Job description

We're looking for engineers to upgrade the patient experience.

The software you experience at the doctor's office is often dated and terrible, but our software can plug into the doctor's legacy system and provide a modern experience: online scheduling, paperless check-in, interactive reminders, automated waitlist, payments, and more.

Patients get a great experience and the practices have less busy-work.

We're just 40 people, but we're the top-rated solution in our space and used by thousands of offices across the country.

We do things differently than most: we're smaller (by choice), and self-funded. This allows us to stay focused on our practices instead of trying to impress VCs.

As an engineer joining the team, this means greater ownership.

About the role

We're looking for high-performing individual contributors capable of leading development of a meaningful slice of the product.

This is a role for full-stack builders, someone capable of delivering best-in-category features.

You’ll be supported by a product manager, a graphic designer, and the co-founders.

You’ll stay in close contact with our account managers and the sales team to ensure new features are living up to their promise. You’ll join the occasional client call to gather feedback and hear about their challenges first-hand.

Health care experience is not needed. We'll teach you what you need to know about how a doctor's office works.

Our tech stack is Python and Postgres on Linux, with AI growing in importance.

Things we'll be looking for:

  • Track record of making significant contributions in past products

  • A start-up friendly temperament (comfortable with ambiguity and rapid change)

  • 10-ish or more years of experience

Perks of working at NextPatient:

  • Freedom to work from home

  • We encourage everyone to take a real 2-week vacation each year to somewhere amazing.

  • A year-end company-wide trip where you can get to know everyone in the company (Past years: Park City, Miami, Austin)

  • A mid-year team-wide trips with +1s, so your partner can meet the people you're always talking about (Chicago, SF, Vegas)

  • Comprehensive Health, dental, vision insurance

  • 401k with match

  • Generous PTO policy

  • 11 federally recognized holidays that we also observe

  • Fully paid Parental leave offered after 12 months tenure

Salary Range for this position: $250,000-$300,000
