Hello there, I'm Michael and I recently joined MedMe as the Director of Engineering! I am no stranger to scaling healthcare technology companies and I am thrilled about leading and growing our dynamic, impact-driven team. As an engineer at heart, I thrive on building modern cloud based applications that help make healthcare better for everyone. We're looking for a DevOps Engineer to join our growing team, where you will have the opportunity to expand our engineering capabilities and platform on AWS. Our vision and product at MedMe has already disrupted the legacy platforms in pharmacy care delivery and we would love you to join us in further excelling our impact within our healthcare system.
Co-founders Nick, Rui, and Purya built MedMe together after identifying the biggest problem to be existing pharmacy software built 20 years ago with the primary purpose to sell drugs. Purya was a health data scientist for the government, Nick was a product engineer for the Tesla Roadster, and Rui is a Pharmacist. Our team is equally passionate about using pharmacists to provide more services for patients in the community.
We are building software for an industry that has relied on paper and pen for a long time. This is why crafting, building, and constantly improving the end-to-end customer experience is an essential part of our company. It's crucial that we listen deeply to the diverse needs of our pharmacies - located anywhere from dense urban jungles to northern remote communities - to design and build for their needs to ultimately provide more proactive and sustainable care for the patients in their communities.
Our mission & vision
With having just raised $3.7M USD, our mission is to build an all-in-one cloud-based platform that empowers pharmacists to schedule, document, and manage clinical services at scale. Our clients include the two largest pharmacy chains in Canada, servicing 3500+ pharmacies across 10 provinces and touching millions of patients. Our ultimate vision is to transform pharmacies from today's dispensing locations to tomorrow's health hubs. ?

- Build templates of systems for engineers to leverage in our product and platform.
- We don't 'throw things over the wall'; our engineers are comfortable with CDK and ownership, but some objectives span more than just one team!
