About this role
This full-time Web Engineer role develops and operates the company’s meal-support services for patients and other users. The main work covers the company website and related applications, including both server-side and front-end implementation. Responsibilities include proposing user-focused improvements, identifying usability issues, coordinating implementation work, and designing and developing APIs, models, and databases with Ruby on Rails. Front-end development uses React.js, TypeScript, Haml, and Sass. The role also contributes to infrastructure construction using AWS and GCP.
The products include a personalized meal-support application that helps users search recipes and create meal plans according to health conditions such as illness prevention and disease management. The company also provides business and business-to-business-to-consumer services using its food content and lifestyle data, including support for healthcare communication in the pharmaceutical and food industries. Web engineers may work across mobile application APIs, business systems, and machine-learning pipelines.
Applicants must have at least three years of web application development experience in either server-side or front-end development. Experience with Ruby on Rails, React.js or Vue.js SPA implementation, AWS or GCP infrastructure construction, collaborative development with GitHub, development project management, and building or operating media services with WordPress is welcomed.
The engineering organization has approximately 20 engineers and works with nutritionists and members of other functions. Engineers are expected to take part in service planning, implementation, and evaluation of user-growth initiatives while reviewing performance indicators. The development process gives engineers discretion over both service improvements and technology choices, and source-code review by other engineers is required.
A MacBook Pro is provided. AWS is the primary infrastructure platform, with services deployed on ECS; GCP is used for analytics and machine-learning work, and CircleCI is used by most services for continuous integration. The office uses a free-address arrangement, with work areas including indoor and outdoor spaces and lounge rooms. The job is based in Tokyo, and online interviews are available.
