About wawa fertility

17% of adults worldwide need help to have a baby - and by 2050, that number will reach nearly 50%. Yet only 2% can access fertility treatment today. That’s not a gap; it’s a canyon. And we’re building the bridge.

At wawa fertility, we’re on a mission to make fertility care accessible to 100% of those who need it - transforming success rates and accessibility worldwide. Our end-to-end platform digitises the entire fertility journey, enabling clinics to swap spreadsheets for seamless workflows and spend less time on admin, more time on life-changing care.

We’re not tiptoeing around an industry plagued by stale incumbents and outdated tech. We’re sprinting through it. With proven product-market fit, our platform is live in 14+ countries and scaling fast. Clinics trust us. Patients rely on us. And the impact we’re making is real.

We’re building the operating system for the future of fertility care. And we’d love you to help us deliver it.

The Mission

Who You Are

You’re the kind of engineer who sees a tangled codebase and thinks “I can fix that” - not “that’s not my problem.” You thrive when the stakes are high, the pace is quick, and the work genuinely matters.

You don’t just write code; you craft solutions. You care about the humans on the other end of every feature - the nurse checking scan results at 7am, the patient anxiously refreshing their app. Great design and snappy UX aren’t nice-to-haves for you; they’re non-negotiables.

Autonomy energises you. You set your own timelines, own your deliverables, and keep the team in the loop without being asked. You fail fast, learn faster, and never make the same mistake twice (well… almost never ).

️ What You’ll Do

This is a role for builders who want to make a direct impact. We’re creating a complete operating system for fertility clinics - from managing follicle scans to processing payments. It’s a rare chance to reinvent healthcare workflows for an entire sector.

• Build and ship features end-to-end in a modern Rails 8 stack with Hotwire, Phlex, and Tailwind.

• Solve genuinely complex problems daily - healthcare data, real-time scheduling, multi-country compliance.

• Collaborate with designers and clinicians to deliver interfaces that are fast, intuitive, and beautiful.

• Take ownership of your domain: you’re not waiting for a ticket - you’re spotting the opportunity and running with it.

• Shape the architecture and engineering culture of a product used by clinics across 14+ countries.

What You Bring

• A deep appreciation of The Rails Way, with the chops to build elegant, scalable solutions.

• Experience shipping production features in Ruby on Rails (bonus points for Hotwire / Turbo / Stimulus).

• Transparent and intellectually honest communication - you say what you mean and mean what you say.

• A hunger for high-tempo environments where speed and quality are balanced through individual responsibility.

• An eye for great design and a drive to create experiences as beautiful as they are functional.

• A willingness to fail fast and learn faster… two-way doors are your favourite kind of doors.
