TECHNOLOGY/SOFTWARE KNOWLEDGE * Strong on the modern stack: React and Python/FastAPI with PostgreSQL; MongoDB a plus. * Genuine test-engineering depth: pytest, Playwright, API and integration testing, and test design - not incidental coverage. This is a stated, weighted requirement for this role. * Fluency in AI-assisted development required: experience launching a net-new SaaS product and life-sciences exposure both preferred. PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS * Exerting up to 10 pounds of force occasionally and/or negligible amount of force frequently or constantly to lift, carry, push, pull or otherwise move objects, including the human body. * The individual is required to have close visual acuity to perform an activity such as preparing and analyzing data and figures; transcribing; viewing a computer screen and extensive reading. * The individual in this position needs to occasionally move about inside the office to access file cabinets, office machinery, etc. * The individual must be able to remain in a stationary position 70% of the time., Bachelor of Science - Computer Science ## Description Mode of Interview: 2 rounds interview with final ONSITE and coding exercise as part of it., * Deliver features end-to-end on AI-first stack: Reacj front end, FastAPI services, PostgreSQL and MongoDB persistence. * Build the automated test foundation for launching product unit, API, integration, and end-to-end coverage that lets the team ship quickly and safely. * Contribute to AI-in-product integration patterns as a core part. JOB QUALIFICATIONS The Build & Test Mandate: * This role is explicitly hybrid: a functional full-stack engineer who is also a strong test engineer. * You write the feature and the automated coverage that proves it. * On a launching product, test quality is what makes velocity safe. Working Model (Contract): * Per MedPro's support model, contractors do not hold production access. Deployments and production operations pair through the full-time pod lead; your job is to make that pairing cheap - clean pipelines, feature flags, strong observability, and changes that are safe to ship. * AI-assisted development is the standard working mode. * A focused 6-month engagement aligned to the launch window, with extension evaluated against launch progress. ## Related Videos - [Watch Tests Go Brrrr! : Getting Started with Cypress in ReactJS](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/282-watch-tests-go-brrrr-getting-started-with-cypress-in-reactjs) - [40 Minutes to Build a Serverless COVID-19 REST and GraphQL APIs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/208-40-minutes-to-build-a-serverless-covid-19-rest-and-graphql-apis) - [pytest: Simple, rapid and fun testing with Python](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/213-pytest-simple-rapid-and-fun-testing-with-python) - [Hiring AI Native Talents](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100268-hiring-ai-native-talents) - [NoSQL Data Modeling for Front-end Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/297-nosql-data-modeling-for-front-end-developers) - [Get Your Stack Together: Building the Right Recruiting Tech](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1295-get-your-stack-together-building-the-right-recruiting-tech) ## Related Articles - [How to Become an AI Engineer](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/331-how-to-become-an-ai-engineer) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Dev Digest 137 - AI'm not sure about this](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/485-dev-digest-137-ai-m-not-sure-about-this) - [Navigating the AI Shift](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/629-navigating-the-ai-shift) - [Dev Digest 120 - Apple and peers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/455-dev-digest-120-apple-and-peers)
