Department
BSD SUR - OHNS: Thirty Million Words - Tech
The TMW Center for Early Learning + Public Health at the University of Chicago develops, tests, and implements evidence-based interventions designed to promote very young children’s cognitive and social-emotional development. TMW Center interventions are designed to be embedded into existing health, education, and social service systems working at scale in a given community in order to meet families where they already are.
The TMW Center has a robust research and development strategy that includes further development and testing of TMW interventions; harnessing technology to support behavior change, intervention engagement, and analysis; and furthering strategies to engage parents in the TMW Center’s interventions across the health, early learning, and social service sectors.
Job Summary
The Full Stack Engineer performs a variety of activities relating to software support and/or development. Provides analysis, design, development, debugging, and modification of computer code for end user applications, beta general releases, web pages, and production support. Troubleshoots problems using existing procedures to find a possible solution.
The TMW Center for Early Learning + Public Health (TMW Center) develops, tests, and implements evidence-based interventions designed to promote very young children’s cognitive and social-emotional development, with emerging technologies that enhance—rather than replace—the pivotal role that caregivers play in building healthy young brains.
Although there is a rich body of research demonstrating the importance of the early language environment for maximizing early learning, there are very ways to assess the quality of those environments. As a result, when it comes to nurturing their children’s brains, parents often feel like they are in a maze without a map.
The TMW Center has launched a wearable device and an accompanying app that uses machine learning to measure and analyze a child’s language environment and provide real-time information as well as personalized feedback and guidance for enhancing that environment. This groundbreaking piece of technology gives parents and caregivers with information they need to engage in robust brain-building interactions — and helps deepen caregiver-child connection.
We’re looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer with a strong focus on backend development to join our growing engineering team. Our ideal candidate will work primarily within our Django system, with additional contributions to a .NET platform that shares a React.js front end.
In this role, our ideal candidate will collaborate closely with other engineers, and the CTO to build, enhance, and maintain scalable software systems. While front-end engineers handle most UI development, our ideal candidate will bring a full-stack perspective — understanding how backend decisions affect the user experience and the overall system architecture.
