Women in Tech

Building a strong community of Women in Tech & Product

Join our team

Women in tech

In 2019, we pledged to building a strong community of Women in Tech. Our goal is to attract and empower talented women in the Tech & Product teams at Doctolib.

Goals

  • Empower every woman to thrive in Tech & Product
  • Create a vibrant and supportive community to share and grow together
  • Build an even more inclusive company
  • Inspire and encourage more women to join tech and product roles at Doctolib and beyond

  • +8% Women Software Engineers

    Since we started our initiative, the results have been very encouraging. Between Nov 2019 and Nov 2020, the number of Women Software Engineers in our teams has increased by 8%.

  • 30% of women in our teams

    Doctolib took a strong commitment to make our workplace a safe and welcoming environment.

  • Concrete actions and support

    Being impact oriented and pragmatic, we focused our efforts on real concrete actions making Doctolib a safe, supportive and fulfilling environment for women in tech. Learn more bellow.

Some of our actions so far

Of course, no one has cracked the code to having a more balance representation of women in Tech & Product (but if you have, let us know). But we’re doing our best to change things for the better, adapting effective initiatives inspired by other industries, and coming up with new ideas to test.

Making words matter

We started by reviewing our job ads with a gender decoding tool to make sure we use inclusive and fair language.

Bringing people together

We created several places for our Women in Tech community to exist, with a dedicated Slack channel, and meaningful moments throughout the year.

Sharing experiences

We have created recurring moments to get together and discuss topics that impact our lives as professionals, from personal branding to raise negotiation, gearing up for a promotion, pitching your project…

Staying inspired

We organise the “Meet Series” series, a bi-monthly internal meetup where we invite a Senior Woman in Tech from another company to tell us about her journey, and take part in an informal Q&A with our community. We have been honored to discuss with speakers from GitHub, MongoDB, HackerOne…

Spreading the word

We write blog articles on topics that matter to us in technology, the e-health industry, conference writeups… to share our unique perspective within Doctolib and in the Women in Tech community at large.

Have a look

Broadening our horizons

We have unlocked a budget to attend meetups and conferences for Women in Tech. For example, we participated in the European Women In Tech conference in Amsterdam.

Taking space

We encourage our Women in Tech to speak at meetups and conferences. And we provide public speaking training too.

Keeping a safe environment

We think all of these initiatives can only work if we work in a company where everyone can be educated on inclusion (not just around Women In Tech), and become an ally, so we started training our tech leadership teams on unconscious bias. We’ve also created our code of conduct. And we’re just getting started!
