Home is the first thing members see when they open the Hinge Health app. The Home Pod is responsible for making sure every member quickly finds the care they came for, and as a result, we sit on a critical business path for Hinge Health. In this role, you’ll own and evolve the core Home experience on our React Native app, using experimentation to deliver a delightful experience that reliably guides members into the right sessions and programs.
You’ll join a strong pod as the senior-most engineer, partnering closely with product, design, data, and backend teams to define the technical direction, raise the quality bar, and mentor others while shipping impactful improvements to one of our most visible product surfaces.
Below are example impact areas over your first 3, 6, and 12 months. At Hinge Health, we regularly adjust priorities to respond to member needs and business incentives, so these are illustrative rather than fixed checklists.
In your first 3 months:
Build a deep understanding of the Home domain, member journeys, and how Home connects to core care experiences (sessions, programs, content).
Partner with product, design, and data to map the current Home funnel, identify key drop-offs, and prioritize experiments.
Ship meaningful improvements to our existing React Native Home experience, focusing on performance, reliability, and polish.
In your first 6 months:
Mentor and pair with engineers on the pod, helping them grow in mobile best practices, code quality, and experimentation mindset.
Continue to improve our new server-driven UI architecture for Home, collaborating with backend and platform teams to refine APIs, configuration models, and guardrails.
Deepen and participate in our existing experimentation and measurement framework for Home (e.g., A/B tests, feature flags, event instrumentation) to iterate on layouts, recommendations, and CTAs.
In your first year:
Own the long-term technical roadmap for the Home pod’s client architecture, balancing flexibility (through server configuration) with a responsive, native-quality member experience.
Drive cross-team initiatives to improve the end-to-end journey from Home through sessions and care plans, ensuring the surface reliably delivers business outcomes (session bookings, program engagement, retention).
Raise engineering standards on the pod (testing, observability, reliability, accessibility, performance) and help scale the team’s impact as the product and membership grow.
Participate in the team’s weekly on-call rotation, helping ensure the reliability and timely support of the systems we build.
Mobile product craftsperson: You care deeply about core flows and how they feel in a member’s hand, from loading behavior and animations to edge cases and error states.
Experimentation-oriented: You’re comfortable defining hypotheses, designing experiments, instrumenting funnels, and iterating based on data and qualitative feedback.
Server-driven UI experience: You’ve designed or worked with server-configured experiences and know how to keep them fast, reliable, and intuitive for both members and internal stakeholders.
Team mentor and collaborator: You enjoy leveling up a strong but more junior team through pairing, code reviews, design discussions, and clear written communication.
Owner mindset: You think in terms of systems and business impact, not just tickets—you’re comfortable taking a problem from idea through launch, measurement, and iteration.
4+ years of practical software engineering experience, including building and shipping user-facing applications in production.
Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field (or foreign equivalent).
2+ years of hands-on React Native experience building mobile applications at scale.
Experience designing and implementing server-driven UI or configuration-driven presentation layers on mobile or other client platforms.
Track record of running experiments (e.g., A/B tests or multivariate tests) on core product surfaces and using results to drive roadmap decisions.
Strong proficiency with TypeScript/JavaScript, React Native, and modern mobile development tooling; familiarity with backend services (e.g., Node/TypeScript, GraphQL, or similar) is a plus.
Experience working on high-traffic, critical-path surfaces (e.g., home screens, discovery/navigation surfaces, or key funnels).
Demonstrated ability to mentor and grow other engineers through code reviews, design collaboration, and technical guidance.
Comfort collaborating with product, design, and data/analytics partners to define metrics, interpret results, and refine experiences.
Experience in healthcare, consumer apps, or other regulated or data-sensitive environments is a plus.
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.

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.
