August Health | Experienced Software Engineers, Designer | San Francisco or REMOTE | Full time We're working on a new company to improve how people age in our country. A demographic "perfect storm" is brewing over the next 25 years: (1) the 80+ population will double to more than 30 million people, (2) the family caregiver ratio will almost cut in half (and is further hurt as more children move away from their parents), and (3) as life expectancy rises, people are living for years with complex health issues and disability. And annual long term care costs are about $400 billion today. Our goal is to make a significant difference in care quality for elders and put a dent in healthcare costs in the country. - We're looking for some founding engineers to join us, both frontend and backend - especially those with several years of experience building and shipping complex applications. Our team has a pretty technical background and we like to balance building thoughtfully with getting things shipped. We recognize the power of design and are also planning to have a designer as one of our first full time hires. We're looking for an end-to-end product designer who can span user-research to full resolution mocks. Please email erez AT augusthealth.com. - Prior to this, we cofounded and sold a big-data mapping company, Mapsense, to Apple. Our team of 5 has a strong technical background and also includes a physician with years of experience with geriatric patients. We recently raised a round of financing from tier-1 VCs. The first few hires for a company set the engineering practices, philosophy, culture for the future - and we are looking for people who are excited by these parts of company building in addition to the technical parts. We're using scala and react for those that like to search for keywords, but it probably shouldn't be that important.
