Overview

Position Title: Senior Backend Engineer

Job Description

At Chronomics, we are building a bio-infrastructure platform to power the use of biomarkers in everyday life. We are on a mission to “make the unseen actionable”.

We reduce the cost, time and complexity of bio-science by automating logistic, sample collection and presentation of results through our seamless API-driven solution.

We power diagnostics for tele-health, create scientific diet plans, transform how people sleep, customize skincare routines, track the biological impact of fitness programs – all so innovators in every industry can add value to their users.

Founded by scientists from the world’s leading research universities, we have brought together an expert team across science, technology, business and operations.

We’re growing rapidly, organically and sustainably and we’re trusted by industry leaders like Superdrug, and Tui… though we’re not stopping here.

Our vision is for biology data and insight to be accessible for everyone. We are at the dawn of a ‘bio revolution’ and to make that happen, we’re creating original and innovative products that allow access to biology at the software level.

Responsibilities:

• We believe in the right tool for the job but we are moving towards a full Typescript stack deployed via CI/CD to AWS.
• React.js/Native 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 MySql/Postgres and GraphQL

Requirements:

• Strong experience in Node.JS and JavaScript
• Strong knowledge of databases (SQL, GraphQL, NoSql etc)
• Design, build and maintain scalable, reliable and performant systems
• Write secure, scalable, documented code with automated tests
• Experience working with and designing APIs
• Experience scaling products
• Agile development product mindset
• Test automation
• Some DevOps knowledge
• It is essential that you have experience with Service oriented Architectures (or microservices)
• Strong Knowledge of event driven systems is required (if not must have strong domain driven design knowledge applied to the monolith architecture)
