Forward is on a bold mission to make high quality healthcare available to a billion people across the globe. We’re building the world’s most advanced healthcare platform from the ground up, combining hardware, software and doctors under one roof. We are building our IT team and looking for a world-class IT Engineer with expertise in improving and scaling IT systems and infrastructure. As an early member of our IT team, you’ll have a key role in building the future of healthcare from first principles.
Forward was founded in January 2016 by former executives and engineering leaders from Google and Uber.

- Own entire projects while working alongside cross-functional teams of physicians, designers, and operators.
- Lay the foundational groundwork for our engineering systems and practices.
- Collaborate with domain experts in a variety of fields, from AI and machine learning to massive distributed systems and sophisticated scheduling algorithms.

- Curiosity - Do you like to mess around with computer vision, hardware hacking, or bioinformatics in your free time? Have you made your own smart mirror? We have got some fun things for you…
- You have a BS or MS in computer science or a related field.
- You have a minimum of 2 years experience working in a related field.
