Founding Engineer

» About Untether Labs:

Untether Labs is a workforce management platform meant for managing large health systems and digital mental health clinics. Our scheduling platform’s AI-powered scheduling tools ensure that doctors and nurses are scheduled in ways that empower them - optimizing the number of patients they see and their own personal satisfaction with their work.

We’ve rolled out with a handful of large contracts already (totaling ~1000 providers scheduled using our tools), and we’re looking to expand our team in order to tackle our biggest contract and challenge yet - replacing an existing $22 billion dollar software company from scratch!

» About our team:

Our team is a group of five engineers, embodying a 'small but mighty' spirit! We are defined by our kindness, autonomy, bias for action, and supportive accountability. We're a team that's determined to win by supporting healthcare providers to give the best care possible. More about us here: https://untetherlabs.com/about

WHAT YOU'LL DO

» Responsibilities:

We have an ambitious goal for the next 6-12 months (and the many years to come) - replace existing multi-billion dollar WFM software to enable better healthcare outcomes and margins for hospitals. It’s an ambitious goal, and we’ll need ambitious teammates to build out dozens of enterprise-grade features in the coming months. You’re a great fit for our team if:

• You love to work directly with users (every engineer meets with our customers multiple times a week)
• You crave autonomy and ownership (we all are building out entire feature-lines independently, although we love chatting and working together when we can)
• You’re incredibly fast and tactical (there’s a lot to build so velocity is key - the best product teams ship fast and frequently)
• You know how to build software that will last (our new product lines quickly go from 0 users → 1000’s of users in months, so being prepared to scale is critical)
• You’ve done this before (we love former founders + early stage founding engineers! All great talent is welcome of course)

WHO YOU ARE

» Minimum requirements:

• 5+ years in engineering across a wide range of products
• Can build features end-to-end across the entire stack, from design to prototype to launch
• Incredible attention to detail, especially around the business requirements of our users
• Thrive in a collaborative environment involving different functions, stakeholders, and subject matter experts
• Work great with a collaborative team, and help grow our culture and skills over time

» Preferred qualifications:

• Experience building applications using NextJs/Typescript (most of our stack uses this!)

• Deeply in tune with how to run and grow a business, and can cut through the noise to deliver outsized impact
• Demonstrated experience in leading large initiatives across teams with many stakeholders (enterprise software is done best with tactical thinkers)
• Strong, demonstrated communication & writing abilities, both in terms of documentation intended for end-users, and executive/strategic comms intended to manage stakeholder relations and large rollouts
