Key Accountabilities:

- Design and optimize back-end systems, APIs, and data flows with a strong focus on performance and reliability, sharing what you learn along the way
- Build modern, responsive front-end experiences using React, TypeScript, and CSS, with an eye toward maintainable architecture
- Work across relational databases (Postgres, MySQL, etc.), writing efficient SQL and shaping data models that support business growth
- Lead projects end-to-end, balancing hands-on development with guiding others to successful delivery, surfacing risks early and communicating trade-offs clearly
- Collaborate cross-functionally with product, design, and QA to translate business needs into sound technical solutions
- Embrace AI-assisted engineering: use tools like Claude Code and GitHub Copilot effectively, contribute to shared prompts and agentic workflows, and help the team learn what works

Desired Skills and Experience:

- Passionate about mentoring, from pair programming to guiding architectural decisions, and helping others grow as engineers
- Daily, hands-on fluency with AI development tools (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot), with sharp judgment about where AI accelerates work and where human review is non-negotiable
- Experience, or strong demonstrated interest, in building with LLM APIs: prompt design, evaluation, and safety considerations for sensitive data
- Highly organized with superb attention to detail
- Strong project management skills: comfortable with planning, estimation, and scoping
- Proven ability to work in an ever-changing environment, ability to connect the dots and make decisions on your own feet
- Ability to produce quality materials within tight timeframes and simultaneously manage several projects

What We Do
CentralReach’s story started in 2012 at an ABA clinic in Pompano Beach, Florida. The company's founder, a practicing Board Certified Behavior Analyst, was drowning in manual work – from paper billing and clinical data collection to clinical reporting.. With client outcomes in mind, she created a technology-based solution that reduced time-consuming administrative work and freed her to spend time where it matters most – serving clients. Today, under the leadership of Chris Sullens, award-winning CEO in the technology space, CentralReach remains committed to its founding mission: leveraging technology to support individuals with autism and intellectual and developmental disabilities and addressing the growing Autism and IDD care gap. Now the leader in its field, CentralReach continually strives to propel the industry forward through cutting-edge technology, an unrelenting commitment to excellence, and a culture devoted to serving the growing neurodiverse population. Trusted by more than 115,000 users, we enable therapy providers, educators, and employers to scale the way they deliver Applied Behavior Analysis therapy with innovative technology, market-leading industry expertise, and world-class customer satisfaction.
