Your Mission: Learn, Grow, and Deliver Impact

As an L2 Software Engineer at Clipboard Health, you won’t just build features—you’ll sharpen your skills, tackle real-world challenges, and contribute to solutions that truly matter in healthcare. If you’re eager to grow alongside a fast-paced, high-impact company and want the opportunity to take ownership of meaningful projects, this role is for you.

What You’ll Do: Own Your Code, Shape the Future

• Write Scalable, Performant Code

  • Build and maintain features primarily using TypeScript, React, Node.js, and NestJS.

  • Work on backend services leveraging MongoDB, Postgres, and Redis to ensure data integrity and speed.

• Develop Reusable Components and Utilities

  • Contribute clean, modular code for web and mobile (Ionic/React, Dart/Flutter) solutions.

  • Collaborate with our DevX team to improve tooling, reduce friction, and keep things running smoothly across the organization.

• Own the Full Software Development Lifecycle

  • From problem definition and design through development, testing, demoing, and supporting production code.

  • Deploy your own code using trunk-based development, short-lived feature branches, and automated regression testing.

• Collaborate with Product Managers and Customers

  • Understand real-world problems in healthcare, occasionally interacting with end-users or internal teams for feedback.

  • Ensure your features directly solve user needs, balancing speed with quality.

• Participate in a Remote-First Culture

  • Communicate effectively in a globally distributed team: embrace asynchronous discussions, over-communicate when needed, and align with your team’s daily overlap schedule.

• Contribute to a Customer-Centric Approach

  • Whether squashing bugs or implementing new features, keep the user’s experience in mind.

  • Take part in on-call rotations (typically one week out of the month) to learn the ropes of delivering reliable, high-quality services at scale.

Who You Are: An Early-Career Developer with Big Ambitions

• 2–4 Years of Professional Software Engineering Experience

  • Comfortable with TypeScript/JavaScript, React, Node.js, and NestJS.

  • Familiar with AWS (ECS, Terraform) deployment processes or eager to learn.

• Growth-Oriented and Resourceful

  • You love tackling new challenges, experimenting with fresh approaches, and learning from feedback.

  • Show initiative by spotting improvements in the codebase and proactively making them happen.

• Strong Foundation in Testing Methodologies

  • Understand integration, E2E, and selective unit testing—and how these approaches balance safety with speed.

  • Open to adopting our “testing trophy” philosophy, embracing linting rules, static analysis, and thorough CI pipelines.

• Scrappy and Customer-Focused

  • Thrive in a high-impact environment where you’re trusted to own the work you do.

  • Excited by the chance to directly improve healthcare solutions for patients, nurses, and facilities worldwide.

What Success Looks Like

• Reliable, High-Quality Deliverables: You consistently produce scalable, maintainable code that passes reviews and testing with minimal rework.

• Rapid Integration and Team Contribution: You quickly adapt to our agile processes, actively participate in standups, and bring meaningful ideas to discussions.

• Proactive Problem-Solving: You uncover potential pitfalls early, suggest improvements, and handle your tasks with minimal guidance.

Why You’ll Love This Opportunity

• Accelerate Your Growth

  • Collaborate with senior engineers, learn from real-world scenarios, and enjoy a steady stream of challenges that expand your skillset.

• Make a Tangible Impact

  • Contribute to features that directly shape our healthcare staffing platform—your work won’t sit on a shelf gathering dust.

• Flexible Remote Work Environment

  • Join a globally distributed team, enjoy an unlimited PTO policy, and no “back-to-office” mandate. We’ve been remote from day one.

• Customer-Centric Culture

  • Whether refining our CI/CD pipelines or addressing tech debt (~20% of our time), we stay focused on delivering value to end-users.

• High-Growth Environment

  • With 400% growth in revenue and booked shifts last year, there’s plenty of opportunity to make your mark and learn rapidly.
