Sample interview questionsHow do you balance writing production code with managing and mentoring a team of engineers?I reserve focused time for high-leverage technical work while establishing predictable one-on-ones, code-review practices, and team planning rituals. I prioritize work where my hands-on contribution reduces risk or accelerates a major initiative, and I delegate ownership with clear outcomes so engineers can grow.

Describe how you would approach architecting a new consumer-facing feature spanning React, APIs, and the database.

I would first clarify user outcomes, edge cases, success metrics, and operational constraints with product and design. Then I would create a lightweight technical design covering data models, API contracts, UI states, authorization, testing, observability, rollout, and rollback plans before breaking the work into independently deliverable slices.

What practices would you introduce to maintain code quality in a fast-moving continuous-deployment environment?

I would use clear ownership, small pull requests, automated tests at appropriate layers, reliable CI checks, structured code reviews, feature flags, monitoring, and documented engineering standards. The goal is to make the safe path the fastest path rather than relying on manual heroics before releases.

How do you handle ambiguity when product requirements are not yet well-defined?

I turn ambiguity into explicit decisions by identifying assumptions, risks, unknowns, and the smallest experiments that can validate them. I communicate tradeoffs early, align stakeholders on a practical first iteration, and keep the architecture flexible enough to incorporate what we learn.

How would you support an engineer who is repeatedly blocked on a complex technical problem?

I would first understand whether the blocker is technical, contextual, process-related, or confidence-related. I would help scope the problem, pair on the hardest portion where useful, connect them with the right collaborators, and agree on a concrete next step while ensuring they retain ownership and learn from the process.

## About this role.

### About Solace

Healthcare in the U.S. is fundamentally broken. The system is so complex that 88% of U.S. adults do not have the health literacy necessary to navigate it without help. Solace cuts through the red tape of healthcare by pairing patients with expert advocates and giving them the tools to make better decisions—and get better outcomes.

We’re a Series C startup, founded in 2022 and backed by Inspired Capital, Craft Ventures, Torch Capital, Menlo Ventures, Signalfire, and IVP. Our U.S. based team is lean, mission-driven, and growing quickly.

Solace isn’t a place to coast. We’re here to redefine healthcare—and that demands urgency, precision, and heart. If you’re looking to stretch yourself, sharpen your edge, and do the best work of your life alongside a team that cares deeply, you’re in the right place. We’re intense, and we like it that way.

### About the Role

As a Technical Lead, you’ll join a spectacularly talented team of engineers and you’ll help shape them into an even stronger force. You’ll split your time between writing production code yourself and elevating the engineers around you through mentorship, technical guidance, and direct management. You will be expected to move aggressively, commit code regularly, and see your work in the wild with live users—while simultaneously unblocking your team, reviewing their code, and helping them grow.

You are a seasoned engineer who can identify problems, architect the highest-quality solutions, and teach others to do the same. You are curious and enjoy working on ambiguous problems where the solutions are not (yet) well-defined. You take pride in your craft, have impeccable communication skills, and you absorb feedback exceptionally well. You aren’t afraid to make mistakes and learn from them, and you create an environment where your team can do the same. Above all, you enjoy taking ownership and are stifled by large organizations.

What You’ll Do

Technical Leadership:

*

Analyze product requirements and produce high-quality, production-ready code while creating a best-in-class user experience.

*

Build and maintain new user-facing features with everything from database models to UI components.

*

Own the technical architecture for major initiatives and guide the team through complex technical decisions.

*

Create services and APIs to drive existing and new features for web apps.

*

Maintain the health of our systems and codebase, refactor and make improvements, and keep our systems robust and resilient.

*

Write clear specs to ensure product/code quality for stress-free deployment.

*

Drive large releases to production on a continuous deployment cadence.

*

Set technical standards for code quality, testing, and engineering excellence.

People Leadership:

*

Directly manage 2-6 engineers, conducting 1:1s, performance reviews, and career development conversations.

*

Mentor engineers on technical growth, code quality, and problem-solving approaches through pairing sessions and thoughtful code reviews.

*

Unblock your team—whether that’s a technical challenge, a process bottleneck, or a cross-functional coordination issue.

*

Foster a culture of ownership, collaboration, and continuous improvement within your team.

*

Participate in hiring: interview candidates, assess technical skills, and help build a world-class engineering team.

*

Work with product and design partners to translate vision into executable technical plans your team can rally around.

What You Bring to the Table

*

7+ years of relevant experience on both frontend and backend development, with a proven track record of shipping high-impact products.

*

Experience leading, mentoring, or managing engineers—whether formal or informal. You’ve helped others level up.

*

Strong React fundamentals and a background working with Typescript/Node.

*

An intuitive understanding of what it takes to create delightful, consumer-oriented experiences.

*

Experience working in a start-up environment where you’ve worn multiple hats and moved fast.

*

Exceptional communication skills that help you influence product direction, align stakeholders, and give feedback that lands.

*

Extreme bias toward action and execution. You get antsy if you’re not writing code, improving the codebase, vigilantly enhancing systems, or helping your team do the same.

*

The ability to balance hands-on technical work with people management—you thrive in both modes.

*

Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to create structure where none exists.

Our Tech Stack

*

Typescript across all our applications

*

NestJS API with TypeORM

*

Postgres

*

Redis

*

React

*

Custom UI library built on shadcn

*

Tailwind

*

GCP

Applicants must be based in the United States.
