## Description

Caris Life Sciences serves hundreds of thousands of molecular cases a year and continues to grow at double-digit rates. Its molecular, imaging, and clinical-outcomes data support software that helps ensure a cancer patient's report is right, complete, and on time.

The Senior Software Engineer - Clinical Software Products delivers senior-level engineering across Caris's clinical application portfolio: product delivery, reliability, and incremental modernization of the production systems that support regulated clinical workflows.

This assignment supports report generation and template capabilities for clinical result documents. Engineers deliver report types, template enhancements, and rendering-pipeline improvements while maintaining reliability, traceability, and change-control discipline.

The engineering environment supports advanced AI coding assistants and agentic workflows across design, implementation, and test generation. Characterization tests and golden-master replay validation provide executable evidence. Onboarding is harness-first: the engineer builds or extends characterization tests to capture current behavior as repeatable validation evidence.

Delivery runs on CI/CD, automated testing, application-level observability, and risk-based release governance aligned with current FDA Computer Software Assurance guidance. Representative technologies across the portfolio include Java, TypeScript, browser-based application frameworks, server-side JavaScript, and selected enterprise Java components. The interview process covers the specific assignment and technology stack.

Reporting to an Engineering Manager or Senior Engineering Manager within Clinical Software Engineering, this senior individual contributor designs, builds, and maintains clinical software applications governed by SOX financial controls and FDA regulatory requirements. The role leads technical delivery on an assigned product team, participates in architecture and design decisions, and upholds the engineering and compliance standards those systems require., * Design, implement, and maintain features and components across Caris's clinical software platforms: well-structured, testable, documented code that holds up in a regulated production environment.

 * Lead and contribute to design and architecture discussions, laying out the technical options and trade-offs that inform the team's decisions.
 * Give and receive peer code review, holding code-quality standards and surfacing issues that could affect system correctness, performance, or compliance.
 * Work with product management to sharpen requirements, name the technical constraints, and estimate backlog items.
 * Write and maintain the technical record: design documents, architecture decision records, and operational runbooks that meet SOX and FDA change-control obligations.
 * Instrument, monitor, and support production systems; participate in incident response and root-cause analysis for production issues.
 * Build automated test coverage across unit, integration, and end-to-end levels as first-class engineering work.
 * Automate the recurring engineering and operational work that delivery turns up: repeated manual steps become scripted, reviewed automation, not standing process.
 * Mentor less-experienced engineers through code review, pair programming, and knowledge sharing.
 * Make the case for technical-debt remediation that meaningfully improves system reliability, maintainability, or compliance posture.
 * Work AI-first: use AI coding assistants and agentic workflows as daily practice across design, implementation, and test generation, with peer and engineering review as the quality gate., * All job-specific, safety, and compliance training is assigned based on the job functions associated with this employee.
