Our Principal Software Engineer opening rewards depth over breadth: pick Vue.js, go deep, and let Houston Methodist handle the rest of the stack. You'll take full ownership of MySQL initiatives, work alongside a strong team, and earn $214,000 - $305,000 in this remote role.

- Trace an empowering technology bug across three Google Cloud services to the one bad line
- Review pull requests and uphold engineering standards across the technology team
- Reproduce the flat-and-fast bug from the Daly City field report, then make it impossible again
- Reverse-engineer the playfully-serious Microsoft Azure format Houston Methodist inherited and never documented

- Comfort working in a fast-paced, flat-and-fast environment
- Comfort defending a recommendation in front of skeptics
