Full Job Description
ABOUT CLIPBOARD Our mission is to uplift as many communities as possible. We do this through our app-based marketplace that connects healthcare professionals with the workplaces that need amazing workers. This enables hundreds of thousands of people to achieve financial stability for themselves and their families while providing essential care to millions of people across the U.S. Founded in 2016, we are a remote-first team of over 1,000 people building a top Y-Combinator company https://www.ycombinator.com/topcompanies/ and have been profitable since 2022. We’re the leader in Long-Term Care staffing and are rapidly expanding into Home Health, Hospitals, and more, meaning we have more work to do than people to do it, and are growing our team to support millions more people and their communities. Engineering at Clipboard is deeply embedded in the business. Our exceptional engineers own the full software development lifecycle, from design and implementation through deployment and ongoing support. Engineers at Clipboard have real autonomy over their work and are expected to take full ownership of what they build. They work closely with product and operations, and interact directly with customers, solving complex marketplace and operational problems that impact thousands of healthcare workers and facilities every day. Because of this, our Engineering Managers are expected to help maintain a high technical and execution bar across the team. A big part of the role is understanding how engineers think, helping challenge ideas when needed, and creating an environment where the team can consistently raise the bar on the work they deliver. More about the Role We’re looking for an Engineering Manager to join our Platform team - the team that builds our self-serve developer platform (infrastructure, tools, processes, and education) that lets every engineer at Clipboard design, build, test, deploy, and secure software unreasonably fast and with uncomfortably high standards - inc
