Our mission is to uplift as many communities as possible. We do this through our app-based marketplace that connects healthcare professionals with the workplaces that need amazing workers. This enables hundreds of thousands of people to achieve financial stability for themselves and their families while providing essential care to millions of people across the U.S.
Founded in 2016, we are a remote-first team of over 1,000 people building a top Y-Combinator company and have been profitable since 2022. We’re the leader in Long-Term Care staffing and are rapidly expanding into Home Health, Hospitals, and more, meaning we have more work to do than people to do it, and are growing our team to support millions more people and their communities.
As a Software Engineer at Clipboard, you won’t just write code—you’ll craft solutions that reshape how healthcare professionals and facilities connect. You’ll collaborate closely with product managers, designers, and fellow engineers to build features that matter. If you love diving deep into technical challenges and emerging with high-impact solutions, this is your opportunity to make a real difference. Because we’re growing quickly, this is an evergreen role—we’re continually looking to add talented software engineers to our team. You can learn more about our engineering team on our candidate hub.

Understand the real-world problems faced by our facility clients, nurses, and internal users.
Occasionally engage directly with customers to gather feedback, confirm requirements, and ensure solutions truly solve their problems.

Communicate effectively in a globally distributed team—embrace asynchronous discussions, thorough documentation, and over-communication when needed.
Participate in daily overlap sessions or syncs, typically in the mornings (US PST), to stay aligned with your team.
Contribute to a Customer-Centric Approach
Whether fixing bugs, tackling tech debt (about 20% of our time), or brainstorming new features, always keep the user’s experience front and center.
Balance speedy fixes for pressing customer issues with longer-term structural improvements.

Own the systems you build: if something breaks, you’re part of the solution.
Typically on-call for one week out of the month, ensuring our platform remains reliable around the clock.

Strong understanding of service-specific integration testing, E2E testing, and selective unit tests.
Familiarity with AWS (ECS, Terraform) and best practices for deploying cloud-based applications.
Problem-Solving Chops
You thrive in “low-structure, high-ownership” environments, diving deep into complex issues and surfacing clear, elegant solutions.
Comfortable balancing immediate customer needs with robust long-term architecture planning.
Excellent Communication
Clear writing is essential for our remote culture—you know how to articulate ideas, provide concise PR feedback, and document decisions thoroughly.
Open to giving and receiving frequent feedback, even when it’s uncomfortable, to drive continuous improvement.
Customer Empathy
Driven by a desire to make real-world impacts. You love collaborating with PMs and occasionally customers, ensuring that features resonate with end-users’ needs.
Startup Experience: You’ve thrived in high-growth environments or founded your own venture, appreciating the speed and agility of startups.

Strong Product-Market Fit
With significant growth in booked shifts and revenue, you’ll build features that customers are already eager to use.
Customer-Focused Culture
We favor a “testing trophy” mindset, regularly reevaluate tech debt, and encourage open, written communication for collaborative problem-solving.
Estimated total annual compensation: $200,000-$400,000.
