About the Role

PaceMate is looking for an Associate Application Engineer to join our Business Intelligence team. In this role, you’ll help build and maintain the internal applications, automation systems, and AI-enabled workflows that power PaceMate’s clinical and operational functions. You’ll work closely with our Senior Director of AI & BI and cross-functional teams, developing APIs, integrations, and data pipelines while getting hands-on experience with modern AI-assisted development tools and agentic workflows.

This role is designed for a career-driven technical professional with strong problem-solving ability, curiosity, and an interest in building modern applications, automation systems, integrations, and AI-enabled solutions. The ideal candidate is excited by technology, enjoys learning how systems work together, and wants to grow their skills in application development, automation, and scalable data architecture.

We’re looking for a highly technical builder who can own applications, automate processes, solve complex system problems, and help scale the next generation of internal platforms and AI-enabled solutions across the organization. You’ll work across analytics applications, automation systems, AI workflows, integrations, and operational tooling. This is a role built for someone who wants to grow from a junior-level developer into a well-rounded engineer capable of supporting applications, automation, and intelligent systems.

The ideal candidate naturally thinks: “How do we build this better, automate this, and scale this long-term?” , not someone focused solely on dashboards or manual reporting.

What You’ll Do

Application Development & Support

• Support the development, enhancement, and maintenance of internal applications and automation systems
• Help improve application reliability and performance
• Build APIs, integrations, workflows, and backend services supporting business operations
• Troubleshoot and resolve bugs, system issues, and performance bottlenecks

Data & Platform Engineering

• Develop and optimize data models, queries, and integrations across MySQL, PostgreSQL, Salesforce, and internal systems
• Build scalable automation and data-processing solutions
• Help ensure the integrity and reliability of operational and analytical data flows
• Support AI-enabled workflows and automation pipelines
• Implement monitoring, validation, and observability practices

AI, Automation & Innovation

• Use AI-assisted development tools and agentic workflows to accelerate delivery
• Identify opportunities to automate operational processes
• Partner with leadership to prototype and deliver innovative solutions
• Stay current on emerging technologies and recommend scalable approaches

What We’re Looking For

• High school diploma or GED required
• 1–3 years of experience in software development, automation, data, or a similar technical role (internships, bootcamps, and hands-on project experience count!)
• Experience supporting applications, scripts, integrations, or automation projects preferred
• Familiarity with TypeScript, Vue, Python, JavaScript, MySQL, or PostgreSQL
• Exposure to Kubernetes, APIs/integration frameworks, or cloud automation tooling is a plus
• Comfort with (or curiosity about) AI-assisted coding tools like Claude and Cursor
• Experience in healthcare technology or data-intensive environments is a plus

Nice to Have

• AWS, EKS
• Databricks or Snowflake
• Docker / containerized applications
• CI/CD pipelines
• Healthcare interoperability standards (HL7, FHIR)
• Experience with frontend frameworks and modern UI development

Logistics

• 100% remote, open to candidates anywhere in the contiguous U.S.
• Requires a dedicated home office space and reliable high-speed internet
• Occasional limited travel may be required
