The software developer will be extending and supporting the software tools we have built. Our stack includes Python, ReactJS, Node.js, AWS, cloud-enabled services, and other open-source tools.
You are an experienced software developer with a primary emphasis on building high-quality and intuitive user interfaces. You should have excellent understanding of usability and the ability to focus on precise details. You are eager to learn about the modern development tools, standards and best practices that can assist you to ship better code or be more productive. The qualified candidate is expected to contribute to all phases of software development at ClinGen, including application design, development, implementation, modification, and maintenance, as well as to comply with and support University and government health & safety regulations & policies.
