About the Role
We are looking for a Staff Software Engineer to join Rula’s Patient Outcomes team. This team is focused on ensuring patients not only access care but also stay engaged long enough to see meaningful improvement. Today, that means tackling challenges around registration and activation—helping patients convert in the pipeline and get the help they need. Looking ahead, the team will expand into measurement-informed care: building systems to capture outcomes data, track progress, and continuously improve the patient journey.
As a Staff Engineer, you’ll play a central role in shaping this direction by bringing order to ambiguity, designing durable systems, and delivering software that directly impacts how patients experience care. You’ll partner with your Engineering Manager, working closely with product managers, designers, clinicians, and other engineers to align technical decisions with patient and business outcomes. Beyond your own contributions, you’ll amplify the effectiveness of the team by mentoring engineers, unblocking peers, and raising the technical bar across Rula.
Required Qualifications
8+ years of experience building and maintaining scalable, production-ready systems with measurable business.
Strong expertise in API design, data modeling, and building systems that are reliable, maintainable, and performant.
Experience designing and evolving system architectures with the ability to weigh tradeoffs and choose a suitable approach for the problem at hand.
Proven success leading complex technical projects across teams, shaping scope, estimates, and execution while aligning technical decisions with business goals.
Proven track record of collaboration and communication skills with the ability to build consensus, surface risks early, and bring clarity to ambiguous problem spaces.
Experience mentoring engineering, reviewing architectures, and raising the technical bar across teams.
Preferred Qualifications
Degree in Computer Science or equivalent practical experience.
Experience with data-intensive systems, including designing data pipelines, integrating data sources, or building systems that capture and analyze metrics.
Familiarity with modern infrastructure and tooling.
Comfortable participating in on-call rotations, troubleshooting complex production issues, and advocating for reliability improvements.
Prior experience in early-stage and/or high-growth startup environments and comfortable navigating ambiguity while influencing evolving roadmaps.
