We're seeking an entry-level Software Engineer to join our New Patient Experience team at Talkiatry.

You’ll be part of a highly collaborative, fast-moving group that values thoughtful design, user-centric features, and quality execution.

About Talkiatry:Talkiatry transforms psychiatry with accessible, human, and responsible care. We’re a national mental health practice co-founded by a patient and a triple-board-certified psychiatrist to solve the problems both groups face in accessing and providing the highest quality treatment. 60% of adults in the U.S. with a diagnosable mental illness go untreated every year because care is inaccessible, while 45% of clinicians are out of network with insurers because reimbursement rates are low, and paperwork is unduly burdensome. With innovative technology and a human-centered philosophy, we provide patients with the care they need—and allow psychiatrists to focus on why they got into medicine.

You will:

• Collaborate with product managers, designers, and fellow engineers to
• Develop and ship new patient-facing features from start to finish.

• Work across the stack, from crafting intuitive frontend interactions to designing performant backend services and APIs.
• Write unit and integration tests to ensure reliability and support safe releases.
• Participate in code reviews and provide constructive feedback to teammates.
• Help monitor, debug, and improve application performance and error handling in production.
• Engage in team rituals like sprint planning, retrospectives, and design reviews.
• Learn from and contribute to a supportive team culture focused on mentorship, continuous improvement, and patient impact.

You have:

• Familiarity with TypeScript or JavaScript, with exposure to modern web development frameworks such as React and Next.js.
• Understanding of software development fundamentals.
• Interest or experience in building fullstack applications, especially in a cloud based environment (AWS experience is a plus).
