Engineering at NexHealth

Our engineering team needs to:

• Work with a highly-aligned engineering team committed to balancing productivity, quality, and stress in a way that lets NexHealth be incredibly successful while fitting into the lives of our team members
• NexHealth is looking to change the way doctors and patients think about their health data and enable a modern customer experience for patients while meeting doctors and office staff at their current technology level; we are putting upward pressure on the acceptable patient experience in the marketplace
• NexHealth's engineering team is still making critical design and architecture decisions that will affect our business for years to come—getting ahead of scaling and growth issues while we address our daily challenges will be a constant tension that will require sound, calm judgment and an adaptable mindset
• Our problem requires us to build a unique and diverse set of software that presents novel challenges you probably haven't dealt with before.

What You'll Do:

As a Software Engineer, you'll help expand our business by building the software that connects our customers' EHRs to the NexHealth platform. We're looking for engineers who can demonstrate expertise in several of the following areas:

• Building fault-tolerant distributed systems that are easy for future engineers to understand, monitor, and reason about
• Hacking together new and legacy systems to enable data access and unlock new functionality
• Making decisions based on evidence and data, and collecting that evidence when needed, rather than relying on assumptions or hearsay
• Communicating about your work, the consequences of your work for our customers, and what people should expect next, including likely decisions or adverse events
• Minimizing threat surface area and anticipating vulnerabilities when making design decisions, even under stress
• Delivering small units of value to production continuously, locking in gains so a change in priorities doesn't result in piles of unfinished work
• Considering operational concerns when building software to ensure we can manage our technology ecosystem effectively
• Handling incidents with discipline and a calm sense of urgency, using a risk-based response and concise, thoughtful communication
• Holding the team accountable to high standards while boosting morale and driving toward shared goals
• Promoting and enabling teammates and their careers while building redundancy and resiliency in capabilities and knowledge amongst team members

We have aggressive growth plans, so leadership skills are important for everyone as we help onboard new team members and face big and sometimes difficult decisions.

Technologies We Use Every Day:

• Python
• Postgres
• Datadog
• Amazon Web Services
• Kubernetes
• GitHub
• Ruby
• Rails
• Sidekiq

NexHealth Operating Principles

• Solve the customer's problems, not yours
  When making decisions, think from the perspective of the customer. It's easy to make decisions that make our lives simpler, but not the customers.
• Do the things others are not willing to do
  As a Nexer, always go after the hardest problems. Pursue things at the highest quality. Move at the fastest pace.
• Take ownership
  Act like a founder. Own your roles, destinies, mistakes, behavior, and our mission. The buck stops with each of us - no blaming or excuses.
• Say what's on your mind, with positive intent
  Be direct, proactive, transparent, and frequent in your communication.
• Default trust
  As a Nexer, you do not have to earn trust, trust is given to you by default. If we by default trust each other, our speed of communication, feedback, information sharing, and overall improvements will be a lot faster.
• Think in first principles
  We first identify the problem and then break it down to its fundamentals before diving into solutions. We constantly ask "why" to validate our assumptions.

Benefits

• Competitive salary plus equity
• Full Medical, Dental and Vision
• Unlimited PTO
