About the role
We’re looking for a Senior Full-Stack Engineer to join our New Patient Experience team, a growth-focused product team responsible for improving the experience that guides patients from their first interaction through to their initial appointment. This team plays a pivotal role in Talkiatry’s mission by optimizing how new patients discover, evaluate, and begin care with us. As a senior engineer on this team, you’ll lead development of new features and systems that improve patient conversion rates, streamline the onboarding process, and ensure a seamless digital start-of-care experience. You’ll collaborate closely with product, design, and data to design and build reliable, extensible, and maintainable systems in TypeScript across both frontend and backend, running on AWS. About Talkiatry: Talkiatry transforms psychiatry with accessible, human, and responsible care. We’re a national mental health practice co-founded by a patient and a triple-board-certified psychiatrist to solve the problems both groups face in accessing and providing the highest quality treatment. 60% of adults in the U.S. with a diagnosable mental illness go untreated every year because care is inaccessible, while 45% of clinicians are out of network with insurers because reimbursement rates are low, and paperwork is unduly burdensome. With innovative technology and a human-centered philosophy, we provide patients with the care they need—and allow psychiatrists to focus on why they got into medicine. You will: Lead the design, development, and rollout of key product features and large-scale initiatives that directly impact patient growth and conversion. Write clear technical specifications, define architecture, and identify risks before project kickoffs. Champion engineering best practices—including code reviews, documentation, testing, and post-mortemsto improve team efficiency and code quality. Collaborate cross-functionally with product managers, designers, and analysts to translate growth goals into actionable, measurable features. Contribute across the stack: from building intuitive frontend experiences in React/TypeScript to designing robust backend services and APIs. Drive simplicity and scalability in system design to support rapid growth while maintaining reliability. Mentor teammates and, as needed, take on tech lead
