Tech Lead Manager

ABOUT FREED

Doctors are overworked, burnt out, and are quitting in masses.

At Freed, we combine clinician love with the latest AI tech and intense execution to create products that make clinicians happier.

Our first product is an AI scribe that automates medical documentation.

Since May of 2023, we have:

• Acquired 20,000 paying and loving clinicians

• Generated 70,000 patient notes daily and over 2 million monthly

• Made thousands of clinicians happier

With the backing of Sequoia Capital and other world-class VC’s, we are rapidly expanding our product offering. Patient-facing assistants, patient insights, EHR integrations, and other products are being built and used by thousands of clinicians every day.

We are looking for entrepreneurs. Fast, ambitious, and smart individuals who want to take care of the people who care for our health. Expect intense, clinician-focused, and interesting co-workers who want to win.

With an office in San Francisco, we embrace a hybrid schedule that brings out the best in teamwork and innovation. Our teams come together in person three days a week to collaborate, connect, and have a little fun along the way.

• Develop comprehensive end-to-end tests and design experiments to maintain the highest standards for our product.

• As we grow, play a key role in expanding the team, refining processes, and contributing to our engineering culture.

• Bring enthusiasm and dedication to empowering clinicians and transforming healthcare.

• Familiarity with HTML, CSS, HTTP, and VSCode / Cursor.

• A player-coach mindset, excited to lead while staying actively involved in technical work.

• Excellent communication skills, comfortable working in a fully remote environment (most of the team is on the West Coast, but hours are flexible).

• A product-focused approach, understanding how technical decisions impact user experience and business outcomes.

• Eagerness to learn and adapt, especially in applying AI technologies to our use case.

WHAT WE WILL BRING

• Competitive salary and equity in a high-growth company
