Overview
Tandem is a generational opportunity to rethink how we bring new therapies to market, and our path to doing so is significantly de-risked - we have:Exponential organic growth:
We have product-market fit and are growing rapidly through word-of-mouth. Tandem supports thousands of patients every week and is doubling physician user count every month. We will reach millions by 2025.An AI-first business model:
Our approach is distinctly enabled by AI, but our business will get stronger (not commoditized) as foundation models improve. We are building durability through two-sided network effects that will compound over time.Top tier investors:
With the traction to support conviction in our model, we raised significant funding from investors (including Thrive Capital, General Catalyst, and Bain Capital Ventures) to build an exceptional team of engineers and operators.Our number one problem is scaling to meet demand . We are looking for individuals who are high horsepower, high throughput, and hyper resourceful to help us increase capacity and grow. We move fast and need to move faster.
About the role
What we're doing is super complex, both in terms of business context and the tech required. It requires understanding the intricacies of health insurance rules, archaic healthcare systems, and what makes experiences effective for patients, providers, and pharmacies.

and
lead the development of a brand and online presence that communicates what we do.

If you join, you will:
Become an expert in the world of medicine, ranging from how health insurance claims work to how pharmaceutical companies launch new drugsLead user research to ensure we deeply understand our users' needs and pain pointsCollaborate with the rest of our team and CEO to define our product roadmap as we balance supporting patients with building a long-term profitable businessOwn the development and maintenance of our brand, including both visuals and messagingScope and spearhead design projects - this means establishing design systems, building out both low- and high-fidelity designs, prototyping, and supporting launches, for:Consumer- and provider-facing applications (external) and user support experiencesTools for our team and outsourced staff (internal) , including integration of AI featuresPublic website and landing pages for consumers, providers, and enterprise partnersBranding and marketing initiatives, including both digital and print materials (and merch!)
We'll be most excited if you:Have experience working full-time as a software product designerHave experience designing 1) data-rich UX with complex interactions and 2) interactive web experiencesKnow how to operate independently when dealing with ambiguous problemsAre pragmatic and can see the bigger pictureAre high output and bias towards actionThis is a list of ideal qualifications for this position. If you don't meet every single one of them, you should still consider applying!
