• Joining the Partnerships org, whose mission is to drive patient starts through strategic collaborations with payers, providers, health systems, PCPs, employers, brokers, and other partners, you’ll report to an Engineering Manager and build software that expands our addressable population, enables seamless access to care, and positions Rula as a differentiated strategic partner to the employers and EAPs we work with

• This is a unique opportunity to own a full-stack product surface end to end, from employer-facing tools to the patient and provider flows that deliver on the benefit, with a direct and measurable impact on how many people get connected to care

Benefits
