Job description

About Us

AlleyCorp Nord is a boutique consultancy building at the intersection of AI and healthcare. We solve challenging human problems by applying cutting-edge technology and domain understanding.

About the role

Please note that this posting is for our candidate database, meaning we may reach out when a suitable project arises. If you're interested in collaborating with us in the future, we'd love to connect!

We're seeking a senior developer specialized in healthcare interoperability to help our clients build and maintain robust, standards-compliant healthcare data systems. This position combines deep technical expertise in healthcare data standards with strong full-stack development capabilities.

Note that while we are seeking healthcare specialists, not all our projects are in healthcare, so you may work in other fields from time to time.

Your work will consist of:

• Building healthcare integration solutions — implementing FHIR APIs, HL7 interfaces, and EHR integrations for our clients' software products. Delivering high-quality code that adheres to healthcare data standards and security requirements.
• Product development — gathering requirements, talking to stakeholders, developing features, and making improvements to our clients’ software products. Delivering high-quality code, including frontend and backend, infrastructure, data, and more.
• Tooling — Improving platform tooling for your project(s), through building CI/CD pipelines, test suites, and more. Making best use of AI coding assistants, in accordance with project constraints.
• On some projects, technical project management — planning and coordinating deliverables, scope, timelines and budgets for a project team; working closely with clients and internal interdisciplinary teams to ensure successful and high quality delivery.
• Supporting the team — Bringing process and tooling suggestions to your teammates, mentoring more junior colleagues, presenting internally, participating in interviews, and contributing to internal tooling projects from time to time.

About you

We are seeking developers with strong software engineering fundamentals and specialist knowledge in healthcare interoperability. While we use various technologies, our healthcare projects typically involve TypeScript, Node.js, and Python, often deployed on AWS.

We want you to apply if you:

• Have 5+ years of experience as a software developer, with at least 2 years focused on healthcare.
• Have hands-on experience implementing FHIR APIs and HL7 interfaces, including experience with common healthcare integration engines and FHIR servers.
• Are well-versed in healthcare data security requirements and standards like HIPAA.
• Have excellent communication skills and can explain complex technical problems to both technical and clinical stakeholders.
• Are adaptable, self-motivated, and thrive in fast-moving environments.
• Have experience integrating with major EHR systems like Epic or Cerner.
• Have experience with healthcare terminology services and standards (SNOMED CT, LOINC, RxNorm).
• Have worked on projects involving clinical decision support or population health analytics.
• Have contributed to healthcare open source projects or standards development.

All of our job postings describe a bit of a unicorn. If you're kind of a "narwhal," please apply anyway. You don't need to meet all the requirements, let alone the bonus criteria. While experience and skill sets are valuable, growth potential and attitudes are equally important. We are usually flexible on levels or can advise you when a more relevant posting opens.

What we offer

We are a remote-first company with office space in Montreal. We prefer to hire in Quebec, but we are open to candidates anywhere in the EST±2 time zone in Canada.

Some of our benefits — ask us for more details during the interview process!

• Home office/technology budget;
• Yearly professional development budget;
• Parental leave top-up (8 weeks), regardless of path to parenthood;
• Annual compensation review, benchmarking to industry and inflation changes. Annual and project-based performance reviews.
• From Day 1 — 100% employer-paid health & dental insurance including a yearly bank of coverage for complementary medicine (Acupuncture, osteopathy, massage therapy, naturopathy, psychology, etc.); Life, long & short-term disability insurance.
• After 1 year — company RRSP matching and profit-sharing participation.
