What are the responsibilities and job description for the Front-End Software Engineer (React/Typescript) position at Beacon Biosignals?
Beacon Biosignals is on a mission to revolutionize precision medicine for the brain. We are the leading at-home EEG platform supporting clinical development of novel therapeutics for neurological, psychiatric, and sleep disorders. Our FDA 510(k)-cleared Waveband EEG headband and AI algorithms enable quantitative biomarker discovery and implementation. Beacon’s Clinico-EEG database contains EEG data from nearly 100,000 patients, and our cloud-native analytics platform powers large-scale RWD/RWE retrospective and predictive studies. Beacon Biosignals is changing the way that patients are treated for any disorder that affects brain physiology.
As a Senior Front-End Engineer, you’ll help power Beacon's mission by building first-class web applications that
- drive forward new EEG analysis with data analytics capabilities
- manage clinical studies of novel therapeutics
- enable physicians to diagnose patients through at-home sleep tests
Beacon's robust asynchronous work practices ensure a first-class remote work experience, but we also have in-person office hubs located in Boston and New York.
