About the Role

This is a customer-facing engineering role at a pre-seed healthtech startup building staffing operations software for urgent care and emergency medicine groups.

• Contribute to product design and rapid prototyping, moving ideas to working code quickly.

What We're Looking For

• Hands-on experience with React for frontend development.

• Backend development experience with Node.js and/or Deno.

• Comfort writing SQL queries and working with relational databases.

• Experience deploying or operating services on AWS.

• Strong customer-facing communication skills — ability to work directly with clinical or operational stakeholders.

• A builder's mindset: you ship reliable software quickly and take ownership end-to-end.

• High emotional maturity and collaborative attitude; comfortable in a close-knit, in-person team environment.

• Open to frequent travel as part of the role.

• Early-career candidates and recent graduates are welcome to apply.

• Must be eligible to work in the US — no visa sponsorship available.
