- Exceptional people leadership skills with experience coaching engineers
- Deep experience delivering large-scale foundational infrastructure
- Strong judgment balancing engineering velocity with long-term technical quality
- Excellent collaboration skills with the ability to partner effectively across Product, Sales, and Customer Success

What the job involves
- We are seeking an experienced Engineering Manager to help build and scale our foundational platforms
- As NexHealth transforms how healthcare professionals deliver care and patients experience it, our internal systems must deliver top-tier quality and customer value at high velocity
- As a leading health tech company, we need to ensure that our customers have only the highest levels of trust in us and our systems—which encompasses data infrastructure, engineering excellence, and product and data security
- True innovation can only be sustained when the supporting systems encourage high-caliber engineering output and enable rapid iteration without incurring massive technical debt
- Your team will be responsible for building these systems from first principles—prototyping, productionizing solutions, and creating the rising tide that lifts all boats
- Delivering high quality features earlier and with safety and security is what truly makes our customers believe that we are the platform to be on
- This role will be based out of Toronto or Vancouver and embraces a hybrid working model that balances remote and onsite work (the specifics of which are at the discretion of NexHealth management)
- It is an excellent opportunity for a hands-on leader who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is passionate about engineering fundamentals and operational excellence in a complex problem space
- You'll be NexHealth's first engineer based in Canada — setting the technical and cultural tone for what will become a larger team as we expand our footprint north of the border
- Hire and develop world-class engineers to build a high-performing team
- Support engineers in their career growth through mentorship, feedback, and leadership development
- Ensure high technical standards through sound processes (e.g., architecture reviews, testing) and a strong engineering culture
- Partner with engineering and product leadership to define and execute long-term platform roadmaps
- Coordinate execution and collaborate across teams to deliver cross-cutting, high-impact initiatives
Our take
The lack of integrated medical records is one of the largest obstacles the healthcare industry faces. Clinics must organise appointments and manage both paper and electronic health records, a process which is time-consuming and error-prone.
NexHealth is setting out to change this by building its own data-sharing highway. The platform enables real-time scheduling of healthcare appointments, care-to-patient communications and digital record management. Not only does this help doctors digitise their practices and provide a better patient experience, but it also means developers at other healthcare companies can use NexHealth’s piping (rather than integrate with hundreds of different electronic health records).
In 2022, NexHealth reached a valuation of over $1B, solidifying its status as a Unicorn, and with the support of numerous investors, the company is poised for further expansion. That same year, it opened a new office in Utah (its largest physical presence), marking an exciting new chapter in NexHealth's journey, offering the chance for more groundbreaking work and the expansion of its team.
