Senior Full Stack Developer

Web Application Workflows and Integrations

The Senior Full Stack Developer will be responsible for enabling and enhancing customer data cleansing workflows in the Symmetric Terminal web application. These workflows allow Symmetric Terminal users to quickly and accurately enrich and validate hospital supply chain item data such as item classifications, attributes and descriptions, and then easily interact with the users’ other systems to update the data in all necessary locations.

The developer will work directly with Symmetric’s team of analysts and external users to understand the intricacies of the workflows and data in order to produce maximally efficient workflows while accounting for the inevitable edge cases inherent in complex supply chain systems.  

A successful candidate will be an energetic self-starter who enjoys reviewing and understanding data relationships, accuracy, and use in solving our customers' challenges. One who is interested in learning more about hospital supply chain data management and is detail oriented, yet thrives in an ambiguous environment. The candidate will be able to maintain clean code and architecture while learning more about the domain, and be able to design the system to support changes as solutions to more customers’ challenges are incorporated.

This role will provide the chosen individual with exceptional exposure to various aspects of data management and workflows in healthcare, from ideation to execution, and experience working with a multitude of stakeholders. The role comes with the freedom to experiment with alternative solutions to navigate the workflows being built, allowing for the candidate’s growth in any areas that address the business’s needs.
