At Vivian Health, we’re on a mission to transform hiring and recruiting in healthcare. We’re a high impact and positive impact business working to efficiently and cost effectively match the right talent to the right jobs in the healthcare sector, and as a result, help reduce healthcare costs and improve patient care.
We started by bringing transparency and increased access to the opaque and offline $17 billion temporary healthcare staffing industry, and we are now building the largest marketplace in the $1.5 trillion healthcare labor market that enables all healthcare professionals to find their perfect job opportunity, faster and easier than ever before. We empower healthcare professionals across the country by giving them unprecedented access to honest, transparent, and real-time information to aid them in their job search. We connect candidates to the highest paying, most relevant healthcare jobs in the country and we help enable research around the best places to work.
Our goal is to help healthcare professionals take the headache out of finding a great job, and for healthcare employers, making it easier and faster to find great talent. Through the Vivian Health platform, we enable staffing agencies and healthcare employers to more easily find relevant talent, communicate more efficiently, and make better hiring decisions, ultimately enabling them to serve patients more safely and effectively.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This is an opportunity to bridge the gap and be the go-between for the Design and Mobile Engineering teams at Vivian. You will be one of the first few people to join this team and help us build a culture of design thinking coupled with engineering excellence.
As an UX Engineer focused on React Native, you’ll be a core and early founding member of the Design Systems team at Vivian, joining designers and web-focused UX engineers. The team is off to a great start building out a reusable and extensible component library and we need help making sure all of that effort and planning translates to the mobile development team as well.
Our goal is to make the mobile app experiences on iOS and Android *the* primary experience through which healthcare professionals discover, research, and communicate about their next opportunity.
THE TEAM
Vivian is small and rapidly growing. Our Design team is tasked with not only ensuring an incredible user experience for both healthcare providers and staffing recruiters alike, but also with imagining and visualizing just how the future of healthcare staffing should be. We work very closely with the Product and Engineering teams to iteratively improve our current offering while also placing some big bets on what the future of our industry could hold.
