Description

Our Mission

Healthcare should work for patients, but it doesn’t. In their time of need, they call down outdated insurance directories. Then wait on hold. Then wait weeks for the privilege of a visit. Then wait in a room solely designed for waiting. Then wait for a surprise bill. In any other consumer industry, the companies delivering such a poor customer experience would not survive. But in healthcare, patients lack market power. Which means they are expected to accept the unacceptable.

 

Zocdoc’s mission is to give power to the patient. To do that, we’ve built the leading healthcare marketplace that makes it easy to find and book in-person or virtual care in all 50 states, across +200 specialties and +12k insurance plans. By giving patients the ability to see and choose, we give them power. In doing so, we can make healthcare work like every other consumer sector, where businesses compete for customers, not the other way around. In time, this will drive quality up and prices down. 

 

We’re 16 years old and the leader in our space, but we are still just getting started. If you like solving important, complex problems alongside deeply thoughtful, driven, and collaborative teammates, read on.

You’ll work to support our Product Engineering teams to improve their development workflows and ensure that the features Zocdoc builds are functional, secure, and resilient, enabling millions of patients to get the care they need. As a Zocdoc’r, you may be working remotely, but that doesn’t mean you’re working alone - you’ll work with a supportive team of great humans who are funny, intellectually curious, and passionate about giving power back to the patient!

  • A believer that diverse and inclusive teams and cultures are a non-negotiable 

 

Your day to day is…

  • Shipping code in languages like C#, GO, Python, and TypeScript to our engineering organization
  • Automating what can be automated and breaking down the barriers of traditional software development to increase developer productivity 
  • Making meaningful contributions as you own and release features that will impact our large engineering org which in turn will impact patients, doctors, and Zocdocr’s alike! 
  • Supporting our large product engineering org with their tooling, deployment, CI/CD pipelines, shared services, and cloud infrastructure needs
  • Mentoring your peers and colleagues, with the notion that helping others means learning and growing yourself 
  • Advocating for a productive and positive developer experience

 

You’ll be successful in this role if you have…

  • A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or equivalent engineering experience 
  • 5+ years of professional development experience 
  • Diverse experience with a variety of development tools and techniques. All the acronyms - AWS, CI, CD, IaC, APIs, etc. 
  • Successfully shipped tools for your fellow developers and deployed highly scalable and resilient consumer-facing products
  • Experience addressing performance issues and optimizing cloud native applications and microservices
  • Experience working across multiple areas of the technology stack with focus on backend development 
  • A passion for building platforms and understanding what makes a great platform - infrastructure as code, automation, libraries, APIs, and standardization 
  • Successfully mentored other engineers in the past and have encouraged your peers to use software development best practices for code testing and deployment 
  • Experience successfully working remotely, or with a distributed workforce preferred

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
