YOU

As a JavaScript Engineer, you will be responsible for implementing the front-end logic that defines the behavior of the visual elements of an application. You will also be responsible in bridging the gap between the visual elements and the server-side infrastructure, taking an active role on both sides, and defining how the application looks and functions. Everything you do and say leads by example of how our software organization helps change people’s lives. You don’t see departments, you see individual architects shaking the foundation of science and medicine. If this is you, read on.
