Company Description

We are building a revenue operating system that makes money management easier for senior living providers, with a focus on private-pay systems and the financial workflows that support senior care.

Our platform helps operators manage payments and financial operations more efficiently, while we expand into automation and tooling for claims processes involving Medicare and Medicaid. The business processes over $1 billion in payments annually across operators in more than 45 states, maintains net collection rates above 99%, and supports more than 40,000 family interactions every year.

Backed by leading venture investors and experienced startup and financial executives, the company is growing its engineering team and investing in its product experience. You'll work closely with the CTO as an early engineering hire, helping shape the frontend architecture, design system, and product direction.

This is an opportunity to build intuitive, reliable interfaces for a product with a meaningful impact on senior care operators, residents, and their families.

What You Will Do

• Build and evolve the design system: Help establish and improve reusable UI components, frontend patterns, and the design system as the product grows.

• Develop product-facing interfaces: Build intuitive dashboards, portals, and user-facing applications that support senior living operators and their financial workflows.

• Improve frontend architecture: Strengthen existing frontend systems and establish patterns that make the application easier to maintain and extend.

• Own features end-to-end: Take ownership of frontend projects from problem definition and design collaboration through implementation, testing, and delivery.

• Shape product direction: Collaborate with the CTO, product stakeholders, and cross-functional teammates to identify problems and develop effective user experiences.

• Improve frontend tooling: Propose and implement improvements to the frontend development workflow, component libraries, and supporting tools.

• Build accessible, user-friendly experiences: Translate complex operational and financial workflows into clear, reliable interfaces.

• Collaborate across functions: Work effectively with product, operations, and other non-technical stakeholders to understand user needs and deliver practical solutions.

• Operate with startup ownership: Help define engineering practices, make technical decisions, and contribute beyond narrowly scoped frontend tasks.

• Use AI-native workflows: Work in an environment that embraces AI-assisted development and encourages engineers to improve how they build and ship software.
