The company (Geeky Medics)

We're a small, asynchronous, remote-first team of doctors, medical students, developers, and designers.

We currently have two senior Django developers who can dabble in front-end development, but we're now in search of a dedicated front-end engineer.

The company is entirely bootstrapped and profitable, having grown steadily since its founding 13 years ago.

The platform

The Geeky Medics platform helps healthcare students and professionals (predominantly medical students/doctors) to practise their clinical skills and refine their knowledge. We also have several innovative AI features, such as the ability to chat with virtual patients. In terms of scale, we have hundreds of thousands of users and are one of the most trusted brands in the space.

The stack

• Frontend: Bootstrap (v5), JavaScript and sprinklings of HTMX
• Backend: Django, Python, Postgres

Skills we're looking for

We are looking to find an experienced frontend engineer with a good sense of UI/UX design and who is familiar with Bootstrap (v5) and JavaScript. Given the project is built using Django, the ideal candidate would have a good understanding of Python to facilitate integrating front-end components independently (though we do have Django developers who can help out if needed).

The role

Part-time remote contractor role for two to three days a week to lead the implementation of new front-end features and enhancements to existing interfaces.

Hours & pay

We're hoping to find someone who can commit two to three days a week to begin with.

Pay would be on an agreed hourly/day rate basis, and the work itself would be fully remote and asynchronous.

Communication skills

Excellent communication skills are essential in the context of remote asynchronous work.
