Quantified Citizen | Senior Mobile Engineer | Senior Full Stack Engineer | Vancouver, BC | REMOTE | Full-Time

Quantified Citizen is a Canadian-based mobile health startup developing solutions to disrupt the clinical and health product research markets. We empower professional researchers to easily create their own scientific studies, while building a movement towards more timely insights into the latest health research for citizens of all kinds, with a particular emphasis on psychedelic research and therapy.

We are hiring experienced engineers to help us build out our mobile and web app products. We love product-minded engineers that are comfortable both managing a team and working independently, and love to contribute to product decisions. Our tech stack is built from the ground up on Elixir/Phoenix and Flutter/Dart.

We launched our flagship mobile research app [1] in November 2019 on the Joe Rogan Experience [2] and have since had over 35,000 iOS app installs with a 4.8 star rating. Among our flagship studies, we've partnered with world-famous mycologist Paul Stamets [3] on a UBC research ethics approved 12,000+ participant correlational study [4] on the effects of microdosing psychedelic substances on cognitive performance and mental health. We've also partnered with award-winning cinematographer Louie Schwartzberg on a 5,000 participant Gratitude Study.

Oso | Software Engineer, Developer Advocate, & Eng Manager | New York City (NYC) | Onsite or Remote

Over the last 15 years, companies like AWS, Stripe, and Twilio have helped developers offload anything not core to their apps so they can focus on what matters to their users. Despite a lot of progress in developer tooling, most developers still roll their own authorization.

You might start with something quick 'n dirty – some IF statements and roles in a database, which may not be pretty but gets the job done...until you need to add more features, and more features. And inevitably every team band-aids onto this system until they do a big refactor. This is lost time for an area that's not core to what most companies are trying to solve for their users, and what's more, no one on the team is feeling great about this work.

At Oso (backed by Sequoia), we're building the first batteries-included library for authorization so developers don't have to roll it on their own ever again. We're designing slick APIs to cut down the amount of time they spend getting their system set up, and building a fully-fledged policy engine and programming language (in Rust) under the hood to ensure they can customize their system however they need. We don't have any product managers – the engineers on the team are responsible for taking broad problems, experimenting with potential solutions and shipping a superhuman experience for our users.

The team members who join now will not only have a disproportionately large impact on the product, but also on the culture and future of the company.

We are based in NYC and hiring folks remote or onsite.

Stride | Senior Software Engineer, Platform Backend | Remote (US-only) / San Francisco, CA / Salt Lake City, UT

At Stride we're working on a benefits suite for what we believe is an underserved community – freelance and gig economy workers. We want to create economic security for anyone who works for themselves. We offer an easy way for 1099 workers to apply for health/dental/vision coverage. We're also expanding to other spaces like tax and financial management, so as to make it financially accessible for anybody who juggles multiple gigs, or is just pursuing a dream on their own.

As a business, we sit on a unique position and have partnerships with a ton of giant companies (think Doordash, Postmates, Instacart, and many more) who want to better serve their workforce. It's rare that a startup has a good mission and a good business, but here we are. We're currently in hyper-growth mode, and have expanded our Engineering team from 12 to 22 people in the last several months. This year we're planning for our revenue to multiply significantly. We are backed with plenty of capital ($38.9M) by world-class VCs like NEA, Venrock, F-Prime, and others.

On the engineering side we use Node, Typescript, Serverless, Terraform, GraphQL, Postgres, AWS Fargate/SQS/Lambda, Python, Scala/Akka and some cool machine learning models you're going to love hearing about. Your work will be mostly greenfield, and you'll get to have a leading voice on the future of our platform's architecture and infrastructure.

We have our beautiful headquarters located in SOMA (San Francisco) close to South Park, and will be opening a new office in Salt Lake City once the pandemic ends. That said, we are a remote-first company and nurture remote workers from all over the United States. We offer fantastic benefits (after all, it's our product!) and you'll be surrounded by the most driven, smartest people I know. We have a supportive, productive culture that's respectful of your own personal time and well-being.
