ABOUT US
Hi, we’re UVX—a Vancouver company recognized as Canada's most impactful healthcare startup (https://www.telus.com/en/blog/pollinatorfund/spring-activator-growth-of-impact-investors-health-startups). We’re on a mission to accelerate global access to superior environmental and personal hygiene.
Our first product is a smart ceiling device (the size of a smoke detector) that continuously inactivates pathogens on surfaces and in the air, even with people in the room. We do this using a newly discovered “sweet spot” in the UV light spectrum, that unlike conventional UV light, is safe for humans but deadly for pathogens. For the first time ever, facilities can now disinfect continuously throughout the day without disrupting operations (as opposed to on a fixed cleaning schedule of say 8am, 3pm, and 9pm).
We're closely affiliated with UBC’s Faculty of Medicine (Division of Infectious Diseases) and backed by some of Canada’s most prominent healthcare investors like HaloHealth and former AstraZeneca C-Suite.
UVX's work was recently spotlighted on CBC News among other notable media outlets as we embark on the world's largest clinical trial of its kind; in collaboration with Nova Scotia Health Authority and Research Nova Scotia who are investing $2.8M into the trials (https://vantechjournal.com/p/uvx-nova-scotia-trial). We're at an inflection point in our trajectory and looking for talented people like you to fuel our growth.
ABOUT YOU
- You are hardworking, dedicated, and passionate about making a meaningful impact in the world.
- You thrive in fast-paced environments and are motivated by challenges.
- With a track record of going above and beyond, you strive to exceed expectations not only because others care, but because you do.
- You are not afraid to roll up your sleeves and do what it takes to meet deadlines.
- You’re courageous enough to challenge the status quo, but yet humble enough to accept when you’re wrong
If this sounds like you, then we’d love to hear from you!
THE ROLE
Our proprietary technology is software-enabled-hardware. One of our biggest differentiators is our web application; making your role as an frontend software engineer critical to our success. Our tech stack consists of React JS (Type) hosted on AWS backed by a Node JS server and PostgreSQL.
You won't simply be a passive observer when it comes to steering our product towards its final vision. Instead, you'll be in the front seat working directly with UVX’s CEO and CTO. More specifically, your role will include:
- Designing and developing user interfaces using React JS.
- Providing insight and assistance to backend engineers when designing and debugging servers.
- Collaborating with the backend team to integrate frontend with backend API’s.
- Writing robust, testable, and easy-to-maintain code.
- Writing and maintaining unit tests.
- Performing quality control by doing peer code reviews, ensuring coding standards are followed, and identifying logic errors and other bugs.
YOU MEET THESE REQUIREMENTS
- A degree/formal training in software development, computer science, or equivalent work experience.
- 2 years or more experience in mobile development (not including bootcamps and capstone projects).
- Strong programming skills in Type.
- Experience using Git for source control.
- Legally eligible to work in Canada (valid work permit, Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or person granted refugee status in Canada).
BONUS IF YOU HAVE THESE TOO
- Experience with strongly-typed programming languages such as C++, Rust, etc.
- Training in or experience with Node JS and/or PostgreSQL.
- Proficiency in linear algebra.
- Training in or experience with AWS.
- Experience with IoT devices and Cloud Platforms.
- Entrepreneurial or leadership experience (side hustle, campus initiative or club, leading group projects, etc.).
- Healthcare or health-tech experience.
OUR OFFER TO YOU
- A promise that a human will look at your resume, application, and do your interview. No AI or pre-recorded video interviews.
- Significant contributions to an innovative technology that will positively impact the lives of billions around the world.
- Influence over the outcomes of ongoing projects; a sense of ownership over your work.
- A tight-knit team that enjoys working together in a fun, informal, and flexible environment.
- Opportunity to be mentored by technical advisors who have led companies like Blackberry, HP, STMicroelectronics, and more.
- Growth opportunities within the organizations (as we grow quickly, so will you and your responsibilities).
- Stock options in a company that is nationally recognized as high impact and high potential.
Hesitant to apply?
Research has shown that women and people of colour are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every qualification in the job posting. At UVX, we are committed to creating a diverse, equitable, and inclusive environment so we strongly encourage you to apply even if you don't believe you meet every single criteria.
This list represents what we're ideally looking for, but everyone has unique strengths and weaknesses. We hire for strength and potential, not lack of weakness.
If you’re interested, so are we! We look forward to hearing from you.
