Job description

Healthcare’s helping hand. CHG shook things up in 1979 by inventing the locum tenens staffing model. We connect doctors with patients who need their care. As the largest physician staffing firm in America, our providers treat millions of patients each year. Our industry is growing and demand is high. This means you’ll have plenty of opportunities to grow and develop in your career. Keeping healthcare healthy can be as fun as it is rewarding.

CHG Healthcare’s Data & Analytics division is looking for a Staff React Engineer to join our Data & Analytics Platform team. The Data & Analytics Platform team is modernizing CHG’s enterprise reporting and analytics experiences by migrating them to React applications hosted in Snowflake. As a Staff React Engineer on the Data & Analytics Platform team you will set architectural direction for the platform, establish the standards other engineers will follow, and raise React fluency across the entire Data & Analytics organization - serving as equal parts hands-on builder, architect, and teacher. This role will report to the Director of Data Engineering.

Responsibilities

• Design and lead the core architecture of CHG’s React-based reporting platform hosted in Snowflake, setting standards for component patterns, data-fetching, state management, and performance.
• Serve as the primary technical expert on architecture, evaluating tooling and integration approaches (Snowflake-hosted apps, Snowpark, API layers) in coordination with leadership.
• Partner with data engineering, analytics engineering, and BI teams to prioritize and migrate Tableau dashboards to React.
• Mentor and train engineers, BI developers, and analysts org-wide on React through code reviews, workshops, and pair programming.
• Build and champion AI-assisted engineering tools and guardrails that help the team build faster and more consistently within platform standards

Qualifications

• Deep expertise in React, TypeScript/JavaScript, and modern front-end tooling, with strong data visualization and charting skills (D3, Recharts, Highcharts).
• Proven ability to architect front-end platforms used by multiple teams, not just individual applications.
• Skilled at explaining complex technical concepts to engineers, analysts, and non-technical stakeholders.
• Real, hands‑on experience building or customizing AI-powered developer tools (AI coding assistants, custom agents/MCP integrations, internal LLM tooling).
• Strong ownership instincts and comfort operating with a high degree of autonomy and ambiguity.

Education & Experience

• 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, including 5+ years focused on React and front-end architecture.
• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or related field, or equivalent professional experience.

Preferred

• Snowflake or similar cloud data warehouse experience.
• Prior experience mentoring engineers or leading technical enablement programs.
• Experience migrating legacy BI tools (Tableau, Power BI, Looker) to custom-built solutions.
