About the role
- Product Development: Build the core features that make Jetty faster, smarter, and more delightful to use.
- Engineering Systems: Own the foundations that let a small team ship quickly and confidently - APIs, testing frameworks, developer tooling, deployment pipelines, and the systems that connect product, mobile, and intelligence.
- Infrastructure & Reliability: Build systems that scale gracefully, protect sensitive health data, and fail safely. Own CI/CD, observability, monitoring, and the engineering practices that keep Jetty reliable as usage grows.
- Technical Leadership: Set the bar for how we build: code quality, architecture, reviews, and engineering culture. Help create an environment where speed, craftsmanship, and pragmatism coexist.
- Build & Iterate: Know when to invest in foundations that compound, and when to move fast with simple solutions. You’ll do both every week.
- 3–8+ years of experience building software products, ideally in fast-moving startup environments.
- Strong across the stack, with deep backend engineering fundamentals and the ability to ship product end-to-end.
- Experience building reliable systems - APIs, data models, testing frameworks, CI/CD, observability, and the operational foundations that keep products fast and dependable.
- Strong product instincts and comfort working closely with design, product, mobile, and AI to turn ambiguous ideas into shipped features.
- Comfortable operating in early-stage ambiguity. You move quickly and make pragmatic decisions.
- Swift, mobile, or frontend product development experience.
- Experience with privacy-sensitive or health-related products.
- Experience with strongly typed or compiled languages like Go, Rust, or Java.
- Experience building AI-native products or integrating LLM-powered workflows into production systems.
- The opportunity to build a product that genuinely changes how people manage their health.
- The chance to work at the frontier of AI, building real products that push the boundaries of what intelligent, personalized software can do.
- Competitive salary & meaningful equity package.
- Real ownership and impact from day one.
