Overview

We’re looking for two Full Stack Engineers to join a high-impact healthcare technology project. You’ll help build and scale a benefits platform that makes it easier for people to access life-saving medications. This platform is preparing for significant growth and seasonal demand in early 2026 - and you’ll be part of the team driving performance, new feature development, and real-time integrations.

This is an opportunity to work with a modern tech stack (Next.js, Node.js/TypeScript, AWS Lambda), contribute directly to product features that matter, and operate in a collaborative, async-first environment.

Key Responsibilities
  • Optimize data loading and UI rendering for scale
  • Build new, customer-facing user interfaces with Next.js
  • Integrate machine learning predictions into user views
  • Connect the platform to external REST APIs for real-time insights
  • Capture usage metrics and display through Datadog dashboards
  • Contribute to an agile delivery model (two-week sprints, daily standups, async collaboration)
  • Own your work end-to-end: from planning, to building, to testing (no separate QA or BA teams)
What We’re Looking For

Must-Have Experience:

  • 3–6 years as a Full Stack Engineer
  • Next.js (React) for modern front-end development
  • Node.js + TypeScript, with hands-on AWS Lambda experience
  • Strong understanding of modern web development and data structures
  • Comfortable working independently and testing your own code

Nice-to-Haves:

  • Familiarity with PostgreSQL and writing efficient queries
  • Experience with SST (Serverless Stack) or other IaC frameworks
  • Knowledge of Datadog instrumentation
  • Previous work in healthtech or benefits platforms
Tools & Environment
  • Node.js / TypeScript
  • Next.js (React)
  • PostgreSQL
  • AWS Lambda, Middy
  • SST (Infrastructure as Code)
  • Jira, Confluence, Bitbucket
  • Established CI/CD pipelines
Why This Project is Exciting
  • High impact: Your work will directly improve patient access to critical medication
  • Modern stack: No legacy baggage, you’ll work with the latest frameworks and cloud-native tools
  • Autonomy & ownership: Define, build, and deliver features in a team that values independence and results
Logistics
  • Remote, with strong overlap required in US time zones (PST/CST)
  • Contract through February 2026, with potential to extend
  • Start ASAP (ideally within 2 weeks)
Hiring Process
  1. Virtasant technical screen (includes Codabyte assessment)
  2. Single 45-minute client team interview (no live coding test)
  3. Offer & onboarding


What you need to know about the Calgary Tech Scene

Employees can spend up to one-third of their life at work, so choosing the right company is crucial, not just for the job itself but for the company culture as well. While startups often offer dynamic culture and growth opportunities, large corporations provide benefits like career development and networking, especially appealing to recent graduates. Fortunately, Calgary stands out as a hub for both, recognized as one of Startup Genome's Top 100 Emerging Ecosystems, while also playing host to a number of multinational enterprises. In Calgary, job seekers can find a wide range of opportunities.
