Rune Labs

Rune Labs is a software and data analytics company for precision neurology, supporting care delivery and therapy development, advancing data-driven therapies for diseases such as Parkinson’s, MS, OCD, and other neurological conditions. Rune aims to fill the gap in software and data support for next-generation neuroscience therapeutics, and expand the benefits of precision medicine to the millions of patients with neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases. We’re revenue-generating and well-funded by top-tier investors.

Rune’s first-in-class precision brain data software platform integrates electrophysiology, brain imaging, and device data together with wearable data and clinical labels. The combination provides researchers, drug developers, and clinicians with the tools to guide treatment, uncover hidden disease phenotypes, and design better-targeted therapies.

StrivePD is our care delivery ecosystem for Parkinson’s disease, enabling patients and clinicians to better manage Parkinson’s by providing access to curated dashboards summarizing a range of patient data sources, and by connecting patients to clinical trials. For therapeutics development, biopharma and medical device companies leverage Rune’s technology, network of engaged clinicians and patients, and large longitudinal real-world datasets to expedite development programs.

The Job

You’ll be working on Rune’s StrivePD platform, where clinicians deliver precision neurology to people living with Parkinson’s Disease. You will design and create a web experience used live in the clinic. If you’re passionate about healthcare, data visualization, or neuroscience and neurology, this role is a great fit for you. We’re hoping this person can quickly grow into a team lead, becoming an active mentor for teammates and an architect for the evolving platform.

Core Responsibilities 

  1. Design, implement, test, and maintain software for our cloud platform: This is a hands-on software development position. You will help architect our platform as it evolves, and write software that is used in a critical medical context. As a senior engineer you will help shape the future of the product, and ensure we’re shipping high quality, extensible code by defining standards around testing and releasing new code.
  2. Share responsibility for production. We’re not perfect, but our infrastructure is fully automated and our stack is instrumented with observability, CI/CD, and strong security practices. You will be responsible for upholding and improving these practices, including writing tests, validating your work, participating in daily production deploys, and being on an on-call rotation during West Coast business hours (8:00 am - 5:00 pm PT).
  3. Mentor and be mentored. Give and receive thoughtful feedback on feature design, code reviews, and more. Mentor and develop your team members on technical concepts. Promote a culture that values technical excellence together with support and compassion for individuals
  4. Work on a Cross-functional team: You will work directly with Product Managers, Project Managers, Designers, and other teams to define and refine features. You will also need to be an advocate for short- and long-term technical priorities.
  5. Advocate for our company and team values: We emphasize diversity, humility, transparency, and putting the needs of the Patient first.
