WellTheory is looking for a Senior Frontend Engineer to join our fully-remote team. In this role, you’ll have the opportunity to own our member-facing web application and build new features that help our members achieve their health goals. You’ll also collaborate with our Founding Engineer to build out Care Hub, our AI-native platform for care delivery, and incorporate cutting-edge AI technology into human-in-the-loop workflows to help our Care Team scale high-quality care to every member. This is a unique opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a mission-driven company trying to promote better health outcomes for folks with autoimmune disease.
You likely have 5-7 or more years of experience as a software engineer and our current tech stack includes Javascript, Typescript, React, React Native, Node, Postgres, and GCP. That said, you don't need to have experience with all of the components in our tech stack—we’re confident an experienced Senior Software Engineer can onboard onto our stack quickly!
We are looking for someone with strong software engineering fundamentals, strong written and verbal communication, and experience making foundational technical decisions and building at the 0-to-1 stage. Also, as a small team, we’re all generalists and constantly picking up new challenges. When it comes to product and code, we’re looking to work with experienced people who can pick a problem and solve it.
About you
These are not requirements but describe someone who might be a great fit for WellTheory and this role:
Customer-centric. You are singularly focused on customer needs throughout the entire software development life cycle.
Experienced in making foundational technical decisions at an early stage. You’ve built products or large features from scratch and know how to navigate the murky startup waters.
Strong written communicator. Since we are a small team and fully remote, creating documentation to help others ramp up easily will be key.
Battle-tested. You nerd out on building robust systems that help provide consistent value, and you have had to launch & maintain such systems in a production environment with real users for an extended period of time.
Able to scale yourself. You’re skilled at using AI tools to augment your impact as an individual contributor.
Bonus if you've worked in healthcare or really care about driving health outcomes in the autoimmune or women’s health space
Who We’re Looking For
Outside of the specific role, here are qualities that make someone successful at WellTheory:
Empathy for the autoimmune experience. You don’t need to have an autoimmune condition for this role but you need to have deep empathy for the lived experience of autoimmune patients and be able to effectively convey that to potential customers.
Beginner’s mindset. You have a love of learning and like to solve problems from the ground up. You’re a curious person and embrace the opportunity to explore the unfamiliar aspects of your role, ask questions, and seek understanding without fear of judgment. You openly admit when you make mistakes and are open-minded when it comes to new approaches of problem-solving.
Unreasonably relentless. You’ve been called a “force of nature” and have done something most people wouldn’t (e.g., ran a marathon, started a company, got a degree while working full-time, and/or overcame difficult adversities). Persistence is your middle name and you don’t give up easily.

About WellTheory
Autoimmune disease is one of the fastest-growing and most costly categories in healthcare today. It impacts over 50 million Americans and costs the system more than $160 billion annually. It’s also one of the most misunderstood. For too long, patients have been dismissed, unheard, and left without answers. WellTheory is on a mission to change that. We’re building something we wish had existed years ago on our own journeys — care that’s truly personalized, proactive, and rooted in compassion.
This is an exciting moment to join our team. We’ve raised $26.2M in funding and are backed by top-tier investors like General Catalyst, Accel, 7wire, Box Group and Up2 Opportunity Fund. In the past year, we’ve grown 10x in membership and 5x in revenue.
At WellTheory, we believe that anything can be achieved through pure will, determination, and grit and value teammates with a similar mentality. We are remote-first and use asynchronous tools like Linear, Loom, and Notion to collaborate across time zones and maximize heads down time. If this sounds like a good fit, we hope you’ll join us 🚀
