As the Engineering Manager for Discovery, you'll lead the team responsible for building intuitive, reliable care discovery experiences that connect members and care teams with the information and services they need, whether care happens virtually or in person.\nThe Discovery team delivers a search and discovery experience across member- and staff-facing applications as well as the shared data and search infrastructure that powers them. You'll lead engineering efforts spanning care search, relevance, and scheduling - making it easier for members to find appropriate care and for care teams to navigate complex information efficiently.\nYou'll partner closely with Product, Design, Data Science, and other engineering teams to improve discovery success, reduce friction from intent to action, and build scalable capabilities that support multiple applications. As a hands-on engineering leader, you'll stay close to the technology, contributing to architecture discussions, code reviews, and implementation when appropriate (~15% of your time), while developing a high-performing team.\nWhat You'll Accomplish:\nIn your first 6 months, you will:\nBuild strong relationships with your engineering team and cross-functional partners, establishing clear goals, ownership, and execution expectations.\n\nDevelop a deep understanding of existing discovery experiences, shared search infrastructure, data foundations, and scheduling workflows.\n\nDefine and execute a technical roadmap that balances user-facing improvements, shared platform capabilities, and operational reliability.\n\nLead delivery of meaningful improvements to care discovery and search experiences, improving relevance, usability, and conversion from discovery to next action.\n\nStrengthen shared search and data capabilities to improve accuracy, reliability, and reuse across member- and staff-facing applications.\n\nEstablish data-driven experimentation and engineering best practices around measurement, automated testing, observability, and performance.\n\nChampion AI-native development practices while growing and mentoring a high-performing engineering team that values technical excellence, ownership, and continuous improvement.\n\nWho You Are:\nProduct-minded engineering leader: You care deeply about building experiences that solve real user problems and translate complex information into simple, intuitive workflows.\n\nTechnically credible builder: You're comfortable reasoning about backend services, data models, APIs, and application architecture. You stay close to the code and use your technical judgment to guide decisions and coach engineers.\n\nSystems and platform thinker: You understand how to design reusable infrastructure and shared capabilities while balancing product velocity, scalability, and reliability.\n\nData-driven problem solver: You define success through measurable outcomes, use data and experimentation to guide decisions, and continuously improve the experiences your team builds.\n\nCollaborative team builder: You communicate clearly, navigate ambiguity, develop engineers through coaching and feedback, and create an environment where people can do their best work.\n\nBasic Qualifications:\nBachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.\n\n3+ years of experience managing a team of approximately 5 or more engineers in a product or platform engineering environment.\n\nStrong software engineering background, with experience designing and operating backend services, APIs, and data-intensive systems.\n\nExperience owning and evolving production systems end-to-end, including architecture, delivery, performance, and operational reliability.\n\nDemonstrated ability to partner with Product and cross-functional stakeholders to deliver measurable product or business outcomes.\n\nTrack record of building, mentoring, and developing high-performing engineering teams.\n\nPreferred Qualifications:\nSearch and discovery systems: Experience with search infrastructure, information retrieval, ranking, relevance optimization, or knowledge graphs.\n\nData and platform engineering: Experience building shared services and data platforms used by multiple applications or engineering teams.\n\nConsumer and enterprise experiences: Experience building member-facing or internal operational workflows, with a strong understanding of usability and performance.\n\nHealthcare integrations: Familiarity with healthcare navigation, provider and coverage data, scheduling systems, EMR integrations, or regulated health data.\n\nAI-native development: Experience using tools such as Cursor, Claude Code, or agent-based workflows to improve engineering productivity and quality.\n\nHinge Health Hybrid Model:\nWe believe that remote work and in-person work each have their own advantages, and we want to leverage the best of both worlds. Employees in hybrid roles are required to be in the office 3 days per week, for the full 8 hours of a typical business day. The San Francisco office has a dog-friendly workplace program.\nAbout Hinge Health\nAt Hinge Health, we're using technology to scale and automate the delivery of healthcare - starting with musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions, which affect over 1.7 billion people worldwide.
