Software Engineer (Contract)

Flatiron Health is looking for a Software Engineer to help us accomplish our mission of improving and extending lives by learning from the experience of every person with cancer. In this role you will work on the Flatiron Clinical Pipe product team. Flatiron Clinical Pipe is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) tool for zero-transcription oncology clinical trial study data capture from anywhere in the patient's medical record.
What you will do
Learning from the experience of every cancer patient involves building systems that are secure, scalable, compliant, and have excellent UIs. We welcome backend engineers, full-stack engineers, and aspiring architects. In this role you will develop new features, including designing software and infrastructure solutions, implementing those solutions, testing them, and deploying them. In addition, you'll also:

• Perform design and code reviews.
• Collaborate with engineers, product managers, and other internal stakeholders to deliver solutions that solve the problems of Clinical Pipe's end users.
• Participate in daily standups, bi-weekly sprint meetings, and other team ceremonies.

Flatiron engineers work day-to-day with oncologists, product leaders, and data experts. In this role you'll have a chance to expand your communication skills and have mentorship outside of engineering.
