Our cutting-edge frontend SPA relies on a multitude of RESTful endpoints, offering a seamless user experience.

    In this pivotal role, you will play a crucial part in developing groundbreaking solutions for medical researchers while also contributing to the strategic direction and objectives of our product. We seek a candidate who can autonomously discern priorities among various features, tasks, and optimizations, ensuring optimal outcomes for our users and stakeholders.

    Our Stack:
    • Frontend: ReactJS, Material-UI, JSS, Webpack, GatsbyJS

    • Work closely with customers and internal team to strategically prioritize features on the product roadmap
    • Make critical architectural decisions. Research new technologies and understand complexity tradeoffs
    • Build features for LIMS - our internal laboratory information system (powered by Django).
    • Build robust data pipelines to feed into machine learning algorithms
    • Provide technical support to the internal team
    • Handle automated deployments and maintenance for web servers.
    Requirements
    • 5+ years of experience in Django / Python.

    • Experience with Google Cloud Platform or comparable cloud provider.
    • Experience in full-stack web development, including front-end and back-end development
    • Demonstrated leadership or capability to see projects through completion
    • Effective technical communication skills to both technical and non-technical stakeholders
