Healthie, a fast-growing healthcare startup that builds business-critical software for wellness professionals, is hiring a full-stack developer. You'll work on our team of engineers building an awesome product at scale.

Our stack includes Rails, React, Typescript, and GraphQL. Some of the other technologies we use are Postgres, Redis, Sidekiq, RSpec, Capybara, and Gatsby.

Our test suite runs on a continuous integration service, and we deploy to a PAAS.

We have a friendly, educational code review process, where code is reviewed by both managers and peers. We use a kanban-ish workflow, where work begins life in a spec review process and then continues down the roadmap through implementation, review, QA, and deployment. The process allows for feedback and input from engineers every step of the way.

Our product team is always responsive to ideas and feedback from the engineering team. The two teams collaborate to produce a steady stream of well specified, reasonably scoped product changes that are a joy to implement and never result in redundant effort.

Our team is friendly, smart, and diverse. Outside of our 10am EST “standup,” working hours are flexible - work when you’re enjoying it and being productive, and have a life outside of work.

You: 6+ years of experience working on web applications

Bonus: Familiarity with tech in our stack Previous startup experience Experience in healthcare startups (or actual healthcare)

If everything above sounds good, we'd be excited to meet you!

Traveling Deliveryperson Problem


Even independent of the fact that the product line is absurd, this website is absurd. Although the intimacy between the characters is sort of positive, overall it's just ridiculous. they all have the same body, the black girl is the only asymmetrical one and has a music note in her hair? They all have bare arms and shoulders, only one is wearing pants and the skirts are shorter than I imagine any parent would want their daughter of target age to wear. Although I guess the characters themselves are young women so maybe that's not so bad... but even then, it's absurd that these characters have such strong sexuality.

HOWEVER: let's compare this to Barbie. It's better than Barbie in every single way.


The test suite will describe the desired behavior, regardless of all other dimensions.

The P=NP optimizer/generator will then generate an implementation that is optimal along one or more dimensions (like space or time efficiency).

Also-- regardless of that, It's "easier" in several senses to describe the desired behavior of an API than to implement that API.

Let's say we wanted to implement addition for a calculator. Here's a complete description:

-1 is the lowest number

-successor(N) is the successor to number N

That's a complete description of the natural number system, but it's not a useful addition function in any sense.

In the first place, that is not a complete description of natural numbers. Natural numbers have to be integers. So if you're going to tell a computer program that "1 is the lowest number", you'd first have to tell it what you mean by "number" and "lowest". Also, "successor(N) is the successor to number N"? That seems rather meaningless. What is "successor" in the first place? If your generator already knows what "successor" means, why do you have to describe it again? If the generator doesn't know what "successor" means, why are you using it in your description of a successor function?

That's a complete description of the natural number system, but it's not a useful addition function in any sense.

Even assuming your description was complete, why would a description of the set of natural numbers imply the creation of an addition function? Unless we're talking about a code generator that reads minds! :)
