Senior Software Architect

Join the Team Modernizing Medicine

At ModMed, we’re not just building software—we’re reimagining the healthcare experience. Founded in 2010 by a practicing physician and a successful tech entrepreneur, we took a radically different approach: we hired doctors and taught them how to code.

From our global headquarters in Boca Raton, Florida, and extensive employee base in Hyderabad, India, we are a team of 4,500+ passionate problem-solvers on a mission to increase medical practice success and improve patient outcomes.

Consistently ranked as a top place to work. 2025 Globee Business Awards: Gold Globee for "Technology Team of the Year." 2025 Black Book Awards: Ranked #1 EHR in 11 specialties. Florida Venture Forum: Venture-Backed Company of the Year.
