About Us

Adam Health is redefining men’s health, longevity and wellness tackling the problem that 1 in 5 men die prematurely from preventable conditions.  We do this with innovative, user-centered solutions that empower men to take proactive control of their health. This includes IP protected wearable technology, a partner app, a supplement and more coming. With early traction, a successful seed round, and a bold mission to lead an industry shift, we’re on track to becoming a defining player in the men’s health and wellness space.

Position Summary

We are hiring our second in-house Software Engineer moving away from having used an app agency.  This is a mid-level hands-on technical role. 

The successful candidate will be responsible to help develop and maintain our native app, and a backend system for analysing and processing results. You will be supported by a lead engineer but we want to give someone the opportunity to grow and take responsibility. 

This is not managing legacy fixed infrastructure.  This is a chance to help choose and shape the engineering set up as the company grows with high value proprietary data, AI and cutting edge technologies. 

Why Join Us Now?

As the second in-house engineering hire, you will be joining at a pivotal moment just as we close our second funding round. This is an opportunity for the right person that's looking for a hands on role with scope to grow. You will have the unique opportunity to shape our technical foundations and establish best practices before the base code becomes more complex.

Desirable
