We're innately curious, open to alternative perspectives, and invest passionately in our own continuous growth. • Role Description • As a Senior Backend Engineer, you will join our world-class engineering team in building the foundation for the Verisian Platform. You will work on parsers and compilers for programming languages (SAS, R, and python) used by statistical programmers to analyze clinical trials. You will transform the results into graphs and other advanced data structures based on which we build the Verisian Platform products. • You will be expected to lead the analysis, design, building and deployment of the entire analytics and backend stack. As part of our core team, you will join us in designing, prioritising, building and testing new functionality, troubleshooting customer issues, finding root causes, and deploying required fixes to ensure maximal user impact and performance. • We run code analysis pipelines based on Antlr4 and Java. Our application stack is currently based on Next.js and deployed via Docker/Kubernetes in the cloud. Git is where our code lives, and Github Actions is how it gets out into the world. • We currently focus on our core products: the Verisian Explorer and Validator. Our tooling automatically extracts full dataset and column-level data lineages and dependencies from existing clinical trials to enable validation, understanding, modification, communication, as well as trial code and data reuse. This means clinical trials are analyzed and validated faster, better, and at lower costs to the benefit of all of humanity.
