  • Drive architectural decisions and ensure adherence to best practices for code quality, security, and scalability.

  • Build and deploy containerized applications using Kubernetes and manage CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions.

  • Monitor, debug, and optimize systems for performance, reliability, and scalability.

  • Stay informed on emerging technologies, assessing their relevance and potential impact on the platform.

Required Skills and Experience:

  • 5+ years of professional experience in software engineering with a focus on API development and full-stack applications.

  • Proficiency in TypeScript, Java, or Python for building scalable and maintainable systems.

  • Strong expertise in GraphQL and/or REST API design, including best practices for security and performance.

When we put unexpected teams in the same room, we unleash bold thinking with the power to inspire life-changing medicines. In-person working gives us the platform we need to connect, work at pace and challenge perceptions. That's why we work, on average, a minimum of three days per week from the office. But that doesn't mean we're not flexible. We balance the expectation of being in the office while respecting individual flexibility. Join us in our unique and ambitious world.

Evinova draws on AstraZeneca’s deep experience developing novel therapeutics, informed by insights from thousands of patients and clinical researchers. Together, we can accelerate the delivery of life-changing medicines, improve the design and delivery of clinical trials for better patient experiences and outcomes, and think more holistically about patient care before, during and after treatment. We know that regulators, healthcare professionals and care teams at clinical trial sites do not want a fragmented approach. They do not want a future where every pharmaceutical company provides their own, different digital solutions. They want solutions that work across the sector, simplify their workload and benefit patients broadly. By bringing our solutions to the wider healthcare community, we can help build more unified approaches to how we all develop and deploy digital technologies, better serving our teams, physicians and ultimately patients. Evinova represents a unique opportunity to deliver meaningful outcomes with digital and AI to serve the wider healthcare community and create new standards for the sector. Join us on our journey of building a new kind of health tech business to reset expectations of what a bio-pharmaceutical company can be. This means we’re opening new ways to work, pioneering cutting edge methods and bringing unexpected teams together. Interested? Come and join our journey
