Beam Health | NJ/NYC & Remote | www.beam.health| Senior Software Engineer

At Beam, we're building Shopify for private medical practices to help them build a robust online storefront. We're VC-backed and looking to add an experienced engineer interested in growing out of an IC role.

A little about us: My last company recently sold for 450M. The CEO (me) built the product from the ground up, and now I'm looking for an individual to help me scale the engineering team (I've successfully hired engineers from HN before). We use Django/React, but if you don't have experience with it, I can get you up to speed.

What I'm really looking for are the intangibles: A strong work ethic, lack of ego/entitlement, and mission-driven individuals who want to build a customer-first product. If this sounds like you, drop me a line at sas@beamhealthgroup.com


Beam | Technical Lead | REMOTE (based in NY, NJ) | https://www.beam.health 70% (630M) of the 900M doctors' appointments in the US can be done virtually. Because of this, vertically integrated practices, such as American Well, Teladoc, & Ro have seen a lot of success, raising billions of dollars over the last five years. If you believe this adoption will increase over time, then you agree a billion-dollar marketplace will be formed around this capability. At Beam, we’re the first to build this marketplace, consolidating a distribution network of both brick & mortar and telemedicine clinics under one roof. We’re well funded and backed by some great investors, including the founders of Komodo Health. COVID-19 has accelerated our growth & we’re looking for strong product-minded engineers to help us scale.

If interested, you can email me directly at sas@beamhealthgroup.com. I’m the CEO/co-founder of the company.

Getting an error when I'm trying to send an email. Is that the correct address?


That's odd, I just tested and it seems to be working? Sorry about that


First off, really well written article. You're absolutely right in that it's a different market now than it was in 2013, when everybody with 'Full Stack' in their profile was getting hired.

Second, having hired a few bootcampers myself, I think it's definitely possible for someone to come in to a technical organization with limited experience. They just have to be willing to contribute as much as they can wherever they can.


Thanks sponnapa90! I completely agree. It's so important to have a go-getter attitude when joining an organization as an individual contributor. That goes for CS grads, too!


How can you tell during an interview if they have the willingness to contribute?


Hah. Probably just attitude. Some people exude the desire to remain detached from work. At least in my experience :p


I'm thinking more data-centric, though... curious if there are less subjective ways like best-practice questions to ask, etc.
