Lead MoldCo's engineering efforts, develop tech strategy, code, manage teams, ensure compliance, and collaborate with stakeholders to enhance patient care.
About MoldCo
MoldCo is on a mission to transform the way patients find answers and care for mold-related and chronic inflammatory conditions. We combine cutting-edge diagnostics, digital care delivery, and a compassionate patient-first approach. As our Head of Engineering, you’ll lead the charge in building the technology backbone that powers this transformation.
The Role
We’re looking for a hands-on technical leader who loves building. Someone who’s equal parts coder, architect, and team-builder. You’ll own all things tech at MoldCo, from pushing commits to setting long-term strategy.
Responsibilities
- Own the full technology strategy and execution, aligning engineering with MoldCo’s mission, business priorities, and product roadmap.
- Write clean, scalable, and secure code while establishing engineering best practices.
- Design and maintain architecture and infrastructure that can scale with patient and provider demand.
- Collaborate with product, operations, clinical, and business stakeholders to translate needs into technical solutions.
- Craft platform flexibility to expand into other chronic condition treatment categories.
- Push the vision for and implement AI tools to advance provider and treatment efficiency.
- Ensure compliance with healthcare data regulations.
- Lead, mentor, and grow a high-performing engineering team.
- Define and implement processes around testing, CI/CD, documentation, and technical debt management.
- Evaluate and manage vendor relationships, tooling, and external integrations.
- Foster a collaborative, mission-driven engineering culture.
Qualifications
- History of shipping real code (6+ yrs) and leading real teams (2 yrs) - bonus points if both at once
- Proven ability to write and ship production-level code in a modern stack (Next.js).
- Experience scaling engineering teams from early-stage to growth-stage.
- Strong background in system design, architecture, and infrastructure.
- Deep understanding of security, privacy, and compliance in healthcare or another high-trust industry.
- Exceptional collaboration and communication skills across technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Passion for MoldCo’s mission and improving patient outcomes.
Nice to Have
- Experience in telehealth, digital health, or healthcare technology.
- Familiarity with HIPAA guidelines.
- Previous experience building patient or provider-facing platforms.
Sound Like You?
- You love moving fast and set a high bar for those around you.
- You love rolling up your sleeves to ship code, but you also think strategically about systems and teams.
- You thrive in early-stage, fast pace environments, where you can set the technical direction and processes from scratch.
- You’re energized by collaborating with product, business, and clinical partners, not just other engineers.
Why Join MoldCo
You’ll have the opportunity to shape the technical foundation of a mission-driven health company from the ground up. As part of the leadership team, you’ll own a core pillar of the business and your work will directly impact how patients access care and find answers that change their lives.
