Vetspire | Full Stack Software Engineer | Austin, TX | Full-Time | <a href="
Veterinary medicine is one of the essential services needed to be provided during the coronavirus pandemic. Every day, veterinarians risk themselves to take care of your pets, and we're working every day at Vetspire to build them the tools to do so while following social-distancing best practices.
Vetspire is an AI-driven medical records and practice management platform for veterinarians. We’re a startup that builds the technology suite that powers veterinary hospitals, impacting every aspect of patient care from AI assistance in the exam room to managing client communications and clinical analytics.
We're looking for a full stack engineer to join our small and technical team to help bring veterinarians’ dreams into fruition. Your day to day work will consist of learning and understanding veterinarians' and veterinary staff needs and bringing them into reality from the front-end to the backend. Some examples of what your weeks may look like: building remote tools for pet owners to sign consent forms, pay invoices, and fill in information online so they don't have to walk into the clinics during the pandemic, creating an emergency room clinical census to monitor patients and alert staff in real-time, or designing the interface and algorithms for intelligent immunization reminders.
You'll be working directly with our clients (the veterinarians and staff) using Vetspire, and talking with them almost every day to better understand their needs and iterate on solutions with them. It's an incredibly fulfilling role to be able to make such a drastic difference in the lives of vets, and ultimately, everyone's pets. As such, this is more than just an engineering role, as, although you can code and develop remotely, you'll be expected to go into the hospitals every now and then to talk with the users directly, understand their needs, design solutions with them, and iterate on the results.
Our backend tech stack is a GraphQL Phoenix/Absinthe application written in Elixir, our front end is a React SPA using the Apollo GraphQL framework, our primary database is PostgreSQL, and it all runs on Google Cloud via Kubernetes.
