Senior Software Engineer

Dentologie isn’t your parent’s dentist office. We know our patients are busy, and scheduling a dental appointment is low on their priority list. Our founders (three life-long friends and dentists!) wanted to make the process as easy as calling a car or sending a text. We’ve created an app that allows you to easily schedule an appointment in our amazing offices that are located just down the street from where you live.

Our combination of industry changing technology and personable/affordable care makes us truly unique, and we’re growing quickly. Located throughout Chicago, we have opened nine dental office locations with plans to double in size over the next two years. To support our incredible growth, our team has grown to over 190 employees.

We are building technology to both delight patients and match our ambitions. To that end, we need a Senior Software Engineer to help us to create a scalable, sustainable, and user-friendly group of apps and systems. We are seeking an experienced developer who can thrive in a start-up environment, make technology decisions on their own, and focus on the needs of the patients and business. Working closely with the VP of Technology, this individual will push the dental industry to innovate its’ approach to technology and patient experience.

Where will I be located?

Our headquarters, founding members, dental offices and clinical staff are currently all based in Chicago, so proximity to Chicago is preferred but not required.

Who will I report to?

You will report directly to Adam Greuling, our VP of Technology.
