Description

Key responsibilities include designing and implementing APIs, data processing pipelines, and computational services, as well as building reusable React components and integrating them with backend systems. The position demands performance‑focused development for data‑intensive workloads, contribution to system architecture, and delivery of well‑tested, maintainable code. Strong communication skills are essential for interacting regularly with non‑computational stakeholders.

In an agile team, you will develop new applications, extend existing codebases, and create features that harmonize with current systems. You will devise creative solutions to scale analysis pipelines for rapidly growing datasets, collaborate on enterprise infrastructure deployments, and prototype emerging technologies. Additionally, you will review and remediate security vulnerabilities in partnership with security and infrastructure teams.

• Design and implement APIs, data pipelines, and computational services for scientific applications.
• Build reusable React components and integrate them with backend systems.
• Optimize performance and scalability of analysis pipelines for large datasets.
• Collaborate with scientists, clinicians, and security/infrastructure teams in an agile environment.
• Mentor junior developers and conduct code reviews.
• Develop, containerize, and deploy applications using Docker and AWS (ECS/EKS, S3, RDS).
• Implement CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions and manage multi‑environment deployments.
• Communicate complex technical concepts to non‑technical stakeholders.
