Senior Software Engineer - Frontend

About the Role

Hinge Health is a digital health company focused on delivering evidence-based solutions for musculoskeletal (MSK) pain. By combining personalized exercise therapy with virtual care, Hinge Health empowers individuals to manage and reduce chronic pain—improving quality of life and reducing healthcare costs. We partner with employers and health plans to provide these solutions at scale, helping organizations enhance employee health and productivity.

With the launch of HingeSelect, we’re taking the next big step: integrating digital and in-person care for improved outcomes and a better member experience. 

We are looking for a Front-End Software Engineer who is passionate about creating exceptional user experiences using React and React Native. As an early member of the HingeSelect team, you will help build and shape this new product from the ground up. You’ll work closely with product managers, designers, and backend engineers to build scalable, performant, and accessible applications. 

This is a unique opportunity to contribute to a high-impact product in its early stages. You’ll play a key role in defining the technical foundations and ensuring a seamless and delightful experience for users. The ideal candidate thrives in cross-functional collaboration, is comfortable with ambiguity, and cares deeply about product quality and user experience. 

Front-End engineers contribute to their team’s success by designing and implementing beautiful, functional features in Hinge Health applications. Senior engineers take on end-to-end ownership of large-scale features, optimize app performance to ensure responsiveness and efficiency, and help maintain a high engineering bar through thoughtful, constructive code reviews.

Hinge Health software engineers work on interdisciplinary teams focused on different parts of the user journey. We operate with a continuous deployment DevOps culture, and take owner-operator pride in supporting our code in production. Our production systems rely on Golang, gRPC, React Native, React, Node.js, TypeScript, Nestjs, GraphQL, Docker, Rails, AWS, Postgres, Redis, Apollo, and Redux. Our workflow is trunk-based CI/CD, and our security/compliance posture is at the highest standards of healthcare, including HIPAA, HITRUST, SOC 2, and CCPA.

What You’ll Accomplish

• Deliver large projects that introduce new product capabilities, often acting as a maintainer for key code repositories.

• Break down complex problems into manageable tasks, ensuring steady and predictable delivery while identifying and resolving root causes of incidents.

• Collaborate with your team to roadmap and execute ambitious technical strategies, balancing short-term and long-term trade-offs.

• Mentor and support junior engineers, providing thoughtful code reviews and real-time pairing.

• Integrate and leverage AI technologies to automate processes and enhance product features, contributing to Hinge Health’s AI-driven care platform.

• Proactively improve the maintainability, availability, and performance of the team’s features, and contribute to the team’s overall architecture and developer tooling.

• Communicate technical ideas clearly to both technical and non-technical partners, and document solutions for future reference.

Employees in hybrid roles are required to be in the office 3 days per week, for the full 8 hours of a typical business day. The San Francisco office has a dog-friendly workplace program.
