Principal Developer – Solution Architect (Healthcare EMR/EHR, Ophthalmology)
Location: Remote (India)
Type of Role: Full Time
Working hours - UK Shift
Overview
An organization is seeking a hands-on Principal Developer / Solution Architect to help design and build technical solutions at the intersection of healthcare EMR/EHR systems and ophthalmology-specific workflows. This role sits at a tech lead / solution architect level but must remain fully hands-on — actively writing code, architecting solutions, and directly contributing to development on a day-to-day basis, using AI development tools and LLM-powered workflows to enhance speed and quality. This is not an oversight-only or purely advisory position; candidates who have moved away from hands-on coding into management-only roles are not a fit. The ideal candidate has direct, hands-on experience with OpenEMR, robust AI/LLM fluency, and understands how ophthalmology practices and EHR/EMR systems integrate, including ophthalmology-specific clinical workflows and data structures.
Key Responsibilities




Architect and personally build technical solutions integrating with EMR/EHR systems, with a focus on ophthalmology workflows.
Work directly, hands-on, with OpenEMR (or similar open-source/commercial EMR platforms), including configuration, customization, and integration.
Design system architecture while remaining actively hands-on in implementation and coding — not delegating core development work.
Write and review code, contributing directly to the codebase alongside architectural decision-making.
Use AI development tools and coding assistants (e.g., Claude Code or similar) as part of the day-to-day development workflow to accelerate coding, debugging, and architecture work.
Evaluate and integrate LLM-powered features or capabilities into the platform where relevant to ophthalmology triage, diagnosis support, or clinical workflows.
Collaborate with product, clinical, and engineering stakeholders to translate healthcare
