Job description

Evident Scientific, formerly part of Olympus Corporation, is a global leader in life-science microscopy and optical instrumentation. Following the recent acquisition of Pramana, a pioneer in Autonomous Digital Imaging, Evident has combined its world-class optical heritage with Pramana’s software, robotics, and AI innovation to define the future of Digital Pathology.

Our young, high-performing engineering team has already taken the industry to its next node in autonomy—building the world’s most advanced whole-slide imaging platform, deployed at the Mayo Clinic to create the world’s largest digital pathology archive. Today, this technology is trusted by more than 30 top-tier medical institutions across the U.S. and Europe, powering Clinical workflows directly aiding in patient care.

As part of Evident, this team is now advancing to the next level of autonomy—moving from autonomous imaging to intelligent imaging, where scanners, data systems, and user interfaces are self-aware, adaptive, and capable of real-time AI inference at the edge.

As a Senior Engineer specializing in Node.js, you will play a crucial role in the development and maintenance of our web applications and services. You will work closely with our cross-functional teams to design, implement, and optimize software solutions that meet our customers' needs.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain server-side applications using Node.js.
• Collaborate with front-end developers to integrate user-facing elements with server-side logic.
• Design and implement APIs for web applications.
• Write clean, maintainable, and efficient code, following best practices and coding standards.
• Troubleshoot and debug issues across the entire application stack.
• Optimize application performance, scalability, and reliability.
• Collaborate with product managers, designers, and other stakeholders to define and refine software requirements.
• Stay up-to-date with industry trends and technologies to suggest improvements and drive innovation.

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• Knowledge of RESTful API design and development.
• Familiarity with NoSQL and/or SQL databases.
• Version control using Git and collaborative development using Git workflows. Understanding of containerisation (e.g., Docker) and orchestration (e.g., Kubernetes) is a plus.
• Knowledge of software development best practices, including testing, code reviews, and documentation.
• Excellent problem-solving and communication skills.
• Ability to work effectively in a team as well as independently.
• Strong desire to learn and adapt to new technologies
