Experienced Mid Stack Software Engineer – Web & Cloud Application Development for a Remote-first, API-first, and Biology-focused Company
About Us
Hurdle, a Chronomics brand, is revolutionizing the way biology and healthcare intersect by simplifying and accelerating access to biological data for companies and consumers. Our API-first, modular platform combines world-class expertise in biology, healthcare, technology, and AI to make biological data accessible to as many people as possible, ultimately improving future health outcomes. We work closely with leading healthcare partners to deliver healthcare that has a real-world impact on people's lives, such as measuring their true biological age or monitoring their heart health.
Join Our Team
We are seeking an experienced Mid Stack Software Engineer to join our product squad, building out new features that add real customer value and maintaining our current platform. As a remote-first company with employees working from various locations in the UK, Ireland, Spain, and Serbia, we offer the flexibility to work from anywhere. Our team is founded by scientists from the world's leading research universities, bringing together an expert team across science, technology, business, and operations.
Where You Will Make a Difference
You will be given the autonomy to make a real impact, working closely with our product squad to build out new features and maintain our current platform. With a small team size, you will have the opportunity to take ownership of your work and learn from your mistakes. We don't expect you to know everything, but a drive to learn, take ownership, and learn from your mistakes is key.
Our Tech Stack
We believe in using the right tool for the job, but we are moving towards a full Typescript stack deployed via CI/CD to AWS.
React.js on the front end.
Node on the backend (moving away from PHP monolithic to more event-driven microservice architecture) with some Python sprinkled on for the more data science parts.
On the database side, we use Postgres/MySql, DocumentDB, and DynamoDb.
What We Need from You
3+ years of experience coding.
Experience moving fast with Agile.
Ability to build software with high security and quality.
Good knowledge of JavaScript and specific frameworks for full-stack (Node.js or React).
Knowledge of Typescript.
Proficiency with containerisation (Docker) and serverless.
Understanding of how, why, and when to test correctly.
Knowledge of how to profile, troubleshoot, debug, maintain, and improve existing software.
Experience working with and building public/internal APIs.
Ability to work in a changing environment.
Ability to create rapid prototypes and understand how these differ from production-level code.
Good knowledge of at least one database (SQL, NoSql, etc.).
Ability to communicate with all-level stakeholders.
Nice to Have
Experience in another language (PHP or Python).
Microservices experience.
Interest in biology and health.
What You Can Expect from Us
We offer a range of benefits to support your career growth and well-being, including:
Unlimited holidays.
Fully remote work with freedom to run.
Work Macbook.
Private health insurance or contribution towards it.
Pension.
Salary up to £50k.
