Software Engineering at Dawn

Digital Health is a rapidly growing industry within healthcare, and new regulatory frameworks in the EU and US continuously raised the bar for the safety and efficacy that can be demonstrated by such digital solutions.

At Dawn Health we develop software on behalf of clients in the Life Science industry. Some software is classified as Medical Device Software, in which case we are following a strict quality process. This is an excellent case for enforcing best practices for software development, and to exercise various measures of e.g. automated testing. It is also key to lifting the quality standard for projects across the board.

About the job

As Senior Front-End Developer at Dawn Health, you'll be responsible for building core products for the Life Science sector, that will be used by Doctors, Patients and Caretakers worldwide.

The Web & CMS Team at Dawn Health has a close collaboration with the Cloud and Back-End Team, and is responsible for building and maintaining a variety of web apps and -solutions, and for configuring CMS (Content Management System) to serve as content APIs for our web apps, or for mobile apps built by our talented Android and iOS development teams.

At Dawn Health we work with Vue.js and Nuxt in the front-end, and Umbraco and Strapi as our go-to CMS platforms. Since you will be kicking off our largest web project to date, you are welcome to challenge the current tech stack, providing the right arguments.

Currently the Web & CMS Team is still small, so you will have the opportunity to influence team culture and best practices.

About you

You're proactive in your approach to solving the problem at hand, and feel comfortable taking lead on a project. You have experience working on larger web applications, and can participate in designing end-to-end solutions, including API design and web application solution architecture. You have a thorough approach to quality and maintainability, and view a good software development process as a joy rather than a hindrance. You're curious about new technologies and you're driven to find ways to implement them in your work. Finally, and most importantly, you're a team player, a wonderful person and a good addition to all the great colleagues here at Dawn Health.
