What is it like to work here? It’s fantastic. But to elaborate further, expect to create custom software related to the fields of research, clinical medicine, and education. We are in the business of improving the workflows of our clients, empowering them to advance in their respective fields, and freeing them from paperwork and process bottlenecks.

We develop primarily in Ruby on Rails. We use agile approaches to software development to get usable products to our clients quickly. Meetings are kept to a minimum to allow for focus without unnecessary disturbances. Developers who are interested often have the opportunity to meet with clients. We value collaboration such as pair programming.

Expect to have a input regarding what you work on. Find a project particularly alluring? Say something. We make every effort to match projects with interested developers.

But we don’t stop there. Our team has the ability to make all kinds of choices, including company best practices, processes, and protocols. Found a code review process you’d like to try out or a piece of technology you are interested in implementing? Speak up. We are always looking for ways to improve. That’s why our company values are so important to us, and why we work so hard to hire only self-motivated, intelligent people with a hunger for knowledge and continual improvement.

We love the culture at SciMed and are always looking for great people to make us even better. If all this sounds like something you’d like to be a part of, let’s talk. Send your resume and code samples to employment@scimedsolutions.com

We are passionate about building software in the medical, scientific, and academic communities. Our work has enabled our clients to make a difference in vaccine discovery, cancer treatment, energy- efficient building construction, and social change.

We are looking for someone equally passionate as well as self-motivated, disciplined, driven, a decision-maker, and a team player. We want employees who are not solely driven by personal success, but are invested in the team's success.

Although this position is for a Ruby on Rails developer, Ruby experience is not required. If you have a 4 year degree, are a talented coder, can work quickly, and work across multiple technologies and projects, we'll train you on Ruby.

Experience or understanding of Agile development, experience in coding technologies such as PHP, Python, Perl, .NET, JSP, XML, JavaScript, or AJAX are a plus. The best applicants will bring valuable skills beyond computer science and software engineering.

We strive to find the best fit for every employee and value personal growth. If you are interested in working in an environment of accuracy, teamwork, openness, respect, and would like to limit your work week to 40 hours, apply today.
