ABOUT EVVY

At Evvy, we believe the female body shouldn’t be a medical mystery.

We are a precision women’s health company leveraging the vaginal microbiome to improve outcomes across a woman's lifespan. Backed by $60M+ from leading investors, we serve over 100,000 patients and 3,000 providers nationwide with our validated Vaginal Microbiome Test and AI-powered personalized care platform.

Through this work, we have built the world’s largest dataset on the vaginal microbiome — a proprietary foundation that will drive breakthroughs in infertility, preterm birth, gynecological cancers, and beyond.

Why join now?

Evvy is a generational opportunity in women's health — and we're at the inflection point.

- We’ve built a dataset no one has. Evvy has generated the world’s largest vaginal microbiome dataset from 100,000+ patients, uncovering novel biological markers underlying women’s health conditions that collectively cost the healthcare system $180B+ annually.

- Validated, AI-first platform. We’ve built a comprehensive testing and care platform that unlocks personalized treatment pathways for each patient. Our work is supported by research published in major peer-reviewed journals and presented at major clinical conferences (including ACOG, ASRM, IDSOG, and more).

- Proven traction, massive opportunity. We serve 100,000+ patients and 2,000 providers nationwide, with rapidly growing revenue and an expanding suite of diagnostics and treatments to improve outcomes across condition areas. We've only scratched the surface.

- Top tier team, investors, and partners. Our world-class team is backed by industry leading investors, including General Catalyst, Left Lane Capital, US Fertility, and Labcorp.

We're looking for high-horsepower, mission-driven people who find it unacceptable that the female body is still a medical mystery — and want to help change that.

THE ROLE

We’re looking for a Head of Engineering to help build the technical foundation for the future of women’s healthcare.

At Evvy, engineering sits at the center of everything we do — from diagnostics and patient experiences to AI-powered personalization, clinical operations, and data infrastructure. This role is about using modern engineering and AI-native development to dramatically increase the speed, leverage, and ambition of what a small team can accomplish.

As Head of Engineering, you’ll report directly to the CEO and lead Evvy’s technical vision, architecture, and execution as we scale. You’ll oversee the evolution of our platform across patient experiences, internal tooling, AI-powered workflows, clinical infrastructure, and data systems — helping ensure we move quickly without compromising quality, reliability, or trust.

We’re looking for someone deeply hands-on and intensely product-minded. You should be excited about working directly in the weeds with the team: reviewing architecture decisions, unblocking engineers, experimenting with new tooling, prototyping systems, and helping the organization adopt the newest AI-enabled development workflows. You should have strong instincts for how modern engineering organizations operate in an AI-native world — where lean, highly-leveraged teams can execute roadmaps that previously required significantly larger organizations.

Evvy is a primarily in-person team based in NYC. Given the cross-functional nature of this role, our ideal candidate is located in NYC.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Technical Vision & AI-Native Execution

- Translate Evvy’s company and product vision into a scalable technical roadmap across engineering, AI, and data infrastructure

- Define architecture and technical strategy that enables a lean team to move exceptionally quickly without sacrificing reliability or scalability

- Identify and deploy modern AI-enabled engineering workflows, tooling, and infrastructure that increase developer leverage and execution speed

- Stay deeply hands-on with architecture, implementation details, debugging, and technical problem-solving

- Establish best practices around architecture, code quality, security, scalability, and AI-assisted development workflows

- Partner closely with ML and research teams to bring AI-powered systems and algorithms into production

Engineering Leadership & Culture

- Lead, mentor, and grow Evvy’s engineering organization

- Build a culture of ownership, urgency, product thinking, and technical excellence

- Create an engineering organization that embraces modern tooling, rapid iteration, and continuous learning

- Balance short-term product velocity with thoughtful infrastructure investments and long-term maintainability

- Partner closely with the CEO on hiring, org design, and long-term technical strategy

Product & Cross-Functional Collaboration

- Collaborate closely with Product, Design, Clinical, Operations, CX, Marketing, and Growth teams to build systems that solve real user problems

- Ensure engineering decisions are grounded in user value, business impact, and operational scalability

- Help shape roadmap prioritization, technical tradeoffs, and execution planning across the company

- Serve as the voice of engineering across all levels of the organization

Security, Privacy & Infrastructure

- Own Evvy’s vision for platform security, privacy, and technical trust

- Manage internal systems access and compliance processes related to sensitive healthcare and patient data

- Evaluate new vendors, tools, and infrastructure through both technical and compliance lenses

- Help ensure Evvy remains best-in-class in data privacy and responsible healthcare infrastructure

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

You are:

- Deeply product-minded and obsessed with building systems that create real user value

- Intensely hands-on and excited to work directly alongside engineers in the weeds

- AI-native by default — constantly exploring how new technologies can accelerate development and increase leverage

- Energized by building lean, high-output engineering teams that can execute ambitious roadmaps quickly

- Comfortable operating in ambiguity and making thoughtful decisions with imperfect information

- A strong technical leader who can balance speed, quality, scalability, and pragmatism

- Passionate about building strong engineering cultures and mentoring high-performing teams

- An exceptional communicator across technical and non-technical stakeholders

You have:

- 10+ years of engineering experience, including 4+ years in engineering leadership roles

- Experience leading engineering organizations through high-growth startup stages (Series B and beyond)

- Experience building and scaling consumer-facing platforms, internal systems, or data-intensive products

- Strong architectural instincts across modern web infrastructure and AI-enabled systems

- Experience deploying modern AI tooling and workflows across software development processes

- Experience hiring, mentoring, and managing engineers while remaining highly technical yourself

- Familiarity with modern engineering stacks similar to Evvy’s (Python/Django, React, PostgreSQL, AWS, Snowflake, etc.)

Helpful but not required:

- Experience in healthtech or other regulated industries

- Experience productionizing ML/AI systems

- Experience with HIPAA, security certifications, or privacy-sensitive infrastructure

- Experience supporting diagnostics, ecommerce, or patient-facing healthcare platforms

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
