YOUR TEAM 

In Nuna Engineering, we build technology to enable users (from data scientists to analysts to policy-makers) to understand healthcare data while ensuring its integrity, security and privacy. Our work runs the gamut from joining streams of messy real-world data to building queryable data warehouses to constructing visualizations and dashboards that provide actionable insight. We build systems that are auditable, as automated as possible, an accurate representation of the underlying data, and, most importantly, responsive to our end users’ needs. We strive for a creative, collaborative engineering environment that implements best practices of peer review, readability, maintainability, and security of the code base and infrastructure.

The PDK team is responsible for building the application to support user driven configuration of the Nuna Value Platform.  This encompasses building the user interfaces, the APIs, and database schemas to manage the content that powers our apps. We work with Nuna’s Data Platform teams, integrating with large datasets and rules engines to allow our users to configure, execute, review and publish their healthcare programs. 

We are building for the long term with a focus on increasing engineer velocity across Nuna by maintaining standardized development and deployment infrastructure. We ensure enterprise-grade stability and startup-grade velocity by maintaining a well-tested code base and infrastructure that is secure-by-default.

YOUR IMPACT

The PDK team is building the future of how our users work with Nuna - evolving from a long, error-prone human intensive process to a fast systematic way of deploying and managing the healthcare programs that drive our customer’s businesses. We measure our products’ success by the quality and iterative speed it provides to our customers. As an engineering-led culture, you will be at the vanguard of making healthcare work for all Americans. Today, you’ll be helping hospitals improve quality of care and enabling health plans to pay for quality-of-care not quantity-of-care. Tomorrow, you’ll be creating even bigger and better products to shape this industry.

YOUR OPPORTUNITIES

• You’ll build products that change the dynamics and incentives of the healthcare industry, changing a zero-sum game of competition between payers and providers into patient-centered collaboration.
• You’ll design APIs and service architectures that multiply the effectiveness of internal and external developers serving millions of patients.
• You’ll work in our high stakes production environment, ensuring high availability/low latency and protecting our sensitive data with rigorous security.
• You’ll identify big opportunities to improve our technology and our products, blazing trails through ambiguity.
• You’ll mentor more junior engineers and, in turn, learn from more senior engineers, because we are learners, not knowers, and growing Nuna’s people is the most reliable way to scale our impact.
• You’ll work as part of a team, not in a silo. At Nuna we rise by lifting others

YOU BRING

As a full stack engineering team, we need a wide array of skills as a whole. No single engineer needs to cover every single dimension, so don’t take this as a literal requirements checklist. We’re excited to talk with you if you bring some or all of the following:

• Experience building workflow or content management applications
• Experience sustainably engineering Javascript applications, ideally with React and Typescript.
• Experience building production-hardened web services, with consideration for security, performance, scalability, reliability, and repeatability. Familiarity with application server frameworks like Django.
• Experience with API design that lets us build composable APIs and libraries to solve many different needs.
• Experience rapidly prototyping new product concepts, especially for enterprise clients.
• Understanding of automated testing concepts in web apps and the ability to consistently apply them.
• Knowledge of database fundamentals like indexing, SQL queries, schema migrations, and managing backups.
• Experience managing production services and designing smooth deployment processes, ideally in AWS.

TECHNOLOGIES USED AT NUNA

• Python, Django, SQL, testing tools (e.g. pytest)
• JavaScript, TypeScript, React, module bundlers (e.g. Webpack), testing tools (e.g. Cypress, Jest), CSS, HTML
• Linux, OS X 
• AWS ECS, RDS, Security Groups, IAM, Lambda; Hashicorp Terraform and Vault
