Hinge Health is the leader in Digital Physical Therapy, and we’re expanding into new areas of care. In April, we launched our comprehensive Migraine Care Program, which is already available to more than two million people through 125+ clients.
We’re now building a team from the ground up to launch our Gastrointestinal (GI) Care Program. GI conditions affect roughly one in four U.S. adults and drive $135 billion in annual medical spending, yet access to specialized care remains limited.
Our planned acquisition of Cylinder Health, a leader in virtual-first digestive healthcare, gives us a strong foundation for entering this market. Together, the teams will combine Cylinder’s clinical expertise and market presence with Hinge Health’s AI-powered care model and technology platform.
This is an opportunity for an engineering leader to build a new product from the ground up, shape the future of digital GI care, and define the experience millions of Americans could access through their healthcare plans in 2027.
As the Engineering Manager for GI, you’ll build an understanding for the 60M+ Americans afflicted by this health condition, ensuring that Hinge Health builds a comprehensive end-to-end experience to treat them, run rapid experiments to validate your assumptions, and launch a brand new digital care product for GI. What differentiates HingeHealth from other platforms is our fast pace of innovation blending licensed care providers with AI solutions and medical grade hardware to deliver a complete experience that improves the health of our users.
You’ll partner closely with senior leadership, Product, Design, and Marketing across our hubs in San Francisco, Montreal, and Bangalore to build a new GI product. As a hands-on engineering leader, you’ll stay close to the stack, regularly contributing to and reviewing code (~15% of your time) while building a high-performing team around you.
In your first 3 months, you will:
Build a team of 5 engineers building across our React Native (Phoenix) mobile codebase and backend services (Go & JS), establishing clear goals, rituals, and expectations for a high-performing team.
Define the new vertical/product line from scratch.
Build strong partnerships with Product, Design, and Marketing to align on the strategy, experimentation roadmap, and success metrics.
In your first 6 months, you will:
Build the “new vertical” product as a minimum loveable product (MLP) defining how to use display software, AI solutions and licensed care providers to deliver a significant health improvement for members.
Establish a rigorous portfolio of A/B experiments to run post launch of the new product planning for funnel optimizations to ensure success of members.
Establish engineering best practices for CI/CD, automated testing, monitoring, and client performance across the entire stack.
Have launched the “new vertical” product.
Execute a series of A/B experiments to increase usage and success of the new product
Grow and mentor your team, raising the bar on engineering quality, experimentation rigor, and operational excellence.
0->1 Builder: We are looking for engineering managers with a track record of building new products from scratch.
Talent magnet: someone who can quickly pull together a team to build the “new vertical” product.
You move fast, know how to balance innovation vs reuse, and deliver clear business results..
Hands-on engineering leader: You’re comfortable reading and writing code in modern stacks (e.g., React Native, BFF/full-stack web, GraphQL), and you use that fluency to coach, review, and set technical direction.
Experiment-driven operator: You think in terms of hypotheses, sample sizes, and decision rules, and you can run a dense A/B experimentation roadmap without sacrificing quality.
Systems and UX thinker: You see how architecture, API design, and client performance shape real-world member experiences—and you can align cross-functional partners around trade-offs.
Inclusive team builder: You create clear expectations, give direct feedback, and foster a culture where engineers can do the best work of their careers.
A minimum Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
A minimum of 3+ years of experience managing a team of ~5+ engineers in a fast-paced, product-focused environment.
AI-native development: Expertise using tools like Cursor, Claude Code, or similar AI agents as development resources to drastically improve the pace of experimentation, with opinions on prompting, agent review, and harness engineering.
Strong React Native, mobile, or client-side engineering background — or equivalent depth in a BFF/full-stack web context with a track record of shipping member-facing UI at scale.
Experience owning and evolving a major product surface end-to-end — from architecture and UX through experimentation and production reliability.
Demonstrated ability to design, run, and interpret A/B experiments, including comfort reasoning about sample sizes, interference effects, and decision rules.
React Native: Experience building or leading teams in large React Native codebases, including client performance, render optimization, and app architecture patterns.
