Junior Full-Stack Engineer

At DrOnline, we’re a fast-growing startup transforming healthcare through telemedicine. We’re passionate about making quality healthcare more accessible through seamless, patient-centered digital solutions. With a growing user base across Portugal, the UK, and Ireland, we’re building an intuitive and accessible digital platform that empowers people to take control of their health.

As we continue to grow, we're looking for a meticulous, curious and adaptable Full-Stack Engineer who can develop scalable software solutions that cater to both user experience and functionality. As a startup, we move fast and wear many hats — you'll be expected to work across multiple fronts (front-end, back-end, data, even mobile), and we're looking for someone who's eager to learn, take initiative, and grow alongside the company.

Your role will focus on designing, testing, and implementing software applications, and you will be involved in all stages and all areas of software development, from front-end to back-end. For this reason, it's expected that you're comfortable with both front-end and back-end coding languages, development frameworks, and third-party libraries.

Some of your day-to-day tasks will include the maintenance of Dr.Online websites, building user-facing products, designing and implementing databases and APIs, pipelines, managing infrastructure and writing tests.
