COMPANY OVERVIEW
HueDx is a technology platform for developing and launching rapid, quantitative, assay-based (RQA) diagnostic tests in a fraction of the industry-standard time. Quantitative, on-demand, low-cost diagnostic results, specifically tailored to your need, are produced in seconds using a mobile phone camera and a HueCard. No lab, expensive equipment, or complicated sample collection necessary. HueCards can be developed for partners in the medical, agricultural, industrial, veterinary industries, and more. Develop your own assay or choose from ready-made HueDx assays to launch your configuration of a HueCard as a complimentary or mission-critical product in months— not years— at a fraction of the cost.

DESCRIPTION
HueDx is searching for an experienced Front End Developer (FED) to join our team to manage, maintain, and expand HueDx’s customer facing web services. This individual will report to the Head of Software and will work closely with a team of chemists and chemical engineers, as well as a team of developers and mechanical engineers that interact with both user-facing, production applications as well as internal data-gathering applications. The HueDx services are hosted on AWS leveraging API Gateway, Lambda, S3, RDS, SQS, CloudWatch, Step Function, Sagemaker, and more.
RESPONSIBILITIES
The FED will develop and be the sole owner of a codebase that spans all Front End web services. These services are exposed via a comprehensive API that is consumed by several different types of applications— public, internal, web, and mobile applications.
- Develop: This individual will develop experimental, test, and production-worthy code for relay to image processing pipelines, tooling, and production environment architecture in AWS using Node.js. They will also create tools for maintaining, testing, and evaluating the effectiveness of those pipelines in production, test, and development environments.
- Plan: The FED will plan ahead for future product needs and seek to understand practical, realistic product requirements for a real-world application involving complex data science.
- Launch Products: The FED will be responsible for producing software that is used in a deployed product. As a result, an understanding of the product development lifecycle and mindset is essential. Triaging bugs, planning new features, and understanding compromises are topics this individual needs to have a great deal of experience managing in the midst of complex and ever-changing data-science-related product requirements.
- Manage A Codebase: The FED will be the primary “owner” of the front-end at HueDx. Establishing coding standards and best practices, as well as evaluating the code of other contributors to the codebase will be the responsibility of the FED. Opinions about “the right way” to grow, manage, and modify the codebase are encouraged!
- Digest Stakeholder Requirements: The FED will listen to and understand the requirements of the product from the perspective of the end user and the other contributors to the frontend— such as data scientists who manage production ML models— and translate those requirements into achievable and practical development.
- Organize: The FED will take ownership of their codebase and ensure that their software, tools, architecture, and plans are well-communicated, justified, understood, and approved by their team as a whole. As a result, this individual will need to be high-organized and take satisfaction in writing quality code and documentation.
