We Work Remotely

Help us build meaningful software in healthcare used by doctors, patients, and researchers worldwide. 


Our Company

Doxy.me is the simple, free, and secure telemedicine solution used by over 700,000 healthcare providers worldwide. Our mission is to eliminate barriers to telemedicine like cost and accessibility, so we are constantly striving to make doxy.me more accessible to everyone, everywhere.

Our Culture
  • Authentic. We are sincere and care personally. We don't let egos get in the way, getting to the right answer is more important than being right. We aren’t afraid to challenge someone directly, but not like a jerk. We focus on doing the right thing, we are the type of person who always takes the shopping cart back. 
  • Bright. We use our innate intelligence, talent, and curiosity to create simple, innovative, world-class solutions to problems. We just "get it". We are constantly seeking to increase our own brightness through self-improvement and combining our brightness with others.
  • Effective. We are hungry self-starters who will get the job done regardless of circumstances. We don't need to be managed or told what to do. We are reliable and pride ourselves in producing high-quality, world-class results on time. 


Overview

We are looking for the Engineering Manager to help us raise the bar of tech excellence and increase the effectiveness on the team and individual levels. 


As an Engineering Manager, you will direct the work of engineers to ensure the best practices around software development within two cross-functional teams (up to 10 engineers in total), contributing to the process of the design and development of the doxy.me application.


You will be expected to be responsible for the ongoing professional development of every engineer on your team. The role of the Engineering Manager is to support individuals, and your goal should be to enhance product development through the excellence of those on your team. You will be the primary point of contact for them to come to with any difficulties that they are facing. 


While you aren’t expected to spend a large percentage of time coding, you are expected to be able to evaluate and raise the technical bar and help others attain it. You will play a part in engineering, design reviews, code reviews, and will contribute to the code base directly when needed. You lead by example rather than authority.
