We are COGVIO, a Czech company of ~25 professionals building our own digital products that automate complex tasks for the pharmaceutical industry. Our products help companies with medicine pricing and access to markets all over the world (EU, Canada, Gulf). Our software is used by 8 out of 10 biggest pharma companies in the Czech republic, incl. MSD, Novartis, Pfizer, etc.

Technically, we are building a Data Mesh platform that connects 200+ global sources of pricing and reimbursement data and delivers a new level of insights to our customers.

Our FE tech stack

• Languages: TypeScript, LESS.
• Frameworks: Tailwind, React with hooks, Jest, Parcel.
• Infrastructure: AWS, Docker, GitLab.

TEAM & DEV CULTURE

• Builders mindset without lifestyle startup BS.
• A self-motivated team of professionals with backgrounds in diverse startups (e.g. GoodData, DameJidlo, Smartlook, Rohlik.cz, Kiwi.com).
• Our founders Pavel Svítil, Tomáš Doležal, and Petr Bartoš have both deep domain expertise, and a successful track record. We are self-invested and have bootstrapped to the current scale.
• Seasoned DEV leaders Filip Procházka and Miky Štencl are always eager to help.
• Code quality assured with strict static analysis and code reviews.

Benefits

• Impact. Pharmaceutical companies, regulators, and health insurance companies have the same goal - to enable access to medicines for patients. The way it happens is complex and all stakeholders need to find common ground. We work for all the stakeholders and help to facilitate the process. At the end of the day, our work actually helps patients.
• True remote. We're remote-first and as long as you have a working internet connection, we don't care where you work from! We will need you to be able to sync up with us with the occasional video call, but apart from that, pick whatever timezone you want. You can work from offices in Prague or Brno if you want to.
• Diverse work. You'll be able to work on a variety of products so there is no chance you'll get bored.
• Growth. We are a small Czech company at the beginning of our journey. There are plenty of opportunities for you to grow personally and professionally. And if you stay, you get a share of a company as well (ESOP).

We won‘t be the best in the industry without a great team. We offer you:

• Remote work culture with no office hours.
• Negotiable vacation - 5 weeks minimum for senior level.
• Our own contracted coffee roastery.
• ESOP (employee stock option program).
• Fair and competitive salary (500 - 900 CZK/h).

Who are we looking for?

Somebody who cares. You care that customers get the value they are paying for. You care that the product is usable and reasonably performant. You care that the CI build is green. You care that the code you write will be a basis for a long and prosperous product lifetime and will be maintainable for years to come. You care about your own growth and welcome the challenge of having to learn new technologies. You care about doing your job well. We want a colleague that will challenge us and point out when something is inefficient or plain wrong. Somebody that will learn and grow with us. This doesn’t mean you have to be a senior or have a Ph.D. If you’re a junior developer, simply having the hunger to learn is good enough.

Qualifications

• Communication. Since we're remote-first, it's vital that you'll be able to work responsibly even without a boss breathing down your neck, independently if need be, and regularly reporting progress. With great freedom comes great responsibility. This is simpler if you choose to work from our offices, but even then you'll be required to be able to communicate with other remote people.
• Strong web development background. Most of our apps are web Single-Page applications backed by REST API and we're looking into gradually migrating those that aren't.

Do you want to make a real impact in the pharmaceutical industry, work for a company which fights for open data and help a Czech startups be more successful? Join us!
