Software Engineer - Remote

Salary: $105,000 – $135,000 per year

About the role

The position of Senior Developer is key to MHT's success as the company expands the feature set and scale of our platform, develops new integrations to third-party healthcare EHR/EMR systems, and leverages data to generate insightful analytics for various organizations. This role requires ownership of software design as well as coding and testing of new backend (primarily Python/Django-based) features and product capabilities. The person in this position will work with MHT's VP of R&D to discuss architectural and functional approaches to new features and platform capabilities, and then execute multiple tasks in parallel to deliver planned features, integrations, and functionality. Primarily focused on back-end functionality, there may be an occasional need to get your hands dirty in front-end code.

Key responsibilities

• Ownership of software design as well as coding and testing of new backend features and product capabilities

• Work with MHT's VP of R&D to discuss architectural and functional approaches to new features and platform capabilities

• Execute multiple tasks in parallel to deliver planned features, integrations, and functionality

• Author and modify tickets

• Perform code reviews and inspections

• Handle incorporation of product changes into integration and production builds

• Collaborate with other team members to ensure highest-quality product deliverables

About You

• You are comfortable with vague requirements; some might even say you prefer them. When presented with a half-formed idea, you do a little research, ask clarifying questions, discuss with appropriate people, and propose a solution

• You have a “get it done” approach and like to see a project through completion so you can move on to something else

• You understand that sometimes (often, even) requirements and/or priorities change mid-stream, and for a rapidly evolving product it's a given that the goalposts are going to be fairly mobile

• You prefer to work on a small team and are always ready to lend a hand, even if it’s not in your specialty area

• You’re proud of your work and consider it a failure if a bug makes it through to the QA team or even production

• You are comfortable using AI tools, know where they get it wrong, and catch errors before they ship

Required Skills and Experience

• At least three (3) years of recent experience working as a software developer/engineer

• At least one (1) year of recent experience writing Python software

• Excellent English language skills, for both written and oral communications

Bonus Skills and Experience

• Five-plus (5+) years working as a software developer/engineer

• Recent experience writing Django applications, specifically using Django REST Framework

• Recent experience writing Celery applications

• Front-end experience with the Angular framework

• Comfortable using AI Coding Assistants and Review Tools

• MySQL familiarity (ability to run queries on the MySQL command-line)

• Understanding database schemas and complex data models at a technical level, including relational models, queries, reporting and dashboarding

• Linux familiarity (you're not necessarily a command-line junky, but you know the basics)

• Experience with Amazon Web Services (AWS) architecture and design, including but not limited to optimizing performance, load balancing and redundancy

• Experience with Health Care Systems and Interfaces, preferably using HL7, FHIR, or other standards-based, secure HIPAA-compliant integration
