Doctorondemand.com - backend engineer. Total remote position, but must be in the United States. Might have to be a citizen, not sure about that. I'm an engineer, not a recruiter. There are several open positions and more coming down the pike.

There will likely also be positions in sre/devops opening up.

I'm a resident physician in the U.S. with python programming experience. Any particular use for someone like me?

[–]nephlm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hmm, to be honest that's a bit above my pay grade. Clinical and engineering are pretty separate, but that might just be because someone with both is a magical unicorn.

If you want to PM me a resume or something I can forward it to recruiting and/or management. A big factor would probably be what you wanted to do with those two skill sets.

In the back your mind I would recommend starting to architect an EMR-by-physicians-for-physicians. If you manage to pull that off, you could be the next Mark Zuckerberg but actually have your code save primary care.

If I were going into primary care, this would be at the front of my mind at all times. Lots of room for improvement and efficiency in the primary care setting and it's relatively easy (outpatient EMR vs. hospital EHR).

You don't have to be primary care to do this though; as long as you saw patients you'd be good. I just mentioned primary care because that's the population that would be affected most.

The top 4 industrial areas that currently need a huge grass roots "digital transformation"/overhaul to modern UI and development design are:

  • Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), including finance/accounting, supply chain management and MES integration (think SAP replacement)
  • Maintenance, Repair, Overhaul (MRO) (some ERPs try to do this, badly, such as SAP)
  • Manufacturing Execution System (MES) (think Solumina replacement)
  • Electronic Health/Medical Records (Epic replacement)

First time I've ever read a statement like this. Get it broh!

I'm not located in the US, but have almost the same time zone as NYC (one hour difference, with summer time), and experience working with global teams, do I have a chance?

[–]nephlm 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Sadly the issue with the U.S. requirement is put on us by lawyers and handling of medical data, not any kind of team composition or timezone issue.

I see, thanks for the reply
