About Axo Ventures
Clinical software is where a provider's time goes to die. We are building Axo to make the software layer as invisible and ambient as possible, letting clinicians direct 100% of their attention to patients rather than screens.
Our first market is orthotics and prosthetics (O&P), the field designing braces and artificial limbs that restore human mobility and underserved by the tech sector. We're building a foundation designed to eventually scale across thousands of providers and multiple medical specialties.
The Role
You’ll join as a founding engineer working directly with the founder (Xoogler SWE) and co-founder (one of the US's best-known O&P clinicians), alongside a new engineer. You will own massive surfaces end-to-end, making the foundational architectural decisions for our entire platform. We have clinics using our suite and already saving hours a day, but we've got a massive pipeline ahead and need your help to build it. Additionally, we participate in humanitarian missions to expand prosthetic access in critical parts of the world like Ukraine.
The Stack
- Backend: C#/.NET, contract-first gRPC, PostgreSQL
- Frontend: SolidJS/TypeScript
- Methodology: Strict domain-driven design and rigorous testing
How We Work
We have total flexibility on your workflow. Whether you love AI-assisted speed coding or prefer to write by hand because your mental model is faster than prompting, we support it. We only care about delivering safely and quickly.
Requirements
- Senior-level depth with production systems.
- A strong habit of domain modeling.
- A philosophy that defaults to simplicity.
- Strong UI/UX experience with an obsession for user simplicity is a must.
