Rula

Rula is a remote-first mental healthcare company that works to remove barriers and strengthen connections between patients, providers, and payers. Its stated aim is to make quality mental healthcare accessible and to improve mental health outcomes across the United States. The company operates at the intersection of several fields: mental healthcare delivery, health insurance and payer relationships, and provider networks.

Engineering work at Rula spans healthcare technology, platform engineering, and AI-assisted software development. Engineers ship to production frequently and the company describes itself as optimising for rapid product iteration. AI-assisted development tools are used to accelerate delivery, with an explicit commitment to technical excellence and to products intended to have substantial human impact.

The company has been remote-first since its founding and hires across the United States. Working practices are structured accordingly: autonomy and ownership are valued, meetings are kept to a minimum, and the emphasis is placed on focus rather than facetime. Collaboration is maintained through written and thoughtful communication rather than synchronous presence.
