Engineering Manager; remote

Solace is a healthcare advocacy marketplace that connects patients and families to experts who help them understand and take charge of their personal health

As an Engineering Manager, you’ll be a hands‑on leader, expected to write code daily and build features from scratch while laying the foundation for a high‑performing engineering team. You’ll join a spectacularly talented team of engineers and take ownership of mission‑critical initiatives from initial design to deployment. In addition to your technical contributions, you will play a pivotal role in shaping our engineering culture, scaling the team, and mentoring future hires as we grow.

You are an experienced engineer who takes pride in your craft, thrives in a fast‑paced startup environment, and relishes the challenge of building something from the ground up. You have impeccable communication skills, a high degree of autonomy, and a natural ability to mentor and inspire others. Above all, you are a Master of your Craft, eager to push the boundaries of what’s possible.

Healthcare in the U.S. is fundamentally broken. The system is so complex that 88% of U.S. adults do not have the health literacy necessary to navigate it without help. Solace cuts through the red tape of healthcare by pairing patients with expert advocates and giving them the tools to make better decisions—and get better outcomes.

We're a Series B startup, founded in 2022 and backed by Inspired Capital, Craft Ventures, Torch Capital, Menlo Ventures, and Signalfire. Our fully remote U.S. team is lean, mission‑driven, and growing quickly.

We're here to redefine healthcare—and that demands urgency, precision, and heart. If you're looking to stretch yourself, sharpen your edge, and do the best work of your life alongside a team that cares deeply, you're in the right place. We’re intense, and we like it that way.
