About Our Client

Our client is a venture-backed, seed-stage company powering the next generation of wellness businesses with clinical infrastructure built for growth. They're building a platform that enables wellness businesses to offer clinical services they currently can't provide on their own, including blood testing, prescriptions, and peptides, supervised by a clinical team. Think Shopify for wellness businesses. The founding team has done this before: Harvard Business School MBAs and a second-time founder, alongside operators and executives who've taken startups through exits as founding-team members. They're backed by top venture capital firms. The tailwinds are massive: peptides going mainstream, GLP-1s unlocking the category, the longevity movement in full swing, and AI unlocking what wasn't possible a year ago. This is still an early team, which means every hire matters.

About the Role

Our client is hiring a senior full-stack engineer to build their platform alongside the CTO and founders. This is a full-stack role with a front-end lean. You'll spend most of your time crafting the consumer and partner-facing interfaces that operators and their clients touch every day, while still owning the backend work needed to ship features end-to-end. You'll work directly with the CTO, an experienced healthtech engineer who's built and scaled products through multiple acquisitions and mentors engineers in a top AI Masters program. He'll be your manager, your code reviewer, and your mentor.

Responsibilities

  • Build the interfaces customers see and touch: consumer, partner-facing, and clinician-facing portals that are polished, fast, and intuitive. UX matters here.
  • Own features end-to-end: from fuzzy problem ("operators want X") to shipped product (the page, the API, the migration, the analytics), all of it.
  • Work full-stack, with most of your day in the front end and the rest in the backend services that power what you're building.
  • Partner closely with the designer to ship polished UI. You care about the difference between "it works" and "it feels great to use."
  • Leverage AI tooling throughout the SDLC: write, review, and deploy with AI where it helps. Speed matters. So does quality.
  • Work across a small cross-functional team, including clinical ops, product, design, and sales. No throwing things over the wall.
  • Engineer for simplicity: bias toward minimal dependencies, boring technology where it matters, and architecture that scales without ceremony.

How We Work

  • Ship often: the team deploys daily, instruments what matters, and fixes forward.
  • Boring foundations, exciting features: proven technology for the core so the team can experiment freely at the edges.
  • Customers first: every decision starts with the operator, clinician, or consumer using what gets built.
  • Real ownership: you touch the whole stack and see the impact of your work in the business, fast.
  • Low ego: they hire people who care about the work, not the optics.

Requirements

  • 4–7 years writing production software. Quality and ownership matter more than years.
  • Deep TypeScript and React/Next.js fluency: you've shipped complex, polished interfaces and think about component architecture, state management, performance, and accessibility.
  • Strong design sensibility: you can take a Figma file and ship something that feels exactly right, and push back when something could be better.
  • A modern typed backend language in production: you're not a front-end specialist; you can build the API your front-end consumes.
  • API design experience (GraphQL, REST), schemas, contracts, versioning.
  • Comfortable with a cloud platform (GCP, AWS, or Azure) and infrastructure configuration.
  • A track record of owning features end-to-end, not just pieces.
  • Clear writing and strong async communication, which is critical for a small team moving fast.
  • High agency: you spot what needs to be built, scope it, build it, ship it. You don't wait for a perfect spec.

Nice to Have

  • GraphQL at real scale (schema design, performance, tooling)
  • Animation libraries (Framer Motion, GSAP) or advanced CSS/Tailwind work
  • Design system experience, either building or maintaining one
  • Comfort with tracing, metrics, and structured logs

Why This Role

This is a founding-team-caliber seat at a seed-stage company with real momentum and one of the strongest tailwinds in healthtech. You'll work directly with a CTO who's built and scaled healthtech products through multiple acquisitions, founders with deep operating experience, and a team small enough that your decisions matter. You'll own real product surface, not slivers. If you want a front-row seat to building a company from the very early phases, this is that seat.

Location: New York City (Midtown)
Schedule: Hybrid, 2–3 days in-office, remainder remote

  • Equity: meaningful founding-team equity grant
  • Health benefits: medical, dental, and vision (100% covered)
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Commuter benefits
  • One Medical membership
  • Peloton Digital membership

  • $150 monthly reimbursement for the company's products
