Position: Senior Software Engineer (OOP Expert) and Team Lead

Senior Software Engineer (OOP Expert) and Team Lead

Job Description - Senior Software Engineer And Team Lead

Reports To - Engineering Manager

Axis Care is hiring a full-time full stack Senior Software Engineer with OOP expertise to join our 100% remote team. You’ll help us modernize our PHP-based web stack and build, release, and maintain our innovative, market-leading home care SaaS. That means:

Collaborating with our product leaders to spike out possibilities and get the technical details right for new features
Mentoring junior and mid-level engineers to help them level up, especially in their understanding of object-oriented programming and code design. For this responsibility, you need expertise in designing highly cohesive, loosely coupled objects.
Coding backend business logic, further developing our API for client and customer use, integrating with third-party APIs, building out the frontend UI, and tackling issues throughout the codebase
Working to improve system performance and resilience, upgrade our underlying tech stack, and automate tedious manual processes to lighten the maintenance load of the whole team

We hire great people, invest in their growth, and trust them to do great work. That means software development typically happens within autonomous product teams that are responsible for driving well-shaped projects from concept to completion. No egos here. Just a handful of humble, talented, and conscientious builders who play well with others and work as a team to ship great things.

While this isn’t a managerial role, we’ll be looking to you to lead your project teams to ship, help us navigate tough technical challenges, and seek out opportunities for the professional growth of others.

What We’re Looking For

At least 5 years' experience as a professional software engineer on teams building web apps with the full PHP web stack, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. If your experience is with another C-based language like C# or Java and you have a desire to work in PHP, that's great too.
Experience building React-based apps written in Type Script.
Experience building well-structured, readily comprehensible, easily maintainable software that balances practical and elegant. Good software should be valuable to the business now and easy to change later.
Experience working with MySQL, with both PHP-based ORMs and raw SQL.
Experience designing and building RESTful APIs.
Experience integrating with third-party APIs.
Fluent use of a distributed version control system like Git to collaborate on software development within a team.
A good writer, which is especially important given the asynchronous and technically precise nature of our work.
A team lead for a small team of 1–2 other engineers, though also fully capable of taking substantial features from concept to completion as the sole developer.
A systems thinker, able to look beyond the element at hand to consider the broader system and the dynamics and interactions at play within it.

You’re able to work remotely and live in the Eastern, Central, or Mountain time zones in the US. You must be qualified to work in the United States or Canada.

What We’d Be Excited to Find

Experience building applications designed to run in a cloud-native environment (a.k.a. The Twelve-Factor App).
Familiarity building and maintaining HIPAA-compliant software.
Experience developing and maintaining EMR/EHR systems used in clinical care settings.

Working Conditions

Manual dexterity required to use desktop computer and peripherals.

Compensation and Equipment

Salary (TBD based on job experience and skill level)
Medical insurance is covered in full for the employee (Medical, Dental and Vision)
Company will provide laptop and other needed computer equipment.

How to Apply

Please apply via Bamboo

HR with a brief resume and a cover letter tailored to this position. Tell us about something you’re proud to have built and how it speaks to what we’re looking for. Tell us why this position is just the thing you’ve been hoping to find. Give us a preview of what it’ll be like working with you. No need to write a novel, so please keep your cover letter around 600 words at the most.
