Benefits
How the engagement works

This is a remote fulltime role with a confidential healthcare technology client operating a telemedicine platform across all 50 U.S. states. ONLY FOR CANDIDATES BASED IN THE US.

Day to day, you will work closely with Software Engineers, Quality Engineers, Product Managers, Designers, and other stakeholders, contributing across the full software development lifecycle.

The hiring process begins with a conversation with the client to discuss your experience, technical background, and mutual expectations.

Candidates then complete a short, scoped technical exercise designed to reflect the type of practical engineering work they would encounter in the role.

The final stage is a technical interview with the engineering team focused on software architecture, problem-solving, hands-on development experience, and technical judgment.

For a consultant/contractor engagement, your work will be based on the agreed scope and deliverables. You are expected to provide your own laptop and basic equipment, maintain reliable connectivity and a secure working environment, and follow required security controls, including two-factor authentication.
