What we do

Join a team of passionate and hard working entrepreneurs to transform healthcare!

Working in the tech team at Doctolib involves building innovative products and features to improve the daily lives of care teams and patients. We work in feature teams in an agile environment, while collaborating with engineering, product, design, and business teams.

What you’ll do

We are looking for a Software Engineer to join our Find Your Practitioner team, part of the Healthcare Access stream within our B2C oriented domain “Patient Health Platform”.

Our team is dedicated to helping millions of patients discover and book the right healthcare practitioner, by continuously optimizing the search and matching experience. Every day, our search engine handles a massive volume of queries, from broad specialty searches to highly specific medical needs, and our mission is to make sure every patient finds the right care, fast.

By joining our team, you’ll solve exciting technical challenges at scale. With millions of searches processed daily across a constantly evolving catalog of practitioners, we continuously engineer robust solutions for search relevance, ranking quality, query performance, personalization, and system reliability.

Your mission:

• Shaping the future of healthcare access: Work alongside product managers and engineers to build search and discovery features that directly impact millions of patients looking for care.
• Driving technical excellence in search: Take ownership of architectural decisions on our Search-based stack, and help define our technical roadmap to deliver fast, relevant, and personalized results at scale.
• Improving relevance & ranking: Iterate on ranking strategies, indexing pipelines, and query understanding to continuously raise the quality of results and the patient conversion rate.
• Learning and growing with the team: Share your expertise through code reviews, technical discussions, and mentoring, while helping us refine our development practices from design to deployment.
• Owning meaningful outcomes: Lead the delivery of high-impact features that measurably improve how patients find and book the right practitioner.
