About the role

About the Role

Join an early-stage healthtech team building clinical AI systems for healthcare payments. As a founding backend engineer, you will own core infrastructure and help bring clinical intelligence capabilities into reliable production workflows.

What You'll Do

  • Build and scale distributed backend systems for chart processing, claims, authorizations, denials, and healthcare integrations.
  • Develop browser and computer-use automation to navigate medical record software and payer portals.
  • Design reliable infrastructure for large volumes of scanned charts, PDFs, claims, clinical notes, and operational data.
  • Build orchestration, queuing, retry, and observability systems for long-running workflows across healthcare platforms.
  • Partner with research and product engineers to productionize new clinical intelligence capabilities and establish reusable engineering patterns.

What We're Looking For

  • At least 3 years of backend software engineering experience, with a focus on complex systems and infrastructure.
  • Strong Python, microservices, and distributed systems experience.
  • Experience owning and scaling backend infrastructure at a technically demanding company, such as in data infrastructure, fintech, or a related field.
  • Ability to design and deliver backend systems end to end, with minimal direction, while remaining hands-on in day-to-day coding.
  • Experience with production machine learning or LLM systems, plus data pipelines, workflow orchestration, or large and messy datasets.
  • Background in browser automation or complex integrations is useful.
  • Strong computer science, mathematics, or related technical fundamentals, and interest in working at an early-stage startup.
  • Must be authorized to work in the United States without visa sponsorship.
