About Prepared

911 is the backbone of American public safety…but, for too long, the professionals that dedicate their lives to answering our calls have been let down by the technology that serves them. Our mission is to change that. 

We aim to ensure that every emergency receives a perfect response; a bold vision requires bold action from our team, working hand-in-hand with the professionals we serve. 

Since the public launch of our first public safety product in the fall of 2021, our technology has helped streamline millions of 911 calls in communities around the country. We’ve revolutionized what’s possible in emergency response by applying cutting-edge AI to the most critical challenges facing first responders. Our partners span 49 states and collectively protect more than 90 million people.

Backed by more than $130 million in funding led from investors like General Catalyst, Andreessen Horowitz, and First Round Capital, we're scaling rapidly to become a core component of emergency calls nationwide, driving the future of emergency response toward a safer, more agile system.

At Prepared, you’re not simply part of a team — you’re a key force in a mission that truly matters. Your contributions here will shape the future of emergency services, playing a vital role in creating a safer, more connected world.

  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Product, Design, and other teams to align technical execution with business objectives. Translate complex technical concepts for non-technical stakeholders.

  • Technical Oversight: Guide the team through architectural decisions, balancing trade-offs between scalability, speed, and cost. Provide hands-on technical support as needed.

  • Technical Contributions: Actively participate in hands-on development, especially in backend systems, while guiding the team with technical expertise.

  • Code Reviews and Mentorship: Conduct thorough code reviews to maintain high-quality standards while mentoring team members in best practices.

  • System Design: Lead the design and architecture of scalable backend systems and APIs, ensuring alignment with business objectives.

  • Continuous Improvement: Identify and implement best practices, tools, and processes to drive technical excellence and team productivity.

What makes you a great fit:

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience, including 2+ years in a leadership or managerial role.

  • Excel at motivating teams, fostering growth, and building a sense of shared purpose as a people-centric leader.

  • Demonstrate a proven ability to manage engineering teams and deliver complex projects in high-growth environments.

  • Proven ability to balance leadership and technical contributions, excelling in roles requiring both hands-on coding and team management.
