Head of Engineering

Role overview Lead engineering for a healthcare platform by connecting customer workflows with product and technical decisions. This is a hands-on player-coach position: you’ll contribute to production code while managing the engineering team, strengthening the platform, and establishing the processes needed for the next stage of growth.

Responsibilities - Work with customers and cross-functional partners to understand operational needs and shape the product roadmap. - Guide engineering decisions that improve the reliability, scalability, and extensibility of the core platform. - Set priorities, including deciding which opportunities the team should defer. - Manage and develop the engineering team, putting systems and processes in place to support growth. - Split time between hands-on software development and team leadership, with an approximately even balance. - Communicate technical and product trade-offs with engineers, executives, sales, and customers.

Requirements - Four to seven years of experience building and shipping production software. - Ability to work in Python, TypeScript, or a similar language. - Interest in applying technology and product thinking to healthcare. - Comfort working through ambiguity and choosing practical, impact-focused solutions. - An outcome-oriented approach to engineering, with strong empathy and communication. - Motivation to improve healthcare delivery and the experience of patients and care teams.

Nice to have - Experience in regulated or privacy-sensitive environments, such as those governed by HIPAA or SOC 2. - Examples of projects you have delivered and can share.

Benefits and work setup - Work has direct application in clinics and care settings, with opportunities to influence product direction. - The role works across engineering, product, and clinical contexts on healthcare delivery challenges.
