Job Description
Role Overview:
We’re looking for a Senior Backend Software Engineer who is proficient with Kotlin to join our Applications team. This is a senior position so you should have experience being a subject matter expert and making significant design/implementation contributions to large projects. It will be common to find yourself in a position to teach and mentor others – whether engineers with less experience than you in general or teaching senior engineers with less experience in a specific area. Additionally, you will often need to explain parts of your decision-making process to non-engineers so our teams can better understand feasible boundaries of the new products and features we are building. We write software that processes and analyzes large amounts of healthcare data. Our engineering teams are cross functional teams that own specific subdomains within our product suite. The Applications Team owns all our customer facing applications and the backend APIs that power them. Backend engineers on this team work to develop products and solutions alongside frontend engineers, data visualization experts, and QA engineers. More broadly, the larger Engineering team (20+ developers) builds and maintains the production systems upon which the Machine Learning department applies models, the Research department constructs analyses, client representatives run queries, and clients gain insights. We gather, organize, and consolidate multiple streams of data into logical structures, optimized for inspection at various levels of abstraction for various known and unknown use cases, and we provide the interfaces through which that inspection occurs. From a process standpoint we use Shape Up and work in 6-week cycles followed by a 2-week cooldown. In general, we are very light on recurring meetings, there’s lots of focus time for getting work done. What you need to bring to the table: Bachelors in Math, Engineering, or Computer Science or commensurate industry experience Great communication skills and the ability to explain your solutions to non-technical audiences Problem solving, analytical, and organizational skills Good project planning and project management skills Self-starter – able to work independently…we are a team but do work remotely Ownership mentality – between projects, our most highly valued employees notice, share, and then address problems without being asked. General knowledge of and experience with managing infrastructure as code We don’t expect your experience to be an identical match for our tech stack, but if you’ve worked with any of the following (or comparable) you’ll be in good company: Azure | Databricks/Spark | DuckDB | GitHub | Kotlin | Kubernetes | Tableau |
