Why this is worth applying to
Clinicians without software engineering experience should not apply. Clinician-engineers with strong SWE backgrounds and interest in digital mental health may find it worth considering.
Who should apply
Experienced software engineers with backend, frontend, or DevOps expertise and tech lead experience; clinician-engineers (e.g., physicians or nurses with computer science backgrounds) seeking digital health roles.
CV angle
For clinician-engineers, emphasize real software engineering leadership, code quality, mentoring, and cross-functional collaboration. Frame clinical domain knowledge as a plus for digital mental health products, but do not present clinical experience as engineering experience.
Skills to highlight
- Software Engineering Leadership
- Backend/Frontend/DevOps
- Code Review
- QA Practices
- Mentoring
- Cross-Functional Collaboration
- System Health Monitoring
- Agile Development
- Digital Mental Health Domain
