About the role
DayDream helps dentists get paid for the work they do. In this $165B market, our product simplifies the complex process of verifying insurance coverage, submitting claims, appealing denials, billing patients, and maintaining clean books. As a result of how complex this process is and how many things get lost in the process, dentists can lose 10-20% of their revenue!
What this leads to is the things patients hate about the American healthcare system: it’s inefficient, unaffordable, and just too d*mn confusing. We work with a lot of dentists and they don’t love it either. Dentists want to treat you, help you, and see you smile.
We believe that by automating parts of revenue cycle management, we increase financial transparency for everyone involved - patients, providers, and help support small business owner dentists across America.
The Role
We are looking for a frontend focused engineer.
Responsibilities
- Create and maintain a reusable component library in React/Next.js from the ground-up.
- Build interactive workflows that visualize complex insurance and financial data.
- Set and continually increase the bar for UI/UX polish.
- Bring structure and craft to our frontend codebase, focusing on accessibility, performance, and responsiveness.
- Help establish frontend patterns, design systems, and interface conventions.
Signs You're a Good Fit
- You have experience building “power tools,” meaning complex, multi-step interfaces with high functionality.
- You have deep experience with React and Next.js.
- You have deep experience optimizing React performance.
- You have built and maintained a scalable component system or design system.
- You have strong design sensibility and a high bar for UI polish and interaction.
Current Problems to Be Solved
- How do we build a maintainable component library?
- How do we virtualize our large tables?
- How do we build reusable page layouts to ensure consistency across the app?
- How do we build UIs that allow users to configure complex data pipeline schemas in a no-code way?
- How do we make our UI as dense as possible to increase productivity while maintaining usability for non technology-native users?
