Mind Friend / Mindfriend

Mental health

Description

  • Set and enforce the launch readiness bar and decide when the platform is ready to go live.
  • Own the reliability of live video, audio, and chat sessions across real-world devices and network conditions.
  • Lead security and privacy controls for sensitive health data and oversee an independent security review before launch.
  • Own the end-to-end booking and payments flow, including error handling and failure paths.
  • Shape the post-launch product direction, including what to build next and in what order.
  • Lead and grow the engineering and product team, including a small internal team and freelance support.
  • Work hands-on in the codebase, run QA passes, and validate critical user flows directly.
  • Turn the current platform into a maintainable codebase with clear ownership and scalable delivery processes.
  • Establish a sustainable engineering and product cadence for the team to scale on.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of software development experience, with senior or lead engineering experience.
  • Proven product responsibility, not just execution of someone else's specifications.
  • Experience shipping a consumer product with real payments and sensitive personal data to production.
  • Background in a security- and data-sensitive environment such as health-tech, fintech, or similar.
  • Ability to run a security review and implement the required controls independently.
  • Hands-on leadership style with a willingness to work directly in the code and through operational issues.
  • Comfort working directly and candidly with a non-technical founder.
  • Early-stage or founding team experience is a bonus, not a requirement.
  • Marketplace or telehealth experience is a plus.
  • Experience with multi-jurisdiction products is a plus.
  • Experience taking a product through SOC 2, ISO 27001, or GDPR is a plus.

Benefits

  • Founding-team role with real authority and ownership.
  • Direct working relationship with the founder.
  • Opportunity to shape the company from launch onward.
  • Existing product and imminent launch, rather than a blank slate.
  • Competitive cash compensation.
  • Equity as part of the compensation package.
  • Mission-driven work focused on making trustworthy mental-health support easier to find.
