## About the role This is the first frontend hire outside the CTO. You will own the design and delivery of the interfaces that nurses, clinicians, and operators rely on to do their jobs: clinical dashboards, documentation workflows, staffing views, census management, and real-time alerts. Our users are professionals doing demanding work. The product needs to be fast, clear, and easy to trust. You will bring strong frontend engineering experience and enough design instinct to make good decisions about layout, hierarchy, and typography without needing everything defined for you. You will be hands-on building production interfaces and setting the frontend standard as the team grows. You will work directly with clinical leadership and operational domain experts — going to facilities, observing real workflows, and translating deep operational knowledge into product decisions. This is not a role where requirements come down from a PM. You will be in the room with the people who use the product. ## Responsibilities - Design and build the core clinical interfaces in React and TypeScript: dashboards, documentation workflows, staffing views, census management, and real-time alerting. - Own the information architecture and visual design of the product. Make thoughtful decisions about layout, hierarchy, and interaction patterns that reduce cognitive load for users doing clinical work. - Build and maintain a component library and design system that keeps the product consistent and makes future development faster. - Work directly with the CNO and facility operators. Visit facilities, observe how nurses and administrators actually use the product, and iterate based on what you learn. - Collaborate closely with the backend team to define API contracts and ensure the frontend and backend evolve together without friction. - Set the standard for frontend code quality, testing, performance, and accessibility across the product. - Contribute to hiring and growing the frontend team as the product scales. ## Requirements - Five or more years of frontend production engineering experience at a Senior or Staff level. - Strong React and TypeScript experience with a track record of building complex, data-dense interfaces in production. - Genuine design instinct. You have a good eye for information hierarchy, typography, and layout and you can make confident UI decisions without a designer in the room. - Experience building tools for professional or operational users, not just consumer products. You understand the difference between designing for delight and designing for efficiency under pressure. - Strong product orientation. You think about user outcomes, not just implementation. - An excellent communicator who can work directly with clinical stakeholders and non-technical operators and translate what they need into what gets built. - Willingness to travel periodically to facilities to see the product in real-world use. ## Nice to have - Experience building clinical or healthcare software, or any software used in high-stakes operational environments. - Familiarity with accessibility standards and WCAG compliance. - Experience building and maintaining design systems or component libraries at scale. - Prior experience building from scratch at an early-stage company, or direct time in the field with operator or clinical teams. ## Tech Stack - Primary language: TypeScript - Framework: React - Infrastructure: AWS ## Hiring Process We run an efficient process and adapt to candidate availability. - Initial screen with the hiring lead - Technical conversation: First, brief technical exercise and discussion. Then walk us through a project you built, with a focus on product decisions and design tradeoffs, not just implementation. - System design and product conversation with the CTO and CCO and meetings with core leadership - Final conversation with the CEO and CTO ## How to Apply Email your resume to [email protected] with a brief note about what you have built and why this kind of work interests you. If you have a portfolio or examples of interfaces you have shipped, include those too. We read every application.
