Software Engineer for Clinical Interfaces

Counsyl is a health technology company that offers DNA screening for diseases that can impact men, women and their children. The Counsyl philosophy is simple: screen for diseases where advanced knowledge makes a difference in health outcomes, whether it’s changing a behavior, pursuing preventative measures, or simply preparing for what lies ahead.

Don't be intimidated if you don't have a genomics background; solving these problems fundamentally requires software solutions. We're looking for the best and brightest software engineers — strong generalists with solid CS fundamentals and practical software engineering intuition — to help us scale up genomics to billions of users. The vast majority of our operations are powered by our own custom-built infrastructure on a Python/Django/Postgres stack, from ordering to lab processing to billing. We're building new tools, new workflows, and new infrastructure to solve the challenging problems of a technology startup involved with not just bits, but also interconnected physical components like lab robotics and patient samples.

• Integrate Counsyl's core software systems with clinical Electronic Medical Record systems, enabling patient and order data to flow in both directions
• Build, maintain, and enhance the interfaces — everything from our web portal to physical fax forms — for our clinical partners
• Work with designers and product managers towards our next-generation user experiences for patients and doctors
• Collaborate with Counsyl engineers to support and upgrades core pieces of our software infrastructure, frameworks, testing architecture, and data modeling
• Mentor and guide junior developers

• Experience with Python/Django (or another similar framework)
• Work demonstrated by a GitHub account, personal web page, or prior experience.
• Relational database systems experience, such as PostgreSQL
• Experience with Unix, Git, and other command line tools
• BS, MS or PhD in Computer Science or equivalent experience
