Engineering Manager, Discovery

The posting, as Hinge Health wrote it

ABOUT THE ROLE

Help members find the right care and take the next step in their healthcare journey. As the Engineering Manager for Discovery, you'll lead the team responsible for building intuitive, reliable care discovery experiences that connect members and care teams with the information and services they need, whether care happens virtually or in person.

The Discovery team delivers a search and discovery experience across member- and staff-facing applications as well as the shared data and search infrastructure that powers them. You'll lead engineering efforts spanning care search, relevance, and scheduling — making it easier for members to find appropriate care and for care teams to navigate complex information efficiently.

You'll partner closely with Product, Design, Data Science, and other engineering teams to improve discovery success, reduce friction from intent to action, and build scalable capabilities that support multiple applications. As a hands-on engineering leader, you'll stay close to the technology, contributing to architecture discussions, code reviews, and implementation when appropriate (~15% of your time), while developing a high-performing team.
