Employer job description
From Pomelo Care's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Pomelo Care is the leading virtual medical practice for women and children, providing care across pregnancy, postpartum, pediatrics, menopause, and perimenopause. We combine proactive, 24/7 clinical care with technology that helps us reach patients earlier, identify risks sooner, and deliver personalized care throughout their journey. Our team includes clinicians, technologists, operators, and problem-solvers working together to make high-quality care more accessible for families nationwide.
About The Role
Your North Star:
You'll serve as the technical lead for how patients interact with Pomelo from the moment they enroll through their entire care journey.
We can only meaningfully improve health outcomes if patients are highly engaged in their care and trust our team. The earlier we start providing care, the more likely we can affect outcomes, which puts this role at the very center of our mission.
You will focus on driving proactive patient engagement, personalizing care experiences to individual needs to move health outcomes, building habits that make Pomelo the first point of contact during pregnancy, and creating scalable engagement models that don't always require direct clinical intervention.
You’ll bring this focus to life by shaping the end-to-end patient experience—building features that check in with patients throughout their journey, triage urgent needs, make high-quality care effortless, and ensure every patient feels deeply supported.
This role reports to the Director of Engineering and is open to any candidates located in the continental US.

- Talk directly to patients and partner with product, design, and clinical teams to turn real needs into real features

- Set the technical standards, architecture patterns, and development practices that our patient-facing products are built on Who you are
- 6+ years of experience building and shipping consumer or patient-facing products

- Comfortable working across the full stack and moving quickly in a startup environment
- Up to date with key with trends in LLM coding agents to multiply your engineering impact
- Enjoy collaborating closely with product and design, not just executing on specs
- Experience with React Native or cross-platform mobile frameworks
- Built products in healthcare, wellness, or other high-trust consumer domains
- Have worked on engagement, retention, or onboarding flows and understand what makes users stick around
- Have prior experience with AI/ML or building agent-based systems
