Description
What you’ll be part of
Garner is on a mission to transform the U.S. healthcare system — and we’re the only proven player doing exactly that. We partner with employers to redesign how healthcare works: applying 550+ proprietary clinical metrics across 80+ specialties to a dataset of 320M+ patients to identify the best-performing doctors, then using compelling incentives to steer members to the care that helps them get healthier, faster.
The result is a rare “win win” — better care and lower costs for both members and employers. In just five years, our work has helped over 2.5 million people access higher-quality care and saved $1B in healthcare costs. We recently raised our Series E and have doubled five years running. If you've ever wanted your work to solve a problem that touches every person in this country, this is the opportunity to do exactly that. You'd be joining a team fundamentally reimagining healthcare in the U.S. — and using AI to scale that impact further and faster than anyone else can.

About this role
Garner Health is rebuilding how American healthcare works by identifying top-performing doctors and steering patients toward better care—work that's already improved outcomes for 2.5 million people and saved $1 billion in costs. As Manager of Engineering, you'd lead teams building the core product systems that make this possible, including data ingestion pipelines and product features enhanced by AI. You'd report to the Director of Engineering and work closely with product, data, and design teams in Garner's New York City office three days per week.
The role demands someone with at least six years of hands-on engineering experience who can translate business needs into scalable solutions, plus two years managing engineering teams with a demonstrated ability to hire, mentor, and retain strong talent. You should be comfortable with web application development, APIs, and cloud infrastructure (AWS), and you'll need to operate with real ownership and urgency in a startup environment. The tech stack includes Python, TypeScript, React, NodeJS, Kubernetes, and related tools—but equally important is your willingness to roll up your sleeves, identify bottlenecks, and do whatever's needed to move the mission forward.
This is a mission-driven environment that operates with intensity and high accountability. The compensation is $310,000 to $385,000, plus equity, flexible PTO, health benefits, and 401(k). It's deliberately demanding work for people motivated by what's at stake for real patients, not a fit for everyone—but if you want to apply your engineering leadership to a problem that touches every person in the country, it's a rare opportunity.
