Job Description
Ping is a HIPAA-compliant messaging app for the healthcare industry – the “WhatsApp for healthcare.” This company/app has a huge, completely unmet TAM, and has the potential for a $50B valuation if we execute correctly.
Role Overview
- The Founder is a physician-entrepreneur with a history of business success in the healthcare industry
- The COO is also experienced in healthcare business operations and development
- What we need to complete the triumvirate is a smart, skilled, experienced, ambitious software engineer
Key Responsibilities
- Must be able to create what will essentially be a WhatsApp clone, with a short list of HIPAA security requirements bolted on (we know what these are and already have them incorporated into our current MVP)
- v1 will only need the basic functionality – i.e. messaging, groups, attachments (PDFs, JPEGs), sharing so others can download, register, and start using
- For PC as a web app, iPhone, and Android (again, just like WhatsApp)
- It must be functional and fast, without errors or bugs, and with strong UI/UX
- HIPAA requirements:
- ID verification to register
- Encryption in transit and at rest
- Audit trail
- Business Associates Agreement (easy)
- Ephemeral messaging
- Usability testing can be done with us and some admin people we work with
- This would ideally be created in under 6 weeks
Then…
- We launch in Beta with 10-100 users… do more usability testing and fine-tuning… and get product validation/Product-Market Fit
- Then we get VC investment and blitzscale
- At this point, you’d transition to a Chief Product Officer role… still coding, but also recruiting more engineers, and overseeing them, as we add improvements and features
Qualifications
- Entrepreneurial mindset and drive, resilience, ability to overcome the inevitable obstacles we’ll face
- Endurance to code long, hard, and meticulously, to create a high quality, fast app
- Expertise and experience with software engineering for secure, real-time messaging applications
- Expertise in mobile development and backend systems
- Proven experience handling cloud infrastructure for high-scale apps supporting [eventually] millions of users
- Strong leadership skills with a track record of building and scaling tech teams
What We Offer
- Option A, Early, key employee: Annual salary, paid biweekly payments, stock options in the future (potential to become multimillionaire)
- Option B, Cofounder: Discounted salary in exchange for equity stake (potential to become billionaire)
- Option C, Cofounder: No salary in exchange for larger equity stake (potential to become multibillionaire)
How to Apply
- CV with brief cover narrative – why you’re interesting in working with us, experience in developing messaging apps, experience in prior tech companies, knowledge/experience in the healthcare industry
- GitHub/portfolio
- We’ll review submissions and invite select candidates for video interviews
Job Type: Full-time
