Full Code Medical is a small revenue-funded startup focused on making medical simulation an affordable and everyday activity for learners and professionals all over the world. Our best-in-the-world simulation app turns realistic medical decision-making into an entertaining game for medical practitioners. "Full Code" is used by medical students, physicians, nurses and paramedics all over the world with thousands of daily new users. We are founded and led by an expert software craftsman (CEO/CTO) and one of the best medical educators in the world.
We are hiring for:
An idealistic and hard-working software engineer (living near Boston or Brooklyn) who wants to make a difference by shipping improvements regularly to hundreds of thousands of appreciative users. You should have a few years of real-world software engineering experience working on a large codebase, and a solid foundation in theoretical software design. Ideally you've been frustrated working on a painful legacy system and long for a clean, consistent project where you can learn and develop your craft, while making an impactful mark on medical learners and their patients. Our software-design philosophy is deeply rooted in traditional object orientation, but paired with a modern approach and a mobile-first mentality. Functional programming zealots need not apply.
You will work on:
A uniquely consistent software stack that prioritizes homegrown innovation and implementation over 3rd party tools & entanglements. The Full Code platform is entirely written (well, 99%!) in Microsoft Typescript, but is inspired by the iOS ecosystem, Steve Jobs and the iPhone. From our native-app/WebGL simulator, through our various dashboards and tools, to our ORM/Postgres backend-we prioritize developer efficiency and achieve it with the single programming language that can rule them all. If you're curious how that's possible-apply!
Your responsibilities:
Work alongside our CEO/CTO to ship quality code and participate in our discovery of the state of the art in medical simulation.
Role requirements:
You CURRENTLY live in the Boston or Brooklyn area - all other applicants will be ignored
A 4-year UNDERGRADUATE university degree in computer science (or demonstrable equivalent experience)
1+ years working as a professional software engineer
Understanding of, and experience in, object oriented programming (Typescript, Java, C#, or C++)
Experience using a debugger
Able to implement basic data structures from scratch (not that we will ask you to)
Understanding of relational databases and SQL
Excitement and a dash of skepticism for artificial intelligence-in roughly equal measures
Good working knowledge of HTML & CSS-or willingness to cram ahead of our interview questions
A humble attitude and appreciation for the complexity of computation and life
Willingness to bash your head against a software problem, and never give up
Personable and able to make polite conversation with co-workers (2-3 days per week in downtown Boston)
Authorization to work in the United States
Extra credit:
You can help level-up our AWS game (EC2, RDS, S3, CloudFront)
Experience with security & authentication
Experience with containerization & build/deploy process
You are able to create your own UI drawings in Figma, then implement them
You can help us figure out if AI is "there yet" as an engineering side-kick
Compensation and benefits:
Base salary between $110-150k/yr depending on experience
Stock options at hire, plus performance based stock bonuses
Health & dental insurance (United Healthcare)
Hybrid work schedule (50% in-office, 50% remote)
Ability to work remotely during personal travel (subject to approval)
