Paradigm is rebuilding the clinical research ecosystem by enabling equitable access to trials for all patients. Our platform enhances trial efficiency and reduces the barriers to participation for healthcare providers. Incubated by ARCH Venture Partners and backed by leading healthcare and life sciences investors, Paradigm’s seamless infrastructure implemented at healthcare provider organizations, will bring potentially life-saving therapies to patients faster.
Our team hails from a broad range of disciplines and is committed to the company’s mission to create equitable access to clinical trials for any patient, anywhere. Join us, and bring your expertise, passion, creativity, and drive as we work together to realize this mission.
In this role, you will be a Technical Leader for the Planning and Recruiting team. You will serve as the subject matter expert for our Front End architecture, bridging the gap between complex clinical business requirements and elegant, performant user interfaces.
While you will interact with our backend services (Java/Kotlin), your primary focus will be elevating our Front End ecosystem (React, TypeScript, and modern build tooling). You will not just write code; you will define how we ship, monitor, and scale our client-side applications, while mentoring engineers to help them grow their careers.
What You’ll DoTechnical Leadership & Architecture
- Architect the Front End Ecosystem: Define and champion the long-term vision for our Front End architecture, including state management strategies, component library evolution, micro-frontend decisions, and build tool migration (e.g., Webpack to Vite/Turborepo).
- Drive Engineering Standards: Establish organization-wide best practices for the UI layer, ensuring code quality through strict linting, comprehensive testing strategies (Unit, E2E, Visual Regression), and accessible design (WCAG).
- Production & Observability: Own the lifecycle of the Front End from local development to production. You will implement monitoring best practices (Core Web Vitals, error tracking, RUM) to ensure our users have a seamless experience.
Product Partnership & Strategy
- Shape the Product: Partner deeply with Product Managers and Designers to understand the "why" behind the "what." You will translate complex business needs—such as patient trial matching—into technical specifications that balance speed of delivery with long-term maintainability.
- Cross-Team Impact: Drive large cross-team initiatives from start to finish. You will break down multi-quarter epics into iterative technical plans that deliver value early and often.
- Domain Expertise: Develop a deep understanding of the clinical trial domain to anticipate user needs and proactively suggest technical solutions that solve business problems.
Mentorship & Culture
- Elevate the Team: Actively mentor engineers both within your immediate team and across the organization. You teach how to fish—helping others understand design patterns, performance optimization, and debugging techniques.
- Foster Collaboration: Bridge the gap between Backend and Frontend, ensuring API contracts are robust and efficient for UI consumption.
- 10+ Years of Experience: You have seen the evolution of the Front End landscape—from JQuery to MVC frameworks to modern React. You understand the history of web development, which allows you to make pragmatic choices about the future.
- Master of the Stack: Deep expertise in JavaScript/TypeScript, React, and CSS/Styling architectures. You understand the browser rendering pipeline inside and out.
- Ops-Minded: You understand that Front End development doesn't end at git push. You have strong experience with CI/CD pipelines, CDN configuration, feature flagging, and production troubleshooting.
- Product-First Technologist: You care about the user experience above all else. You look at your work beyond the code, focusing on how it impacts the patient and the provider.
- Reliable Delivery: You get stuff done. You say what you will do, and do what you say, delivering high-quality work timely and reliably.
Engineering Cultural Attributes:
- Ownership - Takes proactive lead into their work - say what you will do, and do that.
- Growth Mindset - Believe in potential, embrace challenges, learn from mistakes.
- Curious - you look at your work beyond the surface, and care about why and how things work
- Amplifies Others - Willing to learn from anyone and want to teach others
- Transparent - Provides effective feedback to reports, in code reviews, and shares information openly to build confidence.
