Marigold Health is looking for an engineering leader to oversee our team and vision for architecting, implementing and scaling the platform that powers our virtual mental health and substance use recovery program. Marigold provides a combination of 1-1 coaching and 24/7 anonymous chat support groups accessed over phone, SMS, and app/web. Our Principal Engineer will take ownership of our existing codebase as well as the strategy and roadmap for building toward version 3.0 of our product offering. You will collaborate with our product, data science and clinical operations to improve the responsiveness, quality, scalability and reliability of our technology offering. You will lead security for our platform, designing, implementing and maintaining best practice security measures. You’ll contribute technical product vision, write software, identify product improvements, and work with a team of distributed software engineers. The engineering team you lead will be based largely outside the U.S. and you will be expected to work synchronously with them during set times. We are looking for someone who can dive into the details when needed, while also providing highly technical guidance, and leading and motivating other engineers.
About Marigold
Marigold Health exists to give every person with a mental health or substance use condition a place to feel heard. We have designed an asynchronous-first treatment program where patients support each other. We believe peers, individuals in recovery themselves who have received training to support others, can empower & engage those least likely to interact with current forms of care.
Interview Process:
After you submit your application, it will be reviewed by the hiring manager and select members of the team. If it seems like we’re a good fit for each other, we will follow up and schedule a 15-30 minute phone call with one of our teammates to get to know you.
If we jointly decide to move forward, you can plan to (virtually) attend a 45 video interview with a member of our Product Team. Next there will be a deeper technical conversation with our Founder and Chief Product Officer. The final stage would be to meet (2-4) other members of the team via video conference for additional conversations about your approach to collaboration, your relevant experience to current projects, and alignment with our values. All in, you can expect the time commitment for this stage to be 3-4 hours of synchronous interaction, scheduled to fit your needs.
If you complete interviews, we will provide a decision or clear next step within five business days.
We are ready to hire as soon as we find the right candidate. We can’t wait to meet you!
More about Marigold Health:
Marigold Health is an early-stage, rapidly growing startup providing services for a range of community based mental health and substance use treatment providers as well as national health insurers. We collaborate with eminent investigators at Brown University and Johns Hopkins and have been publicly recognized by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the American Psychiatric Association.
Our program is a combination of 1-1 coaching and 24/7 anonymous chat support groups accessed over phone, SMS, and app/web. On the backend, proprietary natural language processing tools scale our peer workforce by augmenting group moderation, automating patient outreach, and sending sentiment-based “alerts” to coordinate care with other providers. Following strong results from our first clinical studies, we are entering a period of rapid growth, and expect to expand from 2 states today to 12 by this time next year.
Our core values are authenticity, candor, and ambition. Inclusion is at the core of what we do. We’re working to bring care to the most underserved and stigmatized patients. We actively welcome applicants from a wealth of different backgrounds (including but not limited to race, gender, educational background, and sexual orientation). We must have diversity on our team and in our mindsets to be successful in moving the needle on the deeply entrenched and systematic challenges we face.
Marigold Health is an equal opportunity employer.
