About the Role
This is an early, high-ownership engineering position on a small product team at a well-funded healthtech startup. You'll be one of the first engineers focused on chat and real-time features, working directly alongside founding stakeholders to shape core systems that define the user experience and product direction. This is a rare opportunity to have lasting technical impact from day one.
What You'll Do
-
Design and implement core chat and real-time features for a production healthtech product.
-
Collaborate closely with a small, cross-functional founding team to define and execute technical direction.
-
Build reliable, scalable services and iterate quickly based on real user feedback.
-
Participate in architecture and design discussions, balancing speed-to-ship with long-term maintainability.
-
Own components end-to-end — from implementation and testing through to monitoring and observability.
What We're Looking For
-
Proven track record delivering production software in real-time or chat-related systems.
-
Strong engineering fundamentals with practical, full-stack experience building scalable, reliable services.
-
Comfort operating with high autonomy in a fast-moving, early-stage environment.
-
Experience collaborating effectively in remote or distributed teams.
-
Must be a U.S. citizen or Green Card holder — visa sponsorship is not available now or in the future.

Base salary: $135,000 – $155,000 per year
-
Equity: ~0.5% – 1.5%
-
Opportunity to shape the technical foundation of a high-growth healthtech product
