Lead Engineer, UI/UX Transformation and React Modernization

Healthcare providers, poison control centers, and government departments need trusted evidence to protect patients and public health. Universities need reliable resources to educate the clinicians of tomorrow, while pharmaceutical organizations and health plans need timely insights to advance their work. Micromedex by Merative has been trusted by users around the world for over 50 years: Patient Safety: Impartial and curated clinical evidence that’s continually reviewed and updated to inform safe decision-making at the point of care and optimal patient outcomes. Clinical Efficiency: Innovative search functionality for fast insights, and seamless workflow integration in electronic health records (EHR) for clinical efficiency and enhanced digital maturity of your organization. Organizational Performance: Trusted resources on a single platform to enhance clinician experience, with tools to manage medication costs and support patient satisfaction, including HCAHPS scores. We are hiring a Lead Engineer to help redesign and modernize the user experience across the Micromedex portfolio. This is a hands-on, transformational technical leadership role for someone who can personally shape and build modern React product experiences while also influencing design direction, engineering standards, and delivery practices across teams. The role requires senior technical ownership, practical cross-team influence, and deep hands-on delivery, but not enterprise-wide principal architecture accountability. The role is UI/UX-led, with a strong focus on reimagining clinician, pharmacist, and healthcare organization workflows through modern interaction design, React application modernization, responsive and mobile-ready experiences, and faster translation of product ideas into intuitive product screens. The successful candidate will work closely with Product Management, UX Design, and Engineering to move from customer need and workflow concept into prototype, validated design, production-ready React implementation, testing, release, and rapid iteration. They should bring practical experience using AI across the SDLC, including design exploration, code assistance, test generation, refactoring, prototyping, and delivery acceleration. Backend engineering and architecture remain important, but the immediate mandate is focused on improving the usability, consistency, accessibility, and delivery speed of the Micromedex product experience.
