Job description
Since 2018, Wisp has been on a mission to put healthcare back in patients’ hands. We connect patients with hassle-free sexual + reproductive care online, with discreet and convenient treatment that saves them time, money, and stress. Our goal is to empower everyone to make the decisions about their health that are right for them. We’ve scaled quickly, serving patients across the nation and becoming part of the WELL Health family—and now we want you.
We are a growing, fully-remote team in the United States looking for collaborators who are committed to our mission, passionate about results, eager to build something amazing, and excited to have high levels of ownership, accountability, and personal growth.
Who We’re Looking For
We are looking for a Staff level Engineer, to continue our early stage Mobile app work, in building products that empower our patients.
This role will be primarily hands on keyboard, contributing to the codebase daily at least 90% of the time. The other 10% will be elevating the overall quality of work across the team because this is a team of 1 (you are the sole Mobile engineer).
This is a highly impactful, senior individual contributor role focused on mobile architecture, system design, and technical leadership.
You will own the mobile architecture vision for Wisp while working closely with product, design, backend engineering, and an outsourced mobile development team. Success in this role requires not only deep technical expertise, but also the ability to bring others along, coach engineers, and translate architectural vision into practical, scalable solutions.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys building modern consumer apps and shaping how teams build them.
What You’ll Do
Own mobile architecture across iOS and Android, ensuring scalability, maintainability, performance, and security
Define and evolve technical standards, patterns, and best practices for mobile development
Lead architectural decisions around state management, networking, data persistence, offline support, and release strategies
Act as a technical leader and multiplier, mentoring engineers and helping teammates understand the “why” behind decisions
Guide and partner with an outsourced mobile engineering team, providing direction, feedback, and technical oversight; small team of one to start with but ‘leading’ a team, onshore or offshore
Collaborate closely with product, design, and backend teams to bring consumer-facing features to life
Balance hands-on coding with architectural leadership—contributing to complex or high-impact areas of the codebase
Review code and designs with a focus on long-term quality, not just short-term delivery
Anticipate technical risks and proactively propose solutions as the product and team scale
What We’re Looking For
5+ years of software engineering experience, with significant mobile development experience
Proven experience designing and maintaining mobile architectures for consumer apps
Strong understanding of mobile platform fundamentals (iOS and/or Android), including performance, lifecycle, and platform constraints
Comfort working with modern mobile frameworks and languages, specifically:
Python
Swift / SwiftUI
Kotlin
React Native, Flutter, or other modern cross-platform frameworks
(Specific stack is flexible—strong architectural judgment matters more than exact tools but we do expect a basic level of working Python knowledge.)
Experience guiding or partnering with external or outsourced engineering teams
Demonstrated ability to coach, mentor, and influence engineers without formal authority
Strong communication skills—you can clearly explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences
Experience working on consumer-facing products, with an understanding of UX, reliability, and iteration speed
Comfortable operating with ambiguity and helping define direction in a growing company
Nice to Have
Experience scaling mobile apps with a growing user base
Background in healthcare, fintech, or other regulated environments
Experience defining mobile platform strategy across multiple teams
Familiarity with backend APIs, GraphQL/REST, and mobile security best practices
Visa sponsorship or transfer is not available for this position at present. Must be authorized to work in the country this requisition states.
Wisp is an equal-opportunity employer. We are proud to foster a workplace free from discrimination. We strongly believe that diversity of experience, perspectives, and background will lead to a better environment for our employees and a better product for our users and patients.
If you are committed to collaborative problem solving, creating high-quality and user-centric products, and want to make waves in sexual and reproductive healthcare, join us!
