About VWell
We’re an early-stage wellness platform that intends to help people meet their goals and find the expert knowledge to assist them on their wellness journeys. We’re a small founding team, and you’ll build real product alongside us.
Who We’re Looking For
- Students: undergrad or grad students in CS, engineering, data science or a related field (internship, summer / semester / co-op)
- New grads: graduated within the last 12 months with a degree in a related field
- Early career: 1-3 years of professional software engineering experience looking to join a startup on the ground floor.
What You’ll Do
- Build and test features in our web applications and AWS backend
- Work on RAG workflows and a curated knowledge corpus
- Build extensive automated test suites and tooling that discover issues before users do
- Build content-pipeline and corpus tooling, and the automation around it
- Document your work so the team can build on it
What You’ll Get
- Production code, not busywork, from week one
- Direct mentorship from our CTO, a Fortune 100 engineering leader with 25+ years in enterprise engineering, cybersecurity, cloud and AI architecture
- Hands-on AWS and applied-AI experience (Lambda, Bedrock, DynamoDB, CDK), plus bare-metal inference and training
- A close look at startup technology strategy and process
- New grads and early career: a path to a full-time role based on your performance on a meaningful project, with potential future opportunities as we grow
You Might Be a Fit If You
- Know TypeScript or Python well and are comfortable with Git
- Are curious about LLMs and applied AI, and like asking “how could this fail?”
- Communicate clearly in writing, take ownership and finish what you start
- Have a project, repo or portfolio we can look at (class projects, hackathons, internships and personal builds all count)
Bonus Points
- AWS or other hyperscaler exposure (a personal project counts)
- React, Vite, API or serverless experience
- Interest in health tech or consumer products
- Care about security and privacy
