About the role
Ro's standard text
Join Tech @ Ro to build the future of healthcare, from the ground up!
At Ro, we believe that when people achieve their health goals, they can achieve their life goals. The highest-leverage way to move society forward is to give people their health, and the current healthcare system isn’t built to do that. It was built to bill, not to serve patients.
We’re building a new system. One where the patient is in control. One designed from scratch for the digital age.
At Ro, technology isn’t just a function… It's core to how we deliver care. We’ve built a vertically integrated healthcare platform that connects telehealth, diagnostics, pharmacy, and logistics into a seamless, end-to-end experience for millions of patients.
…and we’re just getting started.
As part of Tech @ Ro, you’ll work on systems that operate at scale, with an opportunity to:
- Solve complex, high-concurrency problems across a full-stack platform
- Build and ship quickly with tight feedback loops and real-world impact
- Own systems end-to-end, from architecture to production performance
- Work alongside experienced operators, technical leaders, and clinicians
- Help define how modern healthcare should be delivered
We’re a performance-driven team with a strong sense of ownership and urgency. We move fast, learn quickly, and hold a high bar for what we build, and do so with a big heart — because patients depend on it.
If you’re motivated by impact, scale, and the chance to help lead the patient revolution, come build with us.
What You'll Do
- Drive the architecture, design, and implementation of new features across our patient and provider web experiences, which support millions of members and the providers who care for them
- Build realtime, visually engaging, intuitive interfaces that help patients seamlessly achieve their health goals and enable providers to deliver care efficiently and safely
- Operate as an owner within your team's domain, proactively assessing and improving application performance, accessibility, and reliability
- Drive engineering excellence through best practices in testing, monitoring, observability, and performance optimization
- Actively contribute to the team's architectural vision and technical roadmap
- Collaborate on code reviews and technical design documents to ensure consistent application of best practices across the frontend platform
- Collaborate closely with product managers, designers, and engineers from adjacent teams to influence the roadmap and ship cohesive, high-quality experiences
- Participate in on-call rotations to ensure the reliability of production systems
What You'll Bring to the Team
- Demonstrated experience building accessible, visually engaging web applications with an eye for intuitive user-facing experiences
- Proficiency with React and TypeScript, plus a strong grasp of UI architecture, and client-side performance
- Comfort working at scale in a Turborepo monorepo with a shared design system — TanStack Query, React Aria, and Playwright/Storybook-driven testing (strong fundamentals matter more than prior experience with our exact stack)
- Hands-on experience with metrics instrumentation and data-driven performance tuning, using qualitative user feedback and quantitative analytics to identify opportunities
- A strong sense of ownership for your work, from initial technical design and implementation through to monitoring for issues and opportunities after shipping
- Demonstrated ability to collaborate with engineers, product managers, and product designers to create the best possible products
- Genuine care for the user experience, and the ability to quickly assess the right solution to achieve product and design goals in an elegant manner
Bonus Skills
- Experience in telehealth or other highly regulated industries
