Role
Who you are
- 3+ years of experience building, shipping, and maintaining production-ready software systems
- Strong core engineering fundamentals, including solid skills in API design, data modeling, and developing clean, performant code
- Proven full-stack or specialized capability building user-facing product experiences (frontend frameworks, state management) OR robust backend services supporting user flows
- End-to-end feature ownership with a demonstrated ability to evaluate technical tradeoffs, raise risks early, and communicate technical concepts clearly
- Active experience utilizing AI-assisted development tools (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot) into your daily coding workflow with a distinct point of view on their strengths and limitations
- While having the preferred qualifications enhances your candidacy, having all of them is not mandatory. We encourage all interested applicants to apply, even those who may not meet every preferred requirement
Desirable
- Degree in Computer Science, or equivalent practical hands-on engineering experience
- Familiarity working with data-intensive workflows, pipelines, integrations, or metrics capture
- Exposure to modern cloud infrastructure, CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and observability tooling
- Prior experience navigating high-growth, experiment-heavy, or rapidly evolving product environments
What the job involves
- We are looking for a Software Engineer 2 to join Rula’s Patient Onboarding team. This team is focused on driving meaningful impact across the patient funnel
- Our goal isn’t to get patients through the door, but to get them through the right door: an experience that feels fast, trustworthy, and frictionless enough that they actually complete it and get the care they need
- In practice, that means building and evolving systems behind patient acquisition surfaces, registration flows, eligibility verification, and the end-to-end onboarding experience that converts someone who needs care into someone who’s getting it
- As a Software Engineer 2, you'll design and deliver reliable, high-quality product experiences that directly impact growth and patient outcomes
- You'll own features end-to-end, partnering closely with Product, Design, Analytics, and other engineers to run experiments, ship improvements, and iterate based on real data. Our work is experiment-heavy and we build systems for scale by optimizing for performance, correctness, and resilience as the business grows
Our take
More than half of adults in the US will be diagnosed with a mental illness during their lifetime, and yet inaccessibility of treatment remains a huge problem. That’s what Rula aims to solve, with its platform that matches users to therapists that are covered by their insurance.
The company, formerly known as Path, is partnered with a number of major health insurers, including United Healthcare and Anthem, making it an accessible service for millions of Americans. It allows users to browse therapists almost instantly, with just a short questionnaire to fill in before their matches are shown.
Though the market for tech-enabled mental health provision is rather overstuffed, with giants like BetterHelp as well as newer competitors, Rula's partnerships with insurers set it apart. The business has been steadily growing, and significantly bolstered its executive team in 2023. It also rebranded to emphasise its vision to improve not only access to mental health care, but also clinical outcomes.
