Senior Mobile Engineer

Millions of people turn to search engines and social media for medical information, but these platforms can be overwhelming and filled with misinformation. That's why Roon was created.

Our interdisciplinary team of doctors, patients, caregivers, public health experts, designers, engineers, content creators, and ex-Pinterest executives has come together to reimagine how people access health information, with trust and expert curation at the forefront.

Today, Roon is a video-based medical Q&A platform, providing trusted answers to health questions. Thousands of experts from top medical institutions such as Harvard, Stanford, Yale, UCSF, Cornell, UPenn, Duke, and Columbia have contributed content and are sharing Roon with their patients.

Our ambition is to become the doctor in your pocket for all of health, blending world-class expertise with AI-driven assistance and guidance. And we’re just getting started!

As a senior front-end engineer, you’ll lead the development of our mobile app — check out “Roon— Answers from Doctors” on the Apple app store — and future doctor-facing products. You’ll architect solutions that not only solve today’s problems but are maintainable and scalable as we continue to grow. You’ll be responsible for building a high-performance mobile app experience. We really want to be the “doctor in your pocket.” You'll play a key role in ensuring our products deliver an intuitive, fast, and accessible experience for all users.

You love to learn. You have a thirst for knowledge and constantly seek to expand your understanding of the world. Your curiosity spans a wide range of topics, with a special passion for all things at the intersection of healthcare and technology.

You bring authentic care to everything you do, valuing each individual’s unique journey. You understand the profound impact that empathy and thoughtful attention can have on people’s lives.

Striving for excellence in your craft fuels you. You hold a high bar for yourself and what you work on but do so in a way that inspires others and brings joy to the process.

You dig beneath the surface, setting aside trendy thinking to arrive at insights and perspectives rooted in first principles. Your approach brings new, creative perspectives to solving problems.

Product and design sense. We are building for a population navigating difficult health conditions, so ensuring that our product is intuitive, accessible, and empathetic every step of the way is imperative. Engineers work closely with product and design - collaborating, ideating and even challenging the team if something doesn’t fall in line with our patient & caregiver first approach.

Leadership in Software Architecture. Beyond writing elegant code, you’ll focus on building scalable and maintainable infrastructure. This includes thoughtful performance optimizations to ensure smooth user interactions in our reusable components, state management, and cross-platform development. You have a deep understanding of “API-led” or “service oriented” architectures, using a JSON + REST data exchange model. Bonus points for having used GraphQL before. You’re experienced with security best practices for mobile applications.

Solid ReactNative and JavaScript experience. You know your hooks like the back of your hand. We’re going to build for both Android and iOS, and you understand the underpinnings of the native bridge and the judicious use of native modules. You can dive into Swift or Kotlin, but you can really throw down in JavaScript: you know exactly when to go full async/await, when to keep things elegant with a well-placed arrow function, and when to destructure objects like a pro. You’ve probably mapped and reduced more data than you can count—and we love that. You keep your Promises

Plenty of experience with mobile design. You know how to hang out in Figma.

We’d consider it a bonus if you’ve had experience in the health sector, but that isn’t a prerequisite. Your passion for a challenge in this space is.

You'll receive competitive and transparent pay and equity. And if you happen to live in cities like NYC or SF, where the cost of living is generally higher, we'll make pay adjustments accordingly. You can come and visit New York City, where we're based, whenever you want. You’ll be working with world-class doctors and health experts, touching our AI systems, and making a huge impact on the world.
