What we’re doing
WW Clinic/Sequence’s mission is to make healthcare more accessible, more transparent, and friendlier. We’re addressing America’s most pressing chronic conditions, starting with obesity, which affects over 50% of adults.
We do this by:
Connecting patients with board-certified obesity specialists to provide the highest quality of care, as well as access to the most effective weight management medications available
Assembling a team of health coaches to support our members in their journeys toward better health
Building a community for our members to share their experiences and learn from each other about healthy lifestyle practices
And of course, to tie these pieces together, we’re writing software that creates a seamless experience for our members and healthcare partners alike.
We believe that healthcare shouldn’t feel like work — it should feel fun, friendly, and personal.
Why now?
When it comes to startups, being at the right place at the right time can dramatically shift the odds in your favor. So why now for WW Clinic/Sequence?
The FDA recently approved an exceptionally effective compound, semaglutide, for use as a weight loss aid.
Telehealth is going through unprecedented growth. McKinsey reports that "[t]elehealth utilization has stabilized at levels 38X higher than before the pandemic."
These tailwinds grant us the opportunity to build something incredibly valuable, while also leaving a lasting positive impact on the lives of our customers.
The day-to-day:
We’re a full-stack Typescript shop, from our frontend (React) to our backend (Node) to our cloud infrastructure (CDK). This isomorphism makes it a breeze for our engineers to work everywhere across the stack on what they’re most excited about and what will have the biggest impact.
We do daily standups in which we go over our issues in Linear, hold demo lunches where we share what we’ve been working on, and spend a lot of time in Slack huddles.
You’ll contribute to core parts of our application stack, ranging from our customer-facing web application to our internal systems for automating insurance processes.
We enjoy working together and make frequent use of our office gong to celebrate milestones.
Who you are:
We care less about your resume, and more about your motivation and excitement to grow. We’re a lean team with very high expectations. You’ll have a great time if you’re an all-star performer who enjoys wearing many hats, pushing yourself to do a little better everyday, and having a lot of fun along the way.
You’ll be working in both the frontend and backend, interacting with databases, shipping maintainable code quickly, clearly communicating technical ideas to the team, and owning big pieces of our system.
With that said, here are a few things that we hope will describe you:
You have extensive experience building and shipping full-stack Typescript applications.
You’re a strong communicator and can elegantly describe complex technical concepts with clear and precise language.
You want work in an ultra-fast-paced early-stage startup environment.
