Prosper Health is on a mission to make life happier and healthier for the 8 million autistic adults in the US. Autism prevalence is up >5x in the last 25 years, but autistic adults have been ignored by the traditional support and service system. This has contributed to alarmingly poor outcomes across mental and physical health, and vocational and social measures for autistic adults. Prosper Health is changing this by building a holistic suite of supports for autistic and neurodivergent adults.
Currently, we deliver best-in-class, specialized mental health services for autistic adults, covered by insurance. The response to our offering has been strong - in 18 months we have reached multiple millions of annualized revenue, >1,000 active clients, and ~100 clinicians.
The Role
As the second member of our engineering team, your work will serve as the foundation for the Prosper Health telehealth platform for years to come. You’ll write Typescript across the stack, use best-in-class healthcare APIs, figure out how to tackle messy healthcare problems, and drive our product direction. You’ll work closely with our engineering lead, the rest of the founding team, clinical providers, and patients.
What types of things you’ll work on:
- Clinician tooling - provide the tech stack so that clinicians can deliver best-in-class care that is driven by data and metrics.
- Easy patient intake – the patient experience should be seamless, and patients should only talk to a human if they want to.
- Automatic cost estimates for patients – we believe in pricing transparency and hate surprise bills.
- Iterating on our CI/CD pipeline, observability tools, and creating a delightful developer experience – we’ll continue to invest in best-in-class tools for our productivity and product’s reliability.
Our tech stack:
- Typescript monorepo deployed on Fly
- Node.js / Fastify
- React (and eventually React Native + Expo)
- Supabase for Postgres, auth, and storage
- tRPC for our typesafe API
- Prisma for our ORM
About You
- Experience building successful software, independently or as a part of a small team / early-stage startup
- Excited by an early stage environment and being one of the first engineering employees
- Scrappy, self-directed, detail oriented, and with strong communication skills
- In-person 2-5 days per week in Flatiron NYC office preferred but open to virtual for the right candidate
- 4+ years of experience, ideally with some experience at a startup
Process
If we interview you, you can expect the following process:
- An initial 30 minute conversation with Ben, our CEO
- A 30 minute conversation with Byrne, our Engineering Lead
- A take-home project
- An onsite interview in Flatiron NYC to meet the team
- We will speak with 1-2 references you provide
