Growth - Staff Software Engineer

About Sprinter Health

At Sprinter Health, our mission is reimagining how people access care by bringing it directly to their homes. Nearly 30% of patients in the U.S. skip preventive or chronic care simply because they can’t get to a doctor’s office. For many, the ER becomes their first touchpoint with the healthcare system—driving over $300B in avoidable costs every year.

By using the same technologies that power leading marketplace and last‑mile platforms, we deliver care where people are, especially those who need it most. So far, we’ve supported more than 2 million patients across 22 states, completed 130,000+ in‑home visits, and maintained a 92 NPS. Our team of clinicians, technologists, and operators have raised over $125M to date, with investors like a16z, General Catalyst, GV, and Accel, and enjoy multi‑year runway.

About the Role

Sprinter Health delivers free, in‑home care to some of the most underserved communities in the country. The Growth Engineering team is responsible for getting patients to actually use that care—by reaching them, educating them, and making it easy to book. Today, most appointments are booked through outbound phone outreach. Your mandate is to help us evolve that into a true product‑led motion by bringing booking directly into the core product and scaling how we engage patients.

This is a role where the impact is tangible—you’re building the systems that determine whether someone gets care or goes without.

Office Location

We are a hybrid company based in the Bay Area with offices in both San Francisco & Menlo Park. We care about work‑life balance, and understand that there will be times where flexibility is needed.

What you will do

• Mentor a team of three growth engineers and partner with our Staff Growth PM to build out the function end‑to‑end.
• Design and ship experiments that drive patient bookings—from message copy tests and outreach timing to new in‑product booking flows.
• Optimize multi‑channel engagement across SMS, phone, email, and mail to reach patients who typically don’t schedule care.
• Run rapid brainstorms and sizing exercises to prioritize the next set of growth bets.
• Define and monitor funnel metrics to understand drop‑off, activation, and conversion.
• Share insights through clear reporting and experiment reviews with cross‑functional partners.
• Test unconventional tactics (like door‑knocking pilots) and simulate outreach volume to match clinical supply and demand.

What have you done

• Spent 7+ years as a software engineer, including 4‑5 years on a growth or experimentation‑focused team.
• Mentored earlier career engineers and have held pod‑level ownership on projects.
• Built and iterated on backend systems that power experimentation, messaging, funnels, or activation flows.
• Shipped and measured experiments that moved core metrics like activation, conversion, retention, or booking.
• Used data to identify drop‑offs, size opportunities, and prioritize what to build next.
• Collaborated with product, design, data, or ops to turn insights into shipped features.
• Balanced speed and impact in a startup or high‑growth environment.

What gives you an edge

• You’ve shipped experiments that directly moved activation, conversion, or booking metrics.
• You’re comfortable owning the full loop—sizing, building, launching, and measuring.
• You’ve worked on products where growth is driven through the product, not just outbound channels.
• You move fast with data, scrappy tooling, and lightweight experiments.
• You’ve operated in high‑ambiguity, zero‑to‑one, or PLG environments where playbooks didn’t exist.
• You’ve mentored mid‑level engineers.
• You’ve broken down projects into features and tasks and distributed them effectively.
• You’ve been a people manager!
