About Malla

Malla is building the Shopify for next-gen health practitioners.

We started by operating our own functional medicine clinic and built much of the software we wished existed ourselves. Today, Malla serves close to 1k practitioners across our products, helping them run and grow their practices across care, commerce, and AI.

We're still a very small team, and we're entering a new chapter of the company. The next few years will be about giving independent practitioners the same tools that have historically only been available to venture-backed digital health companies, and helping them run and grow their practices with AI coworkers.

The role

You’ll own problems from the moment they’re still fuzzy through shipping the solution and learning from what happens.

That might mean talking directly with practitioners, figuring out what’s actually broken in their business, deciding whether the problem is worth solving, thinking through the business model, product design, and architecture, building the product, and getting it into customers’ hands.

In practice, you will:

• Own major products and problems from first principles through launch and iteration.
• Talk directly with customers and develop a deep understanding of how practitioners actually work.
• Make product decisions, not just technical ones.
• Seriously sweat the design details. This has been a huge edge for us (plus, we love good design a lot). We want someone who cares about interaction details, has strong taste, and can turn a rough idea into something that feels genuinely great to use.
• Move comfortably across the stack and make pragmatic architecture decisions without unnecessary complexity.
• Use AI deeply in your day-to-day work and continuously find ways to increase the speed and quality of what you ship.
• Ship a lot. We care about thoughtful work, but we also believe great product teams move very quickly.
• Help shape our engineering culture, standards, and eventually the team around you.
• Do whatever needs to get done. At our size, there is no "someone else" for most problems.
