Position Overview

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will play a critical role in the development and modernization of iPrescribe — a secure, cloud-connected mobile app that powers real-time electronic prescribing for U.S. healthcare providers. You will work with the latest versions of React Native and TypeScript, and help us expand core features such as EPCS compliance, pharmacy integration, biometric authentication, and voice communication.

 

This role is part of a larger migration effort from a legacy Ionic Angular codebase to a modern React Native architecture. While the focus is on React Native, you'll also be expected to read and interpret legacy Angular/Ionic code to support the transition and collaborate with cross-functional teams ensuring feature parity and compliance.

 

You will work closely with backend, QA, and product teams in a fast-paced, regulated environment to deliver secure, performant, and scalable mobile healthcare solutions.

What you will work on

• Develop, test, and maintain complex mobile features using React Native, React, and TypeScript
• Architect performant and modular solutions using Redux Toolkit
• Ensure accessibility and responsive behavior across Android and iOS platforms
• Troubleshoot issues across the React Native bridge, native modules, and device-specific behaviors
• Participate in code reviews, mentoring, architectural discussions, and continuous delivery
• Help define technical standards and best practices for mobile code quality, testing, and performance
• Contribute to CI/CD pipelines and release automation
• Read and interpret legacy Angular/Ionic code as needed to support feature migration or bug fixing

Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional experience in mobile development, including at least 3 years with React Native
• Familiarity in Java, Kotlin, Swift
• Strong proficiency with React, TypeScript, Redux Toolkit, and mobile navigation patterns
• Experience with secure authentication flows (OAuth2, biometrics, Keychain/Keystore storage)
• Solid grasp of mobile performance tuning, memory management, and native debugging
• Ability to understand and debug Angular/Ionic codebases
• Experience building apps in regulated industries (e.g., healthcare, finance) is a strong plus
• Familiarity with mobile DevOps CI/CD pipelines
• Comfortable working in an agile, cross-functional team in a fast-paced environment
• Strong communication skills, especially when discussing tradeoffs and compliance-related decisions
• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience

Nice to Have:

• Prior work on healthcare, eRx, or EPCS-certified applications
• Experience with React Native Reanimated
• Exposure to Ionic Framework, RxJS, or Angular module systems

Why Join Us?

• Work on a mission-critical product improving healthcare across the U.S.
