Blue Mesa Health | Software Developer | Vancouver, Canada or Remote | Full Time | REMOTE, http://www.bluemesahealth.com/ Blue Mesa Health is preventing type 2 diabetes by delivering a behavioral intervention program that helps at-risk individuals add healthier decisions and habits into their every day life. This is on the forefront of the digital therapeutics space with a clinically grounded program that's already showing strong results. Our product team supports the human relationship between program participants and their dedicated health coach. Projects include: * a multi-platform smartphone app designed to drive behavior change through education, rich communication, and habit trigger push notifications; * backend data integration and analysis of activity tracker and weight scale data for outcome focused decision making; and * rapid iteration towards human-computer hybrid communication with both the low hanging fruit of supportive information design and also application of machine learning for real-time chat response. We're a small dev team using a Javascript everywhere stack (Express.js on Node.js for RESTful backend, Angular2 web app, Ionic2 mobile app) for maximum efficiency and collaboration. The next hires will be a major part of defining our technical culture. It's my experience that strong developers can pick up almost any language and libraries with some time and support. I'd love to hear from anyone with grounding in web technologies, object-oriented domain modeling, and functional programming who has an interest in fostering effective team communication.
