Principal Software Engineer

Nuna Engineering builds 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.

Principal Software Engineers’ contributions constitute the backbone of every product our users touch. You will 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 create and refine software architectural designs, system integrations, and development processes cross-functionally. Your contributions will help hospitals improve patient outcomes, enable health plans to pay for quality-of-care rather than quantity-of-care, and match patients to optimal doctors.

In this role, you will:

• Promote technical platforms with long term business opportunities 
• Align cross functional teams with effective communication, and drive company culture with Nuna’s core values
• Provide technical guidance to software development teams, training to engineers, and vision to executive teams
• Build interactive products including predictive analytics and dynamic modeling for our customers to gain insight into ways to improve care delivery
• Design APIs and service architectures that multiply the effectiveness of internal and external developers serving millions of patients
• Manage our high stakes production environment, ensuring high availability/low latency while protecting our sensitive data with rigorous security
• Identify significant opportunities to improve our products and underlying technology blazing trails through ambiguity
• 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
• Work as part of a team, not in a silo - at Nuna, we rise by lifting others!

• Experience scaling complex systems with efficient, secure, and load tested interactions
• Experience working with executive to intern levels with effective negotiating and influencing skills
• Experience delegating tasks and evaluating performance of projects.
• Experience providing creative solutions and offering theories that solve complex problems and create values for our customers
• 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 such as indexing, SQL queries, schema migrations, and managing backups
