Mobile Engineer II (Android)

What we want to accomplish and why we need you

Suki is creating a new category in the health-tech space: the digital assistant. Our product will be the voice user interface for healthcare. What does that mean? Currently, doctors use electronic health record systems to take notes on patient encounters. This is a digital version of the paper charts that you may have seen in your doctor’s office or on TV. These systems can be hard to navigate and time-consuming to manage. Doctors would rather spend that time with patients. We are creating the solution. Doctors that use Suki already spend over 70% less time on administrative tasks, and we’re striving to do even better. Come and join us! 

We are a user-driven company and are committed to making sure every pixel of our product is in service of the doctor. We’re a team of technologists, clinicians, and industry experts working together to push the limits on technology used in medicine. We’re confident enough to move fast and talented enough not to break things. Check out this short video to learn more about our mission and our culture.

Our tech stack includes GCP, Kubernetes, Golang, Python, React, C++, TypeScript, JavaScript, Swift, Kotlin, gRPC, and GraphQL.

What will you do everyday?

You’ll create engaging product experiences on iOS/Android and services that delight and empower doctors with experiences that they could never imagine with their health IT systems.  You have an equal grasp of iOS and Android native development expertise in Swift/Objective-C/Kotlin/Java. You will work with the product, design and operations team to build the best product and support it. You will be DevOps friendly and you will write, test and deploy your own code.  While you know how to work hard, you also know how to have fun at work, make friends with your colleagues and contribute to our diverse and inclusive culture.  You will also contribute to making doctors’ lives better by reducing the administrative burden they face every day. You will be hungry to contribute and make a difference in the product quality.

Ok, you're sold, but what are we looking for in the perfect candidate?

• Expertise: you know how to code.  You understand our tech stack and can be productive with it. In other words, you’ve done this before.
• Action oriented: You love to build.  You know that perfect is the enemy of the good – you like to ship fast and quickly iterate.
• Creativity: You enjoy listening to user feedback and then building product in novel ways. You’re resourceful and enjoy finding alternate paths to success.
• Problem solving: you use data to help point you in the correct direction.  You optimize relentlessly.  You think business and engineering problems are like puzzles and you stick with them until they are solved.
• Humility: You’re humble and love working in a team without ego to deliver products
• Adaptability:  You thrive in a fast-moving organization that uses light-weight process and cutting-edge technology to have a huge impact.
• Confidence: You trust your abilities and you’re ready to push yourself to the next level.