Server-Driven UI: Familiarity with SDUI patterns and the trade-offs of moving layout and presentation logic from client to server.
Platform mindset: History operating a shared product surface that other teams extend—defining extension contracts, managing inbound requests, and protecting stability.
GraphQL & modern stacks: Familiarity with GraphQL (caching, BFF patterns, client-driven data-fetching performance), plus working knowledge of Python, TypeScript/Node.js, AWS services (e.g., Lambda, SQS, SNS, SageMaker), and modern DevOps practices.
Regulated environments: Experience working within healthcare (HIPAA) or other highly regulated domains involving sensitive member data.
We believe that remote work and in-person work have their own advantages and disadvantages, and we want to be able to leverage the best of both worlds. Employees in hybrid roles are required to be in the office 3 days per week, for the full 8 hours of a typical business day. The San Francisco office has a dog-friendly workplace program.
At Hinge Health, we’re using technology to scale and automate the delivery of healthcare, starting with musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions, which affect over 1.7 billion people worldwide. Our AI-powered, human-centered care model spans MSK, pelvic health, gastrointestinal (GI) and migraine care. With over 60 partnerships with health plans, PBMs and other ecosystem partners, Hinge Health is available to over 25 million people across more than 2,900 employers. The company is headquartered in San Francisco with additional offices in Montreal and Bangalore. Learn more at hingehealth.com.
Inclusive healthcare and benefits: On top of comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, we offer employees and their family members help with gender-affirming care, tools for family and fertility planning, and travel reimbursements if healthcare isn’t available where you live.
Planning for the future: Start saving for the future with our traditional or Roth 401k retirement plan options which include a 2% company match.
Modern life stipends: Manage your own learning and development.
Grow with us: Grow with us through discounted company stock through our ESPP with easy payroll deductions.

The job is in San Francisco, CA. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.
How San Francisco compares. Among the 145 largest places in California, San Francisco is #4 by population, #139 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #20 for remote work (#1 = most), #25 for college degrees (#1 = most). Its county, San Francisco County, is #3 of 58 counties for average pay ($174,103).
San Francisco has 830,235 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 2.1% of the population of California. It covers 47 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 17,784 people per square mile. The median age is 40.0, 6% older than the state median (40.0 against 37.9).
The median gross rent is $2,476 a month (rent plus utilities), 22% above the state median ($2,476 against $2,036). Over a year that is 21.1% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $1,394,500, which is 9.9 times the median household income ($140,970); a ratio above 5 usually means buying is out of reach without savings or a second income. 38.2% of households own their home, 32% below the state average (38.2% against 55.9%). A low ownership share points to a rental-heavy market with more apartments and shorter stays.
The San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA metropolitan area has 2,373,920 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $74,260 a year, 46% above the national median ($74,260 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are office and administrative support (226,320 jobs, median $62,120); management (223,100 jobs, median $176,340); business and financial operations (207,030 jobs, median $112,960). The area is most specialised in computer and mathematical (1.9 times) and life, physical, and social science (1.8 times), where the share of workers is well above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($176,340) and computer and mathematical ($167,770). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of San Francisco County was 4.0%. 69.6% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in San Francisco County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.
Among workers, 28.6% drive alone, 18.7% use public transit, 9.3% walk, 31.0% work from home. 21.6% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 11% above the state average (21.6% against 19.4%). Remote work is more common than in the state as a whole, which widens the set of employers a resident can work for without moving.
60.3% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 63% above the state share (60.3% against 37.1%). 34.0% of residents were born outside the United States, 26% above the state share (34.0% against 27.0%). The poverty rate is 11.2%, 7% below the state rate (11.2% against 12.0%).
The warmest month is Sep, averaging 59°F (14.9°C), and the coolest is Apr at 53°F (11.6°C). About 515 mm (20 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Dec is the wettest month (112 mm) and Jul the driest (2 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
Closest cities in this guide: Daly City (31 miles, rent 3% higher); Pacifica (31 miles, rent 25% higher); San Bruno (34 miles, rent 12% higher); Millbrae (36 miles, rent 32% higher). Rent differences are against San Francisco; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
