Decentralized Healthtech - Junior Software Engineer

Overview

We need a junior software engineer interested in healthcare and biology.

The application has to do with building tools that curate massive volumes of data, enable self-experimentation, and help shape a decentralized healthcare ecosystem.

What we need:

1. Programming Knolwedge across the stack You need to be able to write React and Python.

We encourage the assistance of Claude Code or another assistant of your choice. Heck, experience with a coding assistant is essentially a requirement unless you are surprisingly efficient manually.

But we also need code to be in tip-top shape, so knowledge and understanding of programming across the stack is a must (the stack here meaning: from category theory into how a von Neumann machine works into applied typing systems into perfect understanding of JS, React, and Python).

1. Healthcare and Bio Knowledge
   You need to have some understanding of bio or medicine, or otherwise want to learn it.
   If you can get yourself up to speed using gpt and youtube courses by the time we talk, that should be sufficient.

2. Ownership & Critical Thinking
   You need to own the product(s) that you are working on.

You'll have plenty of mentorship from a senior engineer and/or the CTO, both of which have multiple successful companies under their belt.

You need to be able to take high-level advice and direction then apply it.

We're not hiring for your ability to write code (LLMs do that just fine), we're hiring for your ability to think. In other words: you're not here to solve problems, you're here to help us define what the problems are.

Perks:

• Above market compensation
• Equity (the fairly liquid kind)
• Fully remote
• Make your own schedule (minimal meetings, no bullshit culture)
• Early member of a company lead by successful ex founders with connections i.e. in 2 years time any/all career paths (from raising to becoming a senior at a fancy SF corp) should be wide open if you do a good job

As the first 3 items in your application please provide:

1. A link to the most awesome project you've built thus far (e.g. a GitHub repo)
2. A short intro about yourself
3. A tl;dr of your previous work experience / projects

These should be necessary and sufficient to get accepted into an interview.

P.S. Wellfound generates a ton of LLM spam (I mean, for every 2 applications there are 300 automated messages)—so please follow the instructions above, otherwise I might automatically filter you out and miss the chance to learn more about you.
