About the Job

We are looking for a highly driven, product-oriented engineer eager to join an early-stage team. Your primary responsibilities will include architecting, implementing, releasing, and supporting features that enable our collaborative care model. You'll work side by side with product owners, designers, and engineers to synthesize technical solutions from product requirements that deliver high impact for our customers and business. A commitment to collaborative problem solving, user-centric design, and creating high-quality products is essential.

About you: You have 3+ years of professional software engineering experience, at least 2 of which were developing full-stack commercial web applications. You excel at creating modular software that elegantly separates concerns. You design uniform, stateless RESTful APIs that are pragmatic and intuitive. You're fluent with SQL, designing schemas, and executing intermediate-level queries. You have proficiency with a dynamically typed language such as Javascript, Ruby, or Python. You understand that communication and collaboration are your biggest responsibilities as an engineer and actively focus on achieving shared context. You thrive in a fast-paced, product-oriented agile development environment where your sole focus is shipping software that delivers the most impact to your users and your business. You don't dwell on mistakes, you own them and use them as opportunities to learn and grow from. You demonstrate strong debugging skills because you're curious and seek to develop mastery of your tools and the system in which you're building. No matter how large, small, complex, or mundane the task, you follow through to the best of your ability and persevere through challenges. Your team enjoys collaborating with you. You love to teach and learn from your teammates and celebrate team successes.

Why you'll love working with us: You'll work with a small team of 9 supportive, brilliant engineers like yourself, delivering new products continuously. Your success will be visible and your work will impact the lives of our internal care team and patients. You'll use creativity to solve novel problems and be encouraged to learn new technologies to meet our business goals. You'll have a key role in shaping our engineering culture - from your team's technology choices to how we celebrate team wins. You will have dedicated career growth support from your manager who has both strong technical and people management experience.
