The Role

This is a top software engineer job that incorporates everything you’ve worked so hard for. And with the mission of creating cloud software that helps speed up the innovation and delivery of critical treatments and medicines to patients around the globe, it simply doesn’t get any more important than this.

As a Principal Full Stack Engineer, your impact as a seasoned technical problem-solver will mean you will be focused on building software that can not only scale for heavy use but that can also evolve with new features and capabilities. And because this senior role is independent, you will have equal influence to drive the direction of the build, be an advisor to product leadership, and mentor freshly minted software engineers in their new careers.

What You'll Do

  • Collaborate with Product Management and Development team members on technical design and problem solving to come up with compelling solutions to problems
  • Own all aspects of implementation for features from design to development, deployment to production, and support and maintenance
  • Quickly break down complex problems into potential solutions, accounting for knowns and unknowns, in order to get to solid resolutions faster
  • Passion to mentor and guide engineers at all levels
  • Define, evangelize, and mentor on best practices and coding standards
  • Extensive experience reviewing code engineers of all levels

Requirements

  • 12+ years of software development experience
  • Extensive experience developing enterprise SaaS cloud applications
  • Proven track record of building high volume products at scale
  • Hands-on development experience with current open source tools and technologies (Java, Spring, MySQL, Hibernate, Gradle, Git, Jenkins, AspectJ, Messaging, Solr, and Lucene)
  • Experience with front end technologies such as JavaScript and React
  • Drive and flexibility to roll up your sleeves and work hard (and have fun) in a fast-paced startup environment
  • We are looking for strong mentors with a proven record of making your team better
  • Applicants must have the unrestricted right to work in the United States. Veeva will not provide sponsorship at this time
  • Must be located in EST time zone

Nice to Have

  • Previous experience working in an agile environment
  • Experience with the Spring framework
  • Experience with ES6
  • Experience with Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) product development

Perks & Benefits

  • Medical, dental, vision, and basic life insurance
  • Flexible PTO and company paid holidays
  • Retirement programs
  • 1% charitable giving program

Compensation

  • Base pay: $150,000 - $300,000
  • The salary range listed here has been provided to comply with local regulations and represents a potential base salary range for this role. Please note that actual salaries may vary within the range above or below, depending on experience and location. We look at compensation for each individual and base our offer on your unique qualifications, experience, and expected contributions.
