Job Description

Our mission at Oura is to empower every person to own their inner potential. Our award-winning products help our global community gain a deeper knowledge of their readiness, activity, and sleep quality by using their Oura Ring and its connected app. We've helped millions of people understand and improve their health by providing daily insights and practical steps to inspire healthy lifestyles.

Empowering the world starts with living our values and empowering our team. As a quickly growing company focused on helping people live healthier and happier lives, we ensure that our team members have what they need to do their best work — both in and out of the office.

We are looking for an experienced Engineer Manager in the USA to join our growing Women’s Health team. In this role, you will manage a squad of 6-8 talented mobile app engineers and help the team develop innovations at the intersection of wearable technology and Women’s Health. You and your team will have a broad impact, not only across key company initiatives but also industrywide, by improving women’s body literacy and giving women’s bodies a voice.

What you will do:

• Manage a team of Android and iOS engineers as they design, build, ship, and maintain Oura app features related to women’s bodies and women’s health.
• Oversee and manage the development and delivery of highly technical cross-functional projects, while collaborating closely with engineering teams and colleagues in the EU.
• Contribute to the planning and scoping of critical projects and own the execution and delivery of engineering efforts.
• Collaborate with stakeholders in Product, Design, Science, Research, Data Science, Regulatory, Marketing and other teams across our global organization.
• Mentor your reports to help develop their skills and foster professional growth.
• Provide technical leadership to your team; while you may no longer write code, you are still deeply technical and will contribute to, and sometimes lead, technical discussions.
• Evaluate trade-offs and make sound technical decisions that impact entire projects.
• Champion engineering excellence, establish key metrics, and drive continuous operational improvements.

This is a remote US role. Our main US office is in San Francisco and we have another office in San Diego. We also have employee hubs in New York City, Boston, Los Angeles, Seattle, and more, which allows employees an opportunity to gather informally for occasional local co-working.

Requirements

We would love to have you on our team if you have:

• Minimum of 5+ years experience in software engineering, of which 2+ years were as a manager of software engineers.
• Technical degree or equivalent software engineering work experience.
• Experience shipping consumer-facing mobile applications and/or the systems that power them.
• Experience with Agile/Scrum processes and ability to advocate for process improvements.
• Strong communication, project management, and delegation skills.
• Strong people management skills.
• Able to maintain a good work-life balance both for yourself and your team.
• A passion for meeting the underserved needs within women’s health.

We also appreciate if you have:

• 8+ years experience in software engineering, of which 4+ years were as a manager of software engineers.
• Prior professional experience in either Android or iOS app development.
• Experience delivering software products related to women’s health or wellness.
• Experience with FDA-regulated products or other regulated health industries.
• Experience with wearable devices and/or machine learning algorithms.
• Experience with complex projects that involve mobile, backend, data science, firmware and QA.
• Collaborative development experience working asynchronously with teams in different countries, time zones, and cultures.

Benefits

At Oura, we care about you and your well-being. Everyone here at Oura has a ring of their own and we are continually looking to improve employee health.

What we offer:

• Competitive salary and equity packages
• Health, dental, vision insurance, and mental health resources
• An Oura Ring of your own plus employee discounts for friends & family
• 20 days of paid time off plus 13 paid holidays plus 8 days of flexible wellness time off
• Paid sick leave and parental leave

Oura takes a market-based approach to pay, which may vary depending on your location. US locations are categorized into tiers based on a cost of labor index for that geographic area.

Oura is proud to be an equal opportunity workplace. We celebrate and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.
