As experienced technologists, the work we do is important to our employers, but, at some point, we all ask ourselves the same question: Is the work itself important?
At Aidn, your superpowers will not go to waste.
Our ambition is to create the missing healthcare platform all Norwegians deserve—an integrated set of services that allows institutions, clinicians, social workers, and citizens to collaborate on healthcare matters as a single team.
It’s an audacious goal, not for the faint of heart. But if you are a dreamer, too, we think you’ll find there’s no better place to be.
That’s awesome, but we’re starting to have a problem.
Aidn still has the feel of a startup.
Our current products have been built from the ground up by small teams of talented designers and developers entrusted with the authority to make their own decisions. To achieve our long-term goals, it is critical that we carry this mindset with us no matter how large we become.
But, as we continue to expand the scope of our efforts, our backend engineers will be facing bigger and more complex challenges.
● How do we structure administrative pathways and clinical data to maximize our ability to share relevant information across the healthcare ecosystem?
● How do we incorporate the concept of consent into the very fabric of our systems?
● What communication and collaboration tools are needed in each of the many contexts where healthcare is delivered?
● How can we limit or eliminate the need for double entry during the transition from users’ existing solutions to our new platform?
● How do we design our systems for expansion into international markets?
They will not be able to tackle these complex problems alone.
That’s where you come in.
The best engineering managers are enablers. They function as architects, mediators, recruiters, communicators, administrators, and—every now and again—even engineers. At the heart of these varied activities, lie three simple goals:
● Help our product teams be as productive as possible;
● Help our engineers be as happy as possible; and
● Ensure we are always working toward our strategic objectives.
There are as many ways to achieve these goals as there are engineering managers. At Aidn, you will have the freedom to make your own choices concerning what is needed and how you prioritize your efforts. But overall, we would expect your responsibilities to fall into four major categories.
Engineering
● Advocate for total value by connecting the dots across product teams
● Provide architectural planning and oversight
● Work with developers to define and adhere to best practices
● Clear bottlenecks by performing code reviews, pairing with developers, debugging, triaging customer feedback, etc.
Management
● Take care of our humans and their career development
● Assist product managers with analysis, timelines, and assignments
● Assist CTO with strategic planning by sharing feedback and insight
Recruiting
● Define needs and work with the talent team to find candidates actively
● Define strategies for finding candidates passively (conferences, meetups, publishing content, etc)
Communication
● Ensure teams know how their efforts intersect with each other
● Promote alignment by recapping decisions and learnings
● Reduce stress by keeping things light
● Celebrate victories
If you have the skills, experience, and drive to juggle these varied responsibilities, we have a group of awesome engineers who would be delighted to make your acquaintance.
Plus, there is room for you to grow with us.
Our expectation is the number of engineering managers will grow horizontally as the company’s product offerings expand. The result will be a peer group of highly capable, multi-disciplinary managers across the various technical domains at Aidn.
Engineering managers will report directly to the CTO until that is no longer a feasible arrangement. When that time comes, our existing engineering managers will be natural candidates to fill new senior management roles.
Other things to get excited about:
● Work where it suits you, at home or one of our offices in Bergen, Bodø, or Oslo. Or maybe all of the above?
● 6 weeks vacation.
● Employee shares.
And—if all that weren’t enough—Aidn has a unique advantage.
Aidn is a member of the Kernel family, a collection of like-minded companies focused on building the next generation of health services for Norway and beyond.
This association gives us access to advisors across the entire healthcare ecosystem, enough capital to support the long runways our ambitions require, and the strategic partnerships needed to realize cooperation across today’s siloed landscape
