Our company, established in 2023 through a collaboration between Seven Bridges and Pierian, provides software and professional services for various crucial areas such as AI-powered multimodal data harmonization and analytics for drug discovery and development, IVD development, validation, and regulatory approval, as well as clinical NGS interpretation, reporting, and adoption. With our headquarters based in Boston, MA, we are continuously growing and expanding our teams across different countries. Your primary responsibilities at Velsera will include designing and developing high-performance, scalable, and secure web applications. This involves utilizing React 18+ for front-end development and NestJS 8+ and Node.js 18+ for back-end development. You will also be tasked with architecting, building, and maintaining reusable components and front-end libraries that support complex applications, as well as implementing and managing APIs using RESTful services. Optimizing applications for maximum performance and scalability will be a key aspect of your role, along with collaborating closely with cross-functional teams including UI/UX designers, product managers, and DevOps engineers. Ensuring best practices in code quality, security, and maintainability through code reviews and testing is essential, as is troubleshooting and resolving complex technical issues in both front-end and back-end layers. To be successful in this role, you are required to have a Bachelor's degree in Engineering or a Master's degree in Computer Science. You should also possess experience in leading distributed or remote development teams, familiarity with DevOps practices and tools for continuous integration and delivery, and proficiency in Agile/SAFe development methodologies and associated tools for tracking. Strong knowledge of Javascript & MERN stack for development, experience with AWS Cloud services, and expertise in Microservices Architecture are must-have skills. Additionally, you should be adept at designing and maintaining scalable applications, working with Mongo DB and postgres DB, and demonstrating technical proficiency in development, cloud services, code quality, unit testing, CI/CD, debugging, and optimization. Maintaining a customer-centric mindset, following secure coding practices, adhering to compliance regulations, and taking end-to-end ownership of assigned features or modules are critical aspects of this role. Your involvement in agile development practices, quarterly planning sessions, iteration execution, team collaboration, communication using tools like Microsoft Teams, Jira, and Confluence, and coordination with global and cross-functional teams will be essential for success. At Velsera, we offer a flexible and hybrid work model to support work-life balance, as well as an engaging and fun work culture with vibrant workplace events, celebrations, and activities that make every workday enjoyable.,
