Who We Are Open Government Products is a team of engineers, designers, and product managers who build technology for public good. We identify problem spaces where technology can help, test prototypes with real users, then bring the best ones to launch. We keep our hierarchy flat so we can push past bureaucracy to focus on delivery. With 70% of our initiatives starting from the ground up, you will have real ownership over products that shape how citizens interact with their government.

The portfolio spans citizen-facing services like booking preventive care and checking subsidies, and the operational systems behind them: referral platforms, critical-results messaging, and case management tools used across hospitals and community providers. You would own one of these product teams end to end as both Tech Lead and Manager, taking work from problem definition through launch and iteration. You'd work alongside designers, product managers, and partners across MOH, hospital clusters, GP clinics, and community providers, spending time understanding how healthcare services actually operate before building the systems that support them. As Tech Lead, you set technical direction: architecture, integrations, reliability, observability, security, and the trade-offs between shipping quickly and building something hospitals can rely on for decades. As Manager, you own the engineering team: hiring, coaching, and running the performance and career conversations that help engineers grow.
