Zocdoc Staff Software Engineer on Zocdoc's Marketplace Acquisition team, responsible for building scalable systems that power patient acquisition and engagement. Drives evolution of SEO infrastructure and integrates AI into engineering practices.
Responsibilities
As a Staff Software Engineer on the Marketplace Acquisition team at Zocdoc, you'll turn ideas into reality fast — prototyping, iterating, and shipping high-impact experiences that help patients discover and access care. You'll own the systems behind Zocdoc's patient acquisition and engagement, keeping everything at the top of the funnel stable, scalable, and fast. That means driving the evolution of our SEO infrastructure, which powers thousands of patient-facing pages; iterating on provider profile and practice page designs to create seamless, trustworthy experiences; and building the APIs and services that make patient-facing data fast and reliable at scale.
You'll also shape how we build. Zocdoc is making a company-wide push to drive engineering through the lens of AI, and you'll be an active participant in it — bringing AI into your day-to-day development, contributing to the standards, guardrails, and review practices the organization is building, and raising the ceiling on what a small team can ship. Multiplying the output of the engineers around you is as much a part of this role as the code you write yourself.
You'll work closely with Design, Product, and Marketing to align on strategy and deliver measurable impact, all while fostering a culture of technical excellence, mentorship, and innovation that keeps Zocdoc at the forefront of healthcare technology.
