NodeJS

This is a fully remote contract where candidates must work EST hours starting at 8am EST every day.

We are looking for strong NodeJS candidates here that have gone to American Universities to get their bachelors degree and have strong AWS experience as well as GraphQL.

Please see below and let me know if you have any questions.

This is exclusive to us and I have sent this to only one other vendor!

Project:

• OptumNow the Google of healthcare
  • Developing a largescale search engine that provides the most relevant medical information (ex. When you search diabetes an article about diabetes a diabetes doctor nearby treatment options will all return as results)
  • There are multiple teams supporting this product this team specifically focuses on big data as it relates to searching integrating APIs with multiple data sources determining a system to decide which results return in the most relevant order
  • They are very early on in this project laying the groundwork and piecing the architecture together would like to have 4 search types integrated by EOY
  • They currently have 2 architects and 2 engineers on this team doing the work.

Responsibilities:

• Primary focus will be developing the search APIs and integrating them with the data sources and OptumNow
  • Heavy backend work the UI is very basic so they will not be touching it much
• Heavy collaboration with other OptumNow teams to identify issues and find/develop solutions will be working a lot with data engineering teams

Must Haves:

• 5 years of experience this is the absolute minimum
• NodeJS backend focused
  • Will primarily be developing and integrating APIs
• AWS this platform is cloud based
  • Lambdas Event Bridge S3 Dynamo Set Functions need to have as many of these as possible.
• GraphQL

What Will Win:

• Experience integrating with search engines they use Algolia and are starting to use Vespa
• Big Data
• Previous healthcare would be nice big data experience would be more helpful
• Go & Terraform most of this work will likely be done by the time this resource joins
