Software Engineer II - San Francisco - Hinge-Health

Description

About the Role

At Hinge Health, software engineers work in small, cross-functional teams that own a specific slice of the member journey. As a frontend-leaning full-stack engineer you'll spend most of your time crafting fast, accessible, and visually polished user interfaces in React, while still dipping into our Node/NestJS GraphQL services when you need to shape or extend an API.

You'll partner closely with product managers, designers, and backend engineers to ship end-to-end features, keep our design system consistent, and make sure every screen feels effortless to use. In addition to contributing to valuable new features, software engineers pay down tech debt, spike on novel solutions, and share responsibility for healthy live site operation. We expect team members to use clear, concise language to navigate abstract solutions, provide constructive PR feedback, and actively participate in planning sessions and team meetings.

The Enrollment team's mission is to guide applicants and members through an intuitive, streamlined, and efficient enrollment process. We aim to set a foundation for sustainable habits of movement and improved musculoskeletal health. We are a hybrid team working across a handful of timezones with Pacific time core hours. The team uses remote pairing tools and collaborates frequently across all levels of seniority with an emphasis on empowering one another and leveling up as a team.

We enjoy a continuous deployment DevOps culture, and take owner‑operator pride in supporting our code in production. Our production systems rely on React Native, React, , 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.
