Senior Rails Engineer

About wawa

Today 17% of the world’s adult population need help to have a baby. By 2050 this need is projected to triple to ~50%. Only 2% of those in need can access fertility treatment today. We enable a future where 100% of those in need can access care. Our mission is to radically transform the success and accessibility of fertility care. We do this by empowering clinics, with a clear roadmap for driving change through a three-phase strategy, starting with our operating system.

Our platform digitises all workflows across fertility clinics, helping care teams to focus less on admin and more on caring for patients. Connected to it we have a patient app, guiding them through the often very difficult journey of fertility treatment. We are a small but experienced team, well funded by top European VC funds, and live with our product in over 8 countries. Today we have offices in Copenhagen and London and are expanding to New York in 2025.

Who you are

An experienced engineer that’s excited about The Rails Way

Desirable

• You like a high-tempo environment. We’re building things as quickly as we can learn. Our flavour of high-tempo isn’t cutting corners and delivering a series of janky MVPs: it’s individual responsibility, quick decision making, a willingness to make cheap mistakes and leap through two-way doors
• You can build a feature end-to-end. You’ll start with a discussion, a sketch, or a high-fidelity design - whatever the current task calls for
• You’re responsible for your work - defining timelines, keeping everyone on the same page about our progress/obstacles/etc
• You’re excited to go that extra mile on the design side, occasionally

What the job involves

• We’re in the business of building great tools. We believe great tools are fast, with accommodations for new users and power-users. We’re building those - and we’re building them fast!
• We are building an entire operating system, with everything from follicle scans to payments - and it is a unique chance to reinvent health care for a specific sector
• Some examples of interesting things we’ve built lately can be found here.
