About Lively

An estimated 48 million Americans suffer from hearing loss and only 10-15% have treated it – enter Lively. We’re on a mission to empower people to hear better through more affordable, accessible and delightful hearing care.

Lively is a series A company, perfect for anyone eager to make an early impact in something big. We are a unique blend of experts and leaders from Facebook, Amazon, 1stdibs, Lyft, and have assembled a world-class advisory board and audiology team. 

Culture

  • Deep understanding of core modern web concepts such a Single Page App and Server Side vs. Client Side Rendering.
  • Familiarity with server-side technologies such as Node.js or Java.
  • Demonstrated design and UX sensibilities.
