Prosper Health is on a mission to make life happier and healthier for autistic and neurodivergent adults. Despite rapid growth in known autism prevalence (up >5x in the last 25 years), autistic adults have been ignored by traditional services and support, leading to extremely poor outcomes across mental and physical health.
Prosper is addressing this gap by providing specialized, virtual mental health services for autistic adults, covered by insurance. Our innovative autism assessment diagnoses many of our clients for the first time in their lives. We pair that with individualized therapy that is tailored to the needs of autistic adults and community to help our clients find belonging and connection.
In just 18 months since founding, we have grown to double digit millions of run-rate revenue, thousands of active clients, and over 100 clinicians on our team, while raising funding from top investors.
Our ambition is bold: to reach and transform the lives of millions of autistic and neurodivergent adults.
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.
- 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
- 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
If we interview you, you can expect the following process:
- An initial 30 minute conversation with Ben, our CEO
