Full Job Description
Responsibilities

This is a role for an end-to-end/generalist software engineer with lots of ownership. You will be leading situations that require speaking with Ataraxis's customers and partners, and working with them directly on integrations and developing internal and external products related to commercialization. Internally, you will be working with sales team and other people in the commercial organization.

You need to be comfortable moving between product code and ML infrastructure. You will be maintaining and building our several internal services, such as physician web portal and order service.

Who You Are
  • Product-obsessed builder: You're never satisfied with "good enough"-you relentlessly spot opportunities to improve the product and move fast to ship them, knowing that done and iterating beats perfect and waiting.
  • AI-native: You're comfortable using latest AI tools (e.g., Cursor, Claude Code) to quickly build, refine, and document your code.
  • Strong external communicator: You can represent the product and company confidently to customers, partners, and the outside world-translating technical work into clear, compelling narratives.
  • Sense of style: You appreciate polished, professional UIs, enjoy collaborating closely with designers, and understand that great UX is integral to great products.
  • Creative thinker: You thrive in environments requiring innovation and aren't limited by past experience.
  • Self-directed leader: You take ownership, set your own agenda, and move with urgency. You don't need a roadmap handed to you. You identify what matters and rally others around it.
  • Effective collaborator: You keep teammates informed, surface blockers early, and turn around feedback rapidly, making it easy for those around you to do their best work.


Qualifications
  • Frontend
    • Strong TypeScript and React (we run React 19 /Next.js 15, App Router)
    • Tailwind CSS, component-driven UI, and modern testing with Jest+ React Testing Library and Playwright for E2E
    • Bonus: data viz (Recharts), rich-text (Tiptap), or medical image viewers (OpenSeaDragon)
  • Backend
    • Strong Python, with production experience in Flask (or similar) and SQLAlchemy/PostgreSQL
    • Database schema migrations (Alembic / Flask-Migrate)
    • Designing and consuming REST APIs; integrating third-party services
    • Async/background job processing (Google Cloud Tasks)
  • Cloud & DevOps
    • Hands-on Google Cloud Platform: Cloud SQL, Cloud Storage (GCS), Cloud Run, Cloud Tasks
    • Docker and CI/CD with GitHub Actions; tag-based semantic-versioned releases
    • Comfort with Vercel (portal) and serverless GPU deploys (Modal)
  • Testing & quality
    • A genuine testing discipline-pytest, Jest, and Playwright are first-class here, and our work feeds a regulated requirements-traceability process
