    The Company Medely is a high-growth series-C technology start-up reimagining the future of healthcare work by providing an on-demand marketplace and workforce management tools. With the support of top-tier investors, Medely has quickly become a go-to platform for healthcare professionals to instantly access high-paying jobs with the freedom and flexibility to work when and where they want. As a fully remote team of sharp, collaborative, and entrepreneurial individuals, we are dedicated to redefining the way healthcare workers and facilities work together to provide for patients. We are looking for passionate and skilled professionals to join our team and help us take on tough challenges in this fast-expanding healthcare industry segment. Join us in our mission to transform the healthcare staffing industry and improve patient lives! The Role At Medely, we're transforming how healthcare professionals and facilities connect: faster, smarter, and at scale. Every experience we build helps nurses, clinicians, and hospitals focus less on logistics and more on care. As our Staff Front End Engineer, you'll lead the front end vision for one of our core product teams. You'll partner with backend and mobile engineers to design elegant, performant, and scalable user experiences that power both sides of our marketplace. From architecture decisions to mentoring engineers, you'll shape how healthcare staffing feels and functions in the modern era. The Impact You'll Make: Act as the front end technical lead for cross-functional, agile teams building high-impact web applications. Drive architecture decisions and code standards to ensure scalability, maintainability, and performance. Collaborate with product, design, and backend partners to translate ideas into delightful, accessible, and performant interfaces. Lead by example - write high-quality, testable code and perform thoughtful code reviews. Champion modern front end technologies, developer tools, and patterns to continuously evolve our stack. Mentor and elevate other engineers through knowledge sharing and collaboration. Who You Are: 7+ years of professional front end development experience, with deep expertise of 3+ years in React (including state management, animations, and Webpack). Strong understanding of JavaScript/TypeScript and modern frameworks; React Native experience is a plus. Proven experience leading or architecting complex, interactive applications end-to-end. Passion for design systems, performance optimization, and crafting exceptional user experiences. Track record of mentoring engineers and improving team culture and process. Collaborative mindset - you're equally comfortable whiteboarding solutions or rolling up your sleeves to ship them. Awareness of scalability and performance considerations across browsers and devices. BS/BA in Computer Science or related technical field (or equivalent practical experience). What Will Set You Apart You think beyond the code. You care about how things are built and why they matter to the user. You've owned complex, high-traffic web applications and made measurable improvements to performance, scalability, or developer experience. You have strong opinions, loosely held: you can articulate architectural decisions clearly but stay open to new ideas. You find joy in details: accessibility, animation timing, responsiveness - the subtle things that turn a good UI into a great one. Why Medely: Benefits & Perks Competitive Compensation: Based on experience and performance Long-term Incentives: 401k Healthcare Benefits: Full suite of benefits including medical, dental, and vision insurance Flexibility: We believe that work/life balance is important, so we offer flexible and unlimited PTO Paid parental leave Purpose: Join a growing mission-oriented startup that is modernizing the healthcare industry nationally! Ownership: Drive meaningful business impact on a team you'll help build and define! Remote: Work in a digital environment with all the tools to achieve your work as though you were in the office! We're an equal opportunity employer to all. We interview and hire applicants of all backgrounds, orientations, expressions, and identities. Work location is flexible if approved by Medely. Medely does not accept unsolicited resumes from agencies. We consider any resume (CV) or biography received from an agency or outside recruiter without prior approval from a member of the Medely Human Resources or Recruiting team to be unsolicited and gratuitous, and such submissions will not be recognized by Medely for purposes of “ownership” of the candidate.
