Founding Full Stack Engineer
About The Role
We're an early-stage healthtech SaaS company building a unified platform that helps large healthcare organizations — including complex, multi-hospital systems — measure, manage, and prove the ROI of their nursing excellence programs. Think professional governance, clinical ladder programs, evidence-based practice, and designation readiness, all in one enterprise-grade product. As a Founding Full Stack Engineer, you'll own architecture and implementation across multiple integrated products. You'll design the core infrastructure, data models, and AI-driven workflows that translate customer insights directly into shipped features — and you'll help set the engineering standards that allow us to scale securely across enterprise healthcare customers. This is a senior, hands-on founding role with significant scope and ownership. You won't just build features — you'll shape how we build everything.
What You'll Do
- Own architecture and implementation across four integrated product areas
- Design data models that support complex multi-hospital and multi-unit organizational structures
- Build AI-assisted workflows for document authoring, evidence organization, and retrieval
- Implement enterprise-grade infrastructure including SSO/SAML, RBAC, audit logging, and HRIS integrations
- Translate customer conversations and domain knowledge into concrete, shipped product features
- Define and own CI/CD pipelines, testing strategies, and architectural standards for a growing engineering team
- Collaborate closely with product and non-technical stakeholders to align engineering work with clinical and operational needs
What We're Looking For
Must-haves:
- 5+ years building and delivering production SaaS products with end-to-end ownership
- Strong full-stack proficiency with TypeScript, React, and Node.js in production environments
- Proven backend design experience for multi-tenant, workflow-heavy applications
- Hands-on experience implementing enterprise auth systems (SSO/SAML) and integrations such as RBAC, audit logging, and HRIS
- Demonstrated ability to own architecture and execution in an early-stage startup environment
- Experience defining CI/CD pipelines, testing strategies, and architectural standards for growing teams
- Strong communicator — comfortable working directly with non-technical domain experts and enterprise customers
Nice-to-haves:
- Hands-on experience with AI-assisted workflows for writing, evidence organization, or document retrieval
- Familiarity with Next.js, PostgreSQL, Supabase, Vercel, or AWS S3
- Experience with data modeling for multi-hospital or multi-unit organizational structures
- Background in healthcare, clinical workflows, or regulated industries
Compensation & Benefits
- Salary: $135,000 – $155,000 per year
- Early-stage equity commensurate with a founding engineering role
- Opportunity to shape the technical direction of a company from the ground up
