Job description

About Sprinter Health:

At Sprinter Health, our mission is reimagining how people access care by bringing it directly to their homes. Nearly 30% of patients in the U.S. skip preventive or chronic care simply because they can’t get to a doctor’s office. For many, the ER becomes their first touchpoint with the healthcare system—driving over $300B in avoidable costs every year.

By using the same technologies that power leading marketplace and last-mile platforms, we deliver care where people are, especially those who need it most. So far, we’ve supported more than 2 million patients across 22 states, completed 130,000+ in-home visits, and maintained a 92 NPS. Our team of clinicians, technologists, and operators have raised over $125M to date investors like a16z, General Catalyst, GV, and Accel and enjoy multi-year runway.

About the Role

Our engineering team has scaled from 12 to 40+ engineers in the past year, and we’re still growing fast. We’re looking for experienced mid- to senior-level Engineering Managers to help us navigate this next phase. You’ve led teams of around 10 engineers at varying levels, and you know how to build for scale—hiring, career development, mentorship, org design, and beyond. We have multiple teams tackling a wide range of technical challenges, and we’ll work with you to place you where your interests and strengths align.

Hybrid & Office Experience

We operate on a hybrid schedule, working from the office Monday through Thursday, with Fridays designated as work-from-anywhere days.

We care deeply about work-life balance and are happy to provide flexibility when life happens. We ask that employees be in the office Monday through Thursday to collaborate with their teams while maintaining flexibility where it matters most.

Lunch is provided every day, and the entire team takes an hour to eat together. It's one of the ways we stay connected outside of meetings. You'll usually find us playing a board game before getting back to work.

What you will do:

• Lead and grow a team of 8–12 engineers — recruiting, coaching, and guiding performance and career development.

• Stay close to the work with a full-stack engineering background, providing technical direction and unblockers when needed.

• Drive fast execution without compromising technical quality, especially in a high-growth, high-ambiguity environment.

• Partner closely with Product, Operations, and Data to deliver measurable impact for the business and our users.

• Shape team structure, culture, and processes as we continue to scale.

What you have done:

• 3+ years of experience managing and growing engineering teams (8+ engineers), including hiring, mentoring, and performance management

• 5+ years of hands‑on software engineering experience, with a focus on full‑stack development

• Proven ability to balance fast‑paced execution with technical excellence, particularly in startup or high‑growth environments

• Experience working cross‑functionally with product, operations, and data teams to drive business and customer impact

What gives you an edge:

• Experience in health tech, healthcare operations, or logistics (supply/demand, forecasting, inventory, routing, scheduling)

• Experience scaling backend systems to support rapid business growth and operational complexity

• Hands‑on experience with Big Data, data platforms, and data pipelines

• Experience managing in mid‑stage or growth‑stage startups, particularly in logistics-heavy, scheduling-driven, or operationally complex environments

• Understanding of data privacy, HIPAA compliance, and security best practices in healthcare or other regulated industries

Interview Process:

• We aim to complete the interview process between 2-3 weeks. It will usually consist of:

• Recruiter Screen (30-Minutes)

• Hiring Manager Introduction (30-Minutes)

• Technical Assessment (45-Minutes)

• Onsite Interview: Systems Design + Behavioral Interview + Lunch with the Team (3-hours)

• References

What we offer:

• Meaningful pre-IPO equity

• Medical, dental, and vision plans 100% paid for you and your dependents

• Flexible PTO + 10 paid holidays per year

• 401(k) with match

• 16-week parental leave policy for birthing parent, 8 weeks for all other parents

• HSA + FSA contributions

• Life insurance, plus short and long-term disability coverage

• Free daily lunch in-office

• Annual learning stipend
