About you

You have a passion for excellence in code. Unit testing is old hat to you. You love working at the intersection of form and function, making web apps that do their job and keep users coming back, again and again. You’re excited at the possibility of working for a small but established startup with big potential, whose customers are among the largest worldwide names in healthcare. You’re okay with wearing multiple hats, including architect, developer, tester, and even system administrator on occasion.

You thrive in a work-from-home environment, and you have a proven track record of delivering your art from the quiet (or not so quiet) of your home, a coffee shop, the park, or whatever floats your Bring Your Own Office boat.

While you love the frontend, you can hold your own on the backend too. Writing MySQL queries and developing in a modern Laravel and PHP environment does not intimidate you (even though we all know you’d rather be writing Javascript!) You are also thrilled that as our backend developers bring a new API online in the coming months, you will be the main architect and developer of our next-generation web apps which will consume it. (Angular, anyone? Or maybe you prefer React or Ember?)

About us

At Symplur we are connecting the dots in healthcare social media, elevating the patient’s voice. We’ve built a platform called Symplur Signals that promotes a deep understanding of healthcare as seen by patients, doctors and other stakeholders with real-time access to insights from over a billion healthcare social media data points. Our users range from world renowned universities and government agencies to global pharmaceutical companies.

Our backend is rooted in PHP and Laravel, with a healthy dose of AWS cloud hosting tools like OpsWorks, Aurora (MySQL), and ElastiCache (Redis). Our frontend uses Bootstrap, HighCharts, and a wide range of open-source Javascript libraries.

We offer paid healthcare and a generous vacation policy.
