Vera is the fastest-growing clinical app for healthcare professionals in the world. Five people built it.
We’re already operating at a scale most teams never reach, with a team most people would think is too small to pull it off. That’s by design. Everyone here runs at a level that compresses what would normally take entire teams. We keep it that way by only hiring people who raise the standard the moment they join.
We’re building the founding team. The people who join now will define how this company operates for the next decade, and shape the future of healthcare.
We move at a pace that feels unreasonable to most, and completely natural to the right people. If that pace feels natural to you, you belong here.
We’re looking for former founders who’ve built something from nothing and want to do it again, alongside a high-output team already moving fast. You know what it means to wear every hat, operate with urgency, and push through ambiguity.
You won’t be slotted into a rigid function. You’ll work directly with the founders to identify the highest-leverage problems and own them end to end. This is close to the experience of building from zero, but with hundreds of thousands of users and traction already there.
Identify and own critical strategic initiatives across product, growth, partnerships, or operations
Move fast and make high-quality decisions, just like you did at your own company
Work directly with founders to shape Vera's trajectory as we scale from 5 to 50 people
Build and lead a team as your area of ownership grows
Bring founder-level intensity, creativity, and ownership to everything you touch
You've founded or co-founded a startup before (any stage, any outcome)
You have exceptional execution speed: you ship, you don't just strategize
You're comfortable with ambiguity and thrive in fast-changing environments
You have strong technical fluency (you don't need to be an engineer, but you need to speak the language)
You care deeply about healthcare, or building products that genuinely matter
Ship, then improve. We get things in front of users fast and let real feedback drive iteration. A feature in production teaches you more than a month of planning.
Own it completely. There's no handoff culture here. You take a problem and see it through, from first principles to production.
Always look out for the user. Every decision comes back to the clinician on the other end. If it doesn't make their day better, it doesn't ship.
Rocketship traction: 100%+ MoM growth, built by a team of 5
Real impact: Every feature you build helps clinicians make better decisions and save lives
Best time to join: We’ve just raised our Series A and are entering the most important phase of the company, where a small team defines everything that comes next
Location: San Francisco (strongly preferred). For exceptional candidates, remote or relocation support (O-1A / H-1B sponsorship) available.
Compensation: Competitive salary + meaningful early-stage equity. Details shared in process.
Employment: Full-time
