Senior Software Engineer (Frontend)

New York, United States
Full-time

About the role

We are looking for a Senior Software Engineer (Frontend) with 5+ years of experience building production, consumer-facing frontend software to shape the experiences patients and physicians use every day at Counsel Health, an AI-native medical practice. This is not a "pure" frontend role like you'd find at a big company. We want an engineer with strong computer science fundamentals who specializes in frontend, understands the backend, and thinks about the second- and third-order effects of what they build. Counsel has grown to about 25 engineers and is moving from hiring only full-stack generalists to hiring specialists, so you'll have a lot of ownership over how our product looks and feels. You'll be helping to build the new front door to primary care: AI-augmented, supervised by physicians, and available 24/7.

What will you be doing?

  • Building and owning the patient experience across Counsel's messaging-first app and website, and keeping it polished, fast, and accessible
  • Building the "clinician cockpit," a screen packed with information for our in-house physicians, so they see the right data (including wearables data from partners like Oura) at the right time for every patient
  • Working closely with backend and internal AI teams to turn AI/LLM capabilities, enterprise partner integrations, and new chronic-condition care features into real product experiences
  • Shaping frontend architecture in TypeScript, React, and Next.js, including design systems, state management, testing, and web performance
  • Iterating quickly based on direct feedback from Counsel's own physicians (who are in our Slack), and working closely with a newly expanded Product team

About Counsel Health

Counsel’s mission is to multiply the world's healthcare capacity. We believe in a future in which every person has a personalized, AI-enabled doctor always in their pocket. To accomplish this, we are building an AI-first medical practice from the ground up that automates across the entire clinical stack, allowing our in-house clinicians to provide superhuman medical advice that is near-instant, highly personalized, and always available. We believe that collaborative care models that integrate clinicians and AI are the key to solving global healthcare access challenges.

Since our founding in 2023, we have formed partnerships with leading healthcare organizations and are on track to serve hundreds of thousands of patients on our platform within the next year. We have raised over $37M from top-tier VC firms, positioning us strongly to pursue our ambitious mission for years to come.

Our founding team includes experienced clinical and technology experts who have held senior roles at Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital, UCSF, the MIT Media Lab, NVIDIA, and Mount Sinai.

Join us as we build the future of AI in healthcare!
