About Us
We’re a fast-growing pre-Series A healthtech startup on a mission to improve healthcare using clinical algorithms. Backed by top-tier investors, we’ve experienced 5x growth in the past year and are entering a critical scaling phase. Our team of doctors, researchers, engineers, and data scientists is transforming clinical decision-making — and we’re just getting started.
To support this growth, we’re evolving our engineering culture to meet the demands of scale — where velocity, quality, autonomy, and accountability are not trade-offs but co-requirements.
What You’ll Do
- Build and Scale: Hire, lead, and retain high-performing engineers who thrive in fast-paced, high-accountability environments.
- Coach and Grow: Develop engineers technically and professionally through regular feedback, mentoring, and clear growth pathways.
- Elevate Standards: Drive engineering excellence through robust practices in code quality, system architecture, and delivery.
- Lead Cultural Shift: Help evolve the team from scrappy startup to world-class engineering org without losing speed or intensity.
- Own Delivery: Ensure teams consistently ship customer-centric features at pace and with precision.
- Champion Performance: Foster a high-output, high-trust environment where engineers take full ownership.
- Collaborate Deeply: Work cross-functionally with Product, Design, and Ops to align priorities and deliver outcomes.
About You
- Have 3+ years of engineering leadership experience in high-growth startups or scale-ups
- Have scaled teams or systems before—and are excited to do it again from an earlier stage
- Bring a strong product mindset—you care about solving real problems, not just writing code
- Know how to balance speed with rigor—you can ship fast without creating tech debt
- Are technically confident with Python, React, AWS, distributed systems (e.g., Kubernetes) and infra-as-code (e.g., Terraform), though you delegate more than you code
- Are obsessed with raising the bar—on hiring, execution, and accountability
- Thrive in environments with clear KPIs, sharp focus, and no room for mediocrity
What We Offer
- Competitive salary + meaningful equity
- Rapid career progression in a flat, high-ownership structure
- A unique opportunity to shape engineering culture during a hypergrowth phase
- A team of smart, motivated, multidisciplinary colleagues
- High trust, high autonomy, and meaningful work that impacts lives
We’re Not for Everyone
We move fast, expect a lot, and hold ourselves to high standards. If you're looking for stability or a gentle ramp-up, this might not be the place. But if you're excited by ownership, challenge, and building something truly impactful—we’d love to meet you.
Cherry Ventures is an equal opportunity employer and values diversity. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, colour, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, or disability status.
