Watsi (YC W13, San Francisco, <a href="https://watsi.org" >) is a non-profit that enables anyone to directly fund life-changing healthcare for people around the world. We’re a team of developers, designers, doctors, and marketers who believe that everyone, everywhere deserves access to healthcare. We move fast, take risks, and come to work every day excited about building an organization that matters more than we do.
The engineering team is small, but with big responsibilities, as we’re building a platform that connects donors directly with patients around the world. We’re all full-stack engineers who believe in end-to-end ownership of products, as we manage anything from rows in databases to pixels on the screen. We believe in testing everything from code to design and aspire to create the best experience for all of Watsi’s users. Our stack is Rails, Backbone.js, SCSS, Postgres, Redis, Sidekiq, Heroku, RSpec, and Jasmine.
