Job Description

Pomelo Care is the leading virtual medical practice for women and children, providing care across pregnancy, postpartum, pediatrics, menopause, and perimenopause. We combine proactive, 24/7 clinical care with technology that helps us reach patients earlier, identify risks sooner, and deliver personalized care throughout their journey.

What you'll do

As a Staff Software Engineer, you will define and guide technical direction by designing, building and scaling the technology that underpins Pomelo’s success. You will be a technical leader and a mentor to others. On any given day, you may:

  • Write exemplary code that sets the standard for the team, shipping high-impact features while architecting systems that scale effortlessly
  • Drive the technical direction and architecture of complex, distributed systems that enable our clinical team to deliver personalized, data-driven care at scale
  • Pioneer our AI-powered tools, designing and building agents that make clinicians drastically more efficient and effective
  • Elevate the game of those around you through mentorship, technical guidance, and fostering our culture of excellence and continuous learning
  • Partner with product and clinical leadership to shape the company's technical strategy, identifying breakthrough opportunities to ensure we are tackling the most impactful problems

Who you are

You’re a seasoned, product-minded, technical leader who is an expert in navigating ambiguity, identifying opportunities that have a lasting impact on the business, and raising the bar for the people around you. You’re equally comfortable talking to a customer as you are being handed a spec and you have a proven ability to translate user needs into high-quality technical solutions. In particular, you:

  • Have 10+ years of experience shipping high-quality, scalable software systems
  • Have an expert level of proficiency in system and relational database design and one or more languages like Java, C#, Kotlin, Python, Go, etc.
  • Have experience guiding technical teams in the development of applications with modern front-end frameworks like React or Vue.js
  • Are passionate about staying on the cutting-edge of agentic tooling to significantly accelerate delivery and amplify engineering impact
  • Have a track record of delivering elegant and maintainable solutions to complex problems that matter

We'll be super excited if you:

  • Have prior experience in AI/ML, natural language processing or building agent-based systems
  • Have previously worked in a fast-paced, product-oriented environment

Why you should join our team

By joining Pomelo, you will help shape the future of a fast-moving, well-funded and mission-driven startup that always puts the patient first. You will learn, grow and be challenged -- and have fun with your team while doing it. We strive to create an environment where employees from all backgrounds are respected. We also offer:

  • Competitive healthcare benefits
  • Generous equity compensation
  • Unlimited vacation
  • Membership in the First Round Network (a curated and confidential community with events, guides, thousands of Q&A questions, and opportunities for 1-1 mentorship)
