Our Mission is Helping Save Lives
We're seeking a smart Software Engineer with strong foundational knowledge who is ready to take a step forward in their career. You will be working alongside a strong team of Software Engineers, QA Engineers and Product experts helping develop our industry leading platform. As a member of the team, you'll be presented with new challenges as you help develop the best product in the industry. Our team culture can be described as creative and passionate, but relaxed. We're engineering driven from the top down, and will do what it takes to deliver the best product.
Our software platform is a unique mix of technologies as we firmly believe in using the best technology for the job. Our primary tech stack includes ReactJS, NodeJS, PostgreSQL and the full suite of cloud technologies. Our engineers typically "own" features they're working on and build them from top-to-bottom, which means a solid understanding of core Object Oriented Programing (OOP) design, MVC, and other architectural concepts is a must.
We simply love providing a consumer level customer experience in healthcare, where all the complexities behind the scenes are just that: behind the scenes.
What we are looking for:
- 2 years of experience in software development
- Strong OOP skills/knowledge that are language and platform independent.
- That means you know the benefits and pitfalls of OOP design and feel comfortable discussing them in detail.
- Solid understanding of modern software development and design.
- Examples include relational database design, multithreaded applications, security, and asynchronous APIs
- Non-complacent and inquisitive mindset.
- Love for coding and a good challenge.
- Like the freedom and responsibility of owning what you're working on.
- Good oral and written communication skills, and a desire to share knowledge and collaborate with others.
- Pluses: BS in Computer Science or relevant engineering discipline, experience with ReactJS, NodeJS, C#/.NET, C , Terraform, AWS or similar cloud technologies, and a shared hatred of JIRA (sorry product managers!).
