About EllieMD

EllieMD is on a mission to revolutionize healthcare by empowering individuals with pharmaceutical-grade products and a network of dedicated brand partners. We believe healthcare should be accessible, transparent, and built on trust. Inspired by the wisdom, strength, and nurturing nature of elephants, our name reflects our commitment to care, integrity, and empowerment—ensuring that our customers, partners, and community feel supported, valued, and protected.

As a member of our team, you’ll help bring this mission to life by upholding our values of accountability, collaboration, and excellence. We’re looking for individuals who take pride in delivering high-quality experiences and who thrive in a fast-moving, innovative environment.

Position Overview

EllieMD is seeking a Full Stack Engineer to join our fast-growing engineering team in New York City. In this role, you will work across our monolithic Next.js + Node.js platform to enhance and maintain our:

  • E-commerce subscription engine
  • Customer, Partner, and Admin portals
  • Internal tools and scripting workflows
  • API backend (Express/TypeScript)
  • Medical provider integrations
  • Website and marketing systems

You will collaborate closely with our VP of Engineering, Product Manager, and UX/UI Designer to deliver high-quality, scalable features that power EllieMD’s digital experience. As we continue to scale, you’ll play a key role in strengthening our engineering foundation and preparing the platform for future microservice and cloud migrations.

This is a great opportunity for a mid-level engineer who thrives in a fast-paced startup environment and is excited to build consumer-facing healthtech products at scale.

What You’ll Do

  • Develop, enhance, and maintain our full-stack platform built on Next.js, React, TypeScript, Node.js, and Express.
  • Build scalable APIs, backend services, and modular frontend components.
  • Integrate third-party services including payments, authentication, analytics, notifications, and more.
  • Write automated tests (Jest), help improve code quality, and follow best-in-class engineering practices.
  • Participate in code reviews and support continuous improvement across the engineering team.
  • Work closely with Product & Design to translate requirements into polished, user-friendly features.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure system reliability, performance, and scalability.
  • Support light DevOps work, including deployments, logging, monitoring, and CI enhancements.
  • Contribute to the evolution of the platform toward more distributed, cloud-native systems (experience with AWS, microservices, or containerization is a bonus).

Required Qualifications

  • 3+ years of professional full-stack engineering experience.
  • Strong experience with Next.js, React, Node.js, Express, and TypeScript.
  • Experience building customer-facing platforms, dashboards, or interactive web applications.
  • Experience with MongoDB or similar document databases.
  • Familiarity with version control (Git), testing (Jest), and modern frontend styling systems (Tailwind or CSS frameworks).
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced startup environment, collaborate cross-functionally, and ship features quickly with high quality.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills; ability to clearly articulate technical decisions.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience in HIPAA-compliant or regulated healthcare environments.
  • Experience with e-commerce, subscription systems, payments, or checkout flows.
  • Experience with any of the following:
  • Distributed systems or microservices architecture
  • AWS services (Lambda, ECS, S3, CloudWatch, etc.)
  • Infrastructure tooling (Docker, containers, cloud hosting)
  • CI/CD pipelines
  • Observability & analytics: Sentry, PostHog
  • Background job systems (Agenda, cron-based workers)
  • Heroku or Netlify deployment environments
  • PNPM monorepos and code quality tooling (ESLint, Prettier)

While these are not required, they reflect the technical direction of the company and are valuable as EllieMD scales.

Who You Are

  • A builder who takes pride in writing clean, maintainable, high-quality code.
  • Someone who thrives in environments where autonomy, ownership, and rapid iteration are the norm.
  • Passionate about improving the healthcare experience and designing technology that supports customers and partners.
  • A team player who values collaboration and enjoys learning from others.
  • Aligned with EllieMD’s core values: Accountability, Collaboration, Excellence, Integrity, and Care.

Compensation & Structure

  • Contract Role: Starting as a 1099 contractor.
  • Future Conversion: Planned transition to full-time W2 in 2026.
  • Compensation: $125,000–$150,000 (commensurate with experience).
  • Benefits: Planned upon full-time conversion.
