🐦 About Birdie At Birdie, we’re reimagining care for older adults. We’re building the technology that powers the future of home healthcare, empowering care teams with tools to deliver better, more dignified care, and enabling older people to thrive in their own homes for longer. Our all-in-one solution powers millions of care visits every month, equipping care providers with the tools they need to deliver exceptional, efficient care. We’re not here to tinker at the edges. We’re here to radically transform a broken system.

We've grown beyond what our first version can support, and we're rebuilding it as Rostering V2: the operational backbone we want our partners to depend on for the next ten years. As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, your mission is to own and ship Rostering V2 features end-to-end.
