About Inspiren

Inspiren offers the most complete and connected ecosystem in senior living. Founded by Michael Wang, a former Green Beret turned cardiothoracic nurse, Inspiren proves that compassionate care and technology can coexist - bringing peace of mind to residents, families, and staff.

Our integrated solutions seamlessly fit into existing workflows, capturing everything happening within a community. Backed by nurse specialists and powerful analytics, we provide the data operators need to make informed clinical and operational decisions - driving efficiency, profitability, and better care outcomes.

About the Role

We are hiring a Principal Engineer, Systems & Strategic Expansion to be the most senior IC in the engineering organization and the CTO's right hand on technology. This is a building role. At Inspiren, architecture happens by shipping systems, coaching others to make proactive technology investments, and building the tooling that makes good patterns the default. A defining responsibility of this role is making every engineer in the org faster while simultaneously raising the bar on architecture, quality, resilience, and security. We believe agentic development is how you achieve both at once. Your job is to make agentic workflows the fastest, easiest, most correct way to build — so that engineers choose them not because they are told to, but because they are better. You will build the AI platform, agents, skills, templates, and paved roads that make coding agents architecturally literate by default, and you will continuously push that frontier forward. The fast path and the correct path should be the same path, and you are the person who builds that path.

Why This Role

• You will build across the full stack in a single company: IoT device ecosystems and embedded systems at the edge, backend services and cloud infrastructure in the middle, computer vision, ML, and radar powering the intelligence, and a Databricks data platform underneath it all. 
• Every engineer at Inspiren works with AI coding agents daily. The question of how architecture, quality, and velocity work together in that world is wide open. You will answer it by building.
• Communities using Inspiren have cut fall injuries by 86%, reduced emergency response times to 90 seconds, and replaced around-the-clock one-on-one monitoring with ambient intelligence. Your work prevents injuries, makes caregivers' jobs simpler and more humane, and gives families real confidence. The impact is visible in real facilities, with real people, within hours of launch.

What You Will Do

• Lead the product expansion into new markets: new hardware-enabled use cases, new ML-powered detections, new product experiences. Determine what generalizes and what needs to be built new by actually building both.
• Build production systems across the full stack: embedded/IoT, backend (TypeScript/Node.js), AWS cloud infrastructure, Kafka, mobile, and data platform (Databricks/Unity Catalog). 
• Make every engineer faster and better by building the agentic development infrastructure that makes the right way the fast way. AI skills that guide coding agents toward correct patterns. Validation pipelines that catch problems before they merge. Your goal: agentic development is the fastest path to production, and it produces architecturally correct, secure, resilient output by default.
• Proactively drive where the platform needs to go before it becomes a bottleneck. See around corners, create urgency, and build the path. Coach engineers through hard architectural decisions by pairing on designs, giving substantive code review, and helping teams build the judgment to make great decisions — with and without AI agents.
• Drive product urgency. You care deeply about shipping things that reach real users in real care environments. When something needs to ship, you create momentum. When something is being over-engineered, you redirect toward outcomes.
• Lead the product expansion into new markets, partnering with Product on which bets to pursue: new hardware-enabled use cases, new ML-powered detections, new product experiences. Determine what generalizes and what needs to be built new by actually building both.

What You Bring

• 12+ years of engineering experience, with recent years spent building. You have hands-on depth across at least three of: embedded/IoT, backend services, cloud infrastructure (AWS), event-driven architectures, mobile, and data platforms. You are still writing code and shipping systems.
• Architectural impact earned through building. You have shaped technical direction at the org level by shipping systems that established the right patterns, coaching others to extend them, and building the tooling that made those patterns the default. Not through mandates or review gates.
• A point of view on how agentic development changes the way engineering orgs build. You use AI coding tools daily and have gone beyond personal productivity to think about how you make an entire team faster while raising the quality bar. You have built or have strong ideas about building the scaffolding, skills, and infrastructure that make AI agents produce correct output by default.
• Product-engineering instincts and a bias toward shipping. You have launched products or major features with ownership over user outcomes. You know when to simplify, cut scope, or redirect to get something meaningful into production.
• The ability to influence experienced engineers without positional authority, through what you build, the clarity of your reasoning, and the momentum you create.

Bonus

• Experience in healthcare, IoT, or regulated environments (HIPAA, PHI, safety-critical systems).
• Background in computer vision, ML pipelines, radar, or real-time inference systems.
• Experience building products that span hardware, firmware, connectivity, and cloud software.
• Experience with Databricks or similar data platform infrastructure.
• Experience building developer tooling, platform scaffolding, or internal developer experience infrastructure.

Details

• The annual salary for this role is $260,000-$300,000 + equity + benefits (including medical, dental, and vision) 
• Flexible PTO
• Location: Remote, US or Canada - NYC preferred
