Software Engineer - Patient Onboarding; Remote

Overview

We believe that mental health is just as important as physical health. We recognize that mental health issues can be complex and multifaceted, and we are dedicated to treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.

We aim to create a world where mental health is no longer stigmatized or marginalized, but rather is embraced as an integral part of one's overall well-being.

We believe that by providing quality care that is both evidence-based and compassionate, we can empower individuals to take charge of their mental health and achieve their full potential. We are passionate about making a positive impact on the lives of those struggling with mental health issues and we strive to be a force for positive change in the field of mental healthcare.

About the Role

We’re hiring a Staff Software Engineer (L4) to serve as a frontend technical leader on Rula’s Patient Onboarding. In this role, you’ll own and evolve the architecture of some of Rula’s most visible and business-critical user journeys - our marketing site (), Storyblok-powered CMS, Entry Form, and Registration / Checkout flows - while helping the team untangle and modernize a complex onboarding funnel.

You’ll lead technical strategy and execution for large, multi-month initiatives, partnering closely with product managers, designers, backend engineers, analytics, and other stakeholders to design clean, future-proof frontend systems that scale with the business. This includes building reusable component systems and shared libraries, defining clear boundaries between frontend experience and backend workflows, and reducing accumulated tech debt that slows iteration today.

This role is a strong fit for someone who thrives in front-end-heavy problem spaces and wants to operate as a technical multiplier: mentoring other engineers, setting architectural direction, and raising the bar on performance, reliability, and experimentation. You’ll balance long-term platform thinking with pragmatic delivery, shipping iteratively while ensuring that Rula’s onboarding experience becomes faster, simpler, and more trustworthy for patients starting care.
