SafelyYou’s passionate mission is to empower safer, more person-centered care across senior living through world-leading AI, industry-changing hardware, and remote expert clinicians, significantly improving outcomes for residents while increasing peace of mind for families and reducing costs for communities.

Originating in 2015 as the doctoral research of CEO George Netscher—and inspired by his own family's experience with Alzheimer's disease—SafelyYou was spun out of UC Berkeley’s Artificial Intelligence Research Lab, one of the top five AI research groups in the world. And today, our company is solving critical challenges in senior living, from resident falls and ER visits to staffing concerns, length of stay, and NOI. All helping ensure that communities can focus on improved care for residents while still reaching their financial goals.

SafelyYou is one of five most innovative fall technologies referenced in the Senate Falls Report (2019), a winner of the McKnight’s Tech Partner of the Year, and has been named to Fortune’s Impact 20 list, which recognizes companies making people’s lives better through innovation.

As a Software Engineer on the Fleet Team, you will help maintain, improve, and extend the infrastructure that manages tends of thousands of edge devices deployed across care communities. You\'ll work on backend systems in Go or Python, contribute to internal tools, and take ownership of features and improvements that directly impact device health, over-the-air updates, and system observability. You will start to build your understanding of architecture and how systems fit together, while working within established frameworks and suggesting incremental improvements. This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys solving practical problems, learning from experienced teammates, and building reliable systems that make a real-world impact.

• Experience in at least one backend language, with a willingness to learn Go or Python
• Familiarity with REST APIs, microservices, and cloud platforms (AWS or GCP)
