About the job
About Maple:
Maple is a workforce management suite (scheduling, time & attendance, and payroll, with more to come), purpose-built for long-term care and designed for a modern, flexible workforce. We are building this product to help nursing homes transform their labor operations and streamline costs. We also aim to help healthcare workers access new opportunities and build financial health.
We started building the product in early 2023, launched to our first customers in May, and have seen rapid growth since then. We were previously incubated within Clipboard Health (think of a startup within a startup), but spun out as a sibling company in 2024.
Our product thesis outlines our long-term vision. We encourage you to challenge and build conviction in our thinking.
About the role:
We are growing our Engineering team!
Our engineers have high autonomy and initiative. We expect engineers to talk to customers, and directly weigh in on product and design decisions.
Currently, our Engineering team is tackling projects including building entirely new workforce management modules (e.g. benefits administration, hiring / applicant tracking), launching powerful new features within our existing modules, and deepening our API integration offering with staffing providers.
We work with a modern tech stack designed for efficiency and scalability. Our frontend is built with React on Next.js, while our backend leverages the power of NestJs. Both the frontend and backend are developed using TypeScript. We use PostgreSQL as our database, which we interact with through Prisma. This setup allows us to build robust, high-performance applications that meet the complex needs of our users.
This role requires an overlap of 5 hours with the PST (UTC-8) timezone. We are also looking for candidates with a minimum of 2 years' work experience.
Relative to other companies, some unique responsibilities include:
- Within ~6 months, engineers are expected to be comfortable leading the development of large features that other engineers contribute to. This includes defining the feature’s technical design and coordinating feature launches with our account managers.
- Our goal is to build a deeply customer-centric company with rapid feedback loops. In service of this, the Engineering team has a customer support rotation. Every ~5 weeks, an engineer will spend a week directly handling support questions from customers + shipping fixes / improvements.
- Code is the main avenue for making an impact, but it isn’t the only one. Engineers also weigh in on broader strategy, train the Sales team on product understanding, and jump in on account management calls.
Why you should apply:
- We have the opportunity to meaningfully help both healthcare facilities that serve our elderly, and frontline workers who provide care.
- You get to work with a small, talent-dense team (~10 engineers, ~20 people total), and we get to work with you! We push each other to be excellent, and we value kindness.
- Competitive pay and benefits, including unlimited PTO (this is a high-trust team)
Our application process:
The interview process is designed to simulate the type of work that engineers typically perform on a daily basis. We do not ask deceptive questions, delve into obscure topics, or present academic conundrums. You do not need to dust off your algorithm textbook or grind Leetcode problems to pass our interviews. We are hiring full-stack engineers, but we know you may have specific strengths. Wherever your expertise lies, we’ll tailor your interview questions to match your strengths.
The interview process consists of the following steps:
- An asynchronous assessment through Woven
- Please note that Woven may show “Clipboard Health” branding. We currently share the same account, so this is expected
- Three technical case interviews (each on a different set of skills)
- Engineering lead interview
- CEO interview
Each interview is ~45 minutes long. You will receive information about the interview formats and what to expect beforehand, including preparation tips and sample problems.
