Senior Software Engineer (Fullstack)

We are looking for a senior engineer who is experienced in building applications for consumers and enterprises. As part of a team, you will be a self-motivated person who loves to solve interesting problems.

Who we are

Henry Schein One provides leading online dental practice management software to thousands of dental professionals. We are shaping the future of how millions of patients interact with their dental practice. We aim to solve tough, real-world problems by continuously innovating in the product space. We are growing our team to allow us to expand the use of our Patient Portal across the globe.

Our Tech stack

We write most of our code in Typescript (we love the OO and strongly typed nature of it and it is great for people with both a .NET and Javascript background). Our code is then deployed as Node.JS running on AWS Lambda for the backend and in Angular apps on the front end. 

We are a big fan of serverless technology and use the Serverless Stack (SST) Framework for deployments (via seed.run). We have REST API’s but our more recent work has been in a Graph API. We use lots of AWS services such as SQS, SNS, Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, Aurora (Serverless Postgres DB) to help us deliver the fast paced growth of our product.

The way we work

We are not looking for a ticket taker, we are looking for problem solvers. You won’t find us in JIRA and we don’t Sprint. We work using the Shape Up methodology enabling us to be product-focused for 6 weeks then have 2 weeks to pay down technical debt, fix some bugs and play with new tech before we start another 6-week cycle where we solve the next problem that has been shaped and agreed on by the team. The development team is presented with the problem with context and research to help them tackle and deliver a solution. Collaboration is a big part of how we operate as a team.
