Head / VP of Engineering

What we're looking for:

We're looking for a player-coach engineering leader with 6+ years of software engineering experience and 2-3+ years managing teams of 3+ engineers. You should be comfortable setting product vision and technical strategy at an early-stage startup while staying hands-on in the codebase. Bonus points if you have life sciences, genomics, or bioinformatics experience.

What you'll do:

- Define and own the technical strategy and product roadmap in partnership with the founding team, head of science, and VP of computational biology

- Take ownership of all internal and external-facing software products — including internal analysis tools, patient-facing portals, and physician-facing portals — and drive them from concept to delivery

- Lead and grow the engineering team from 1 engineer today, establishing high-performance culture, hiring processes, and lightweight engineering workflows

- Stay hands-on in the codebase: contribute code, review PRs, make architectural decisions, and roll up your sleeves when needed

- Build and maintain data infrastructure and pipelines that support comprehensive molecular profiling (whole exome sequencing, transcriptomics, single-cell analysis)

- Partner closely with computational biologists and PhD scientists to develop tools that accelerate their patient workups and research

- Communicate directly with the CEO and founding team on strategy, product priorities, and engineering investment decisions
