Our core development team is small and intentionally lean. Every team member has outsized impact on how the platform grows.
We value solutions that are understandable, maintainable, and right-sized. We ship small, testable increments and adjust based on what we learn. Our process is Kanban-style flow — not rigid sprints or bloated backlogs. We invest in tooling and observability so we can understand what's happening in production and move quickly with confidence.
We avoid silos. Engineers collaborate directly with product, clinical, and compliance stakeholders through shared ownership, not handoffs. The best outcomes come from close, cross-functional work - not heavyweight processes or long ticket queues.
This is a remote-first, high-autonomy environment. You need to be comfortable working independently, collaborating asynchronously, and shipping incrementally.
We are mission-driven: we're revolutionizing the way cardiovascular care is delivered
We are fast-paced & agile: we move quickly, iterate often, and value experimentation
We are an equal opportunity employer: we do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status
