Founding Design Engineer

Readily

About Readily 30% of U.S. healthcare cost is administration . We’re fixing that. Readily is building the compliance layer for the healthcare industry. Billion-dollar healthcare organizations turn to Readily to analyze regulations, conduct audits, and automate compliance readiness with AI. We’re the fastest-growing company in this space - 10x revenue YoY . And we’re just getting started. There’s an old Yorkshire saying: “Where there’s muck, there’s brass.” Healthcare compliance is messy. But in that mess lies an enormous opportunity. If you’re hungry to take ownership and build systems that matter, this is it. About The Role We’re hiring a Design Engineer to join our founding team in building the future of healthcare compliance AI. You’ll work directly with the founders, owning entire product surface our customers touch – from design concept to shipped code. You’ll have founding-team-level ownership over design direction, the design system, and the frontend experience. Own the customer and the product – not just Figma mock-ups. 10× impact vs big tech. What You’ll Do Design and ship product features end-to-end (Figma → React/TypeScript → production). Translate messy compliance workflows – audit prep, universe scrubbing, regulatory tracking – into elegant product experiences. Build and maintain the design system: components, patterns, interaction standards that scale. Partner directly with customers – sit in on calls, understand their pain, design from that understanding. Own brand and visual identity across product, marketing site, and customer-facing materials. Make smart tradeoffs between polish, speed, and shipping. What We’re Looking For Strong across design + frontend code: Figma, React, TypeScript, CSS/Tailwind. Portfolio that shows both – design thinking and what actually shipped to production. Hunger: High agency, a willingness to learn, and a drive to do whatever it takes. Customer-obsessed: Confusing UX keeps you awake at night. Comfortable with complexity: You’ve designed for data-heavy B2B workflows, multi-step processes, or enterprise users – not just consumer apps. Intellectually humble: Low ego, high curiosity, collaborative. Biased toward action: You ship, you don’t wait for a spec. Why Join Readily First design engineer hire. You define the design culture, system, and visual language. Career-defining experience: set the bar for an entire product category that hasn't been designed well. Ever. Hyper-growth environment ( 10× YoY – you’ll feel it). A real chance to fix healthcare’s most expensive problem with AI. Weekly pickleball + a team that loves to win together. If you want true ownership and fix healthcare from its roots – we’d love to talk. #J-18808-Ljbffr
