We believe that by providing quality care that is both evidence-based and compassionate, we can empower individuals to take charge of their mental health and achieve their full potential. We are passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of those struggling with mental health issues and we strive to be a force for positive change in the field of mental healthcare.

• Experience driving all phases of the development lifecycle: planning, execution, measuring success, and post-launch maintenance.

• Intermediate understanding of modern applications architecture, API design patterns, data modeling, security, performance, and scaling.

Preferred Qualifications

While having the preferred qualifications enhances your candidacy, having all of them is not mandatory. We encourage all interested applicants to apply, even those who may not meet every preferred requirement.

• Experience at growth-stage companies, migrating legacy systems to microservices.

• Demonstrable experience building sources of truth systems, leveraging events and workflows, that integrate with 3rd parties.

• Experience with NodeJS, Typescript, Kafka, AWS, or equivalent.

• Experience with HIPAA, FHIR/HL7, SOC2, or HITRUST compliance.

• Experience within healthcare and/or the mental health industry.
