As a Product Engineer at Latent, you’ll build user-facing features that help pharmacy teams, clinicians, and care coordinators deliver better care.

    • Frontend: TypeScript, React, Node.js
    • Backend: Python, Postgres, Docker, AWS/Azure, Kafka/SQS (or similar)
  • Have strong product sense and iterate quickly with a bias toward actiong product intuition and a bias toward fast iteration and continuous learning
  • (Bonus) Have healthcare experience or passion for improving health outcomes

Compensation

The expected salary range for this role is $140,000 to $240,000 annually, in addition to equity and comprehensive benefits. Compensation packages are highly variable based on a variety of factors including experience and expertise. If your compensation expectations fall outside this range, we still encourage you to apply.

  • Tight-knit, world-class team with a deep sense of mission
  • Huge greenfield opportunity with significant ownership and room for growth

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
