Front End Engineer
Why VillageMD?
VillageMD is changing the trajectory of healthcare by empowering primary care physicians to make informed decisions and engage patients in meaningful ways. We work with thousands of clinicians and healthcare disruptors across the country to build and contribute to our platform to improve patient health while driving down the cost to deliver it.
We are a mission-oriented organization and are thrilled about the work that we do every day. We’re transparent, collaborative, and relentless in pursuit of our mission, all while doing so with humility and a low ego. We believe that diverse backgrounds and experiences create the best opportunity for innovation and the community that we are creating is greater than any individual.
We’ve built our technology using the best of cloud and open-source technologies to create an open, data-first platform that is enriched with analytical models and modernly connected to internal and external apps. These apps drive clinical decision support, patient engagement, and other facilitators of innovative, information-enriched health experiences.
As a Front End Engineer at VillageMD, you will develop software to improve clinical outcomes and revolutionize how healthcare is delivered. We're in a unique position to impact everyone in primary care from independent, family-owned practices to premier health systems. We aggregate, process, and deliver rich data sets to improve the effectiveness of primary care for our doctors and patients. In this role, you will be instrumental in supporting and guiding our vision for enabling applications that reduce friction for clinicians instead of increasing it with unnecessary data input. As a lead engineer focused on user interfaces, you will be influencing every touch point we create including mobile, web, and voice, chatbot, as well as mentoring and guiding other engineers on user interface components.
