapter everything you have.

In return, we will give you the same: everything we have, invested in your growth, your wellbeing, and the defining skills of the next decade.
