Job Description:	We're looking for a Software Engineering Intern to join our team for a full year, where you will get the chance to build a modern patient care management platform on AWS using cloud-native technology. Our vision and product at MedMe have already disrupted the legacy platforms in pharmacy care delivery and we would love you to join us in further excelling our impact within our healthcare system. Co-founders Purya, Nick & Rui built MedMe together after identifying the biggest problem to be existing pharmacy software built 20 years ago with the primary purpose to sell drugs. Purya was a health data scientist for the government, Nick a product engineer for the Tesla Roadster, and Rui is a Pharmacist. Our team is equally passionate about using pharmacists to provide more services for patients in the community. We are building software for an industry that has relied on paper and pen for a long time. This is why crafting, building, and constantly improving the end-to-end customer experience is an essential part of our company. It's crucial that we listen deeply to the diverse needs of our pharmacies - located anywhere from dense urban jungles to northern remote communities - to design and build for their needs to ultimately provide more proactive and sustainable care for the patients in their communities. Our mission MedMe is building the operating system to transform pharmacies into community health hubs. Pharmacies are increasingly doing more than just selling drugs, offering services like vaccinations, prescribing meds, and blood tests. MedMe Health builds software that helps schedule, document, and manage these services at scale. Our clients include the two largest pharmacy chains in Canada, servicing coast-to-coast in 3500+ pharmacies across 10 provinces, serving millions of patients. The opportunity - Building web applications using React and NodeJS (both in Typescript) using GraphQL and a Postgres database on AWS infrastructure - Collaborating on key technology decisions to shape the architecture and product roadmap - Mentorship from senior software engineers with depth of experience in healthtech from startups to large corporations - Participating in the maintenance of a quality codebase through code reviews, sprint planning, and retrospectives - Working with code and project management tools such as JIRA/Notion/Figma As an example, here are some projects you could expect to work on: - Creating new patient and pharmacist flows (eg. intakes, modules, features) to meet the needs of both our national enterprises and mom-and-pop pharmacy partners - Scaling our test environments using the AWS CDK (IaC) - Working with 3rd party digital health platforms (eg. EHRs/pharmacy software, remote monitoring devices) to facilitate integration and data interoperability that allows pharmacists to deliver more personalized, proactive care - Building & versioning APIs that are consumed by third parties Our tech stack: - React 17+ - Node.js/Typescript with GraphQL - PostgreSQL - AWS infrastructure (CDK, Terraform) - Typescript (both frontend and backend) - Dockerized / Container Infrastructure - Github & Github actions Given our startup nature, you will have tremendous product autonomy and ownership within your role. We are looking for strong self-starters, project managers, self-learners, and well-rounded communicators.    This is a fully remote role with flexible hours and the opportunity for on-site co-working in Toronto.
Job Requirements:	- Participate in agile development with our engineering and product teams - Build out high throughput, Cloud Native (AWS) infrastructure to support our workload - Ensure MedMe software meets the highest standards of security and reliability - Support the development of new features for our customers - Investigate needs for various stakeholder groups (i.e. pharmacists, patients, doctors) and new features to improve the user experience - Learn, have fun, and put your best foot forward as your role at MedMe will only be limited by your willingness to self-discover new product possibilities and verticals to champion - Opportunities for tasks related to UX Design, Database Design, Dev Ops, and/or QA depending on your interest
