Job Description
The future of medical treatment has arrived but its not evenly distributed. Innovative medical technologies are entering the market every year but it takes up to a decade for US health insurers to actually cover those treatments for patients (and even longer outside the US) blocking patients from the best possible medical care.
We are a fast-growing Stanford-founded early-stage AI startup (with venture capital funding and a long runway). We use LLMs and AI agents to fight for medical coverage for individual patients.
We have five B2B customers including one of the largest companies in our customer-space and a large promising pipeline of prospective customers.
Check out our website (demo video at the bottom of the webpage) including About Us and Case Studies.
Job Responsibilities
We give major strategic ownership to everyone at the company.
Feature Development: Design build and iterate on end-to-end product features (frontend backend or both) using modern frameworks and cloud services.
Execution & Accountability: Turn product goals into scoped milestones and keep the team unblocked and on-time.
Product collaboration: Work with founders design and other engineers to translate user needs into simple scalable solutions.
Improve our generative AI capabilities. Foundational model training and fine-tuning wont be necessary but we do a lot of vertical-specific LLM orchestration.
Team & culture: Raise the bar via code reviews documentation and mentoring; help interview future teammates and shape engineering norms.
Qualifications
Required:
4 years of software engineering experience (full-stack preferred)
Strong Python and JavaScript/TypeScript skills
Comfort in ambiguous fast-paced environments; self-starter mindset
Detail-oriented with a high bar for quality and trust in healthcare tools
Ideal but not required:
Startup experience especially early stage
Experience with LLMs in real-world applications
Familiarity with React Node SQL Docker/Kubernetes
Tech stack
We use TypeScript in our frontend and Python for pretty much everything else. We run in a Kubernetes cluster on AWS and use various AWS services (S3 Bedrock etc) where it makes sense.
Compensation
We offer salary that is competitive with other startups and a very generous equity package (which youll get at a lower valuation before we raise our next funding round!). Benefits: health & dental (including vision).
Location
We offer hybrid (at least 3 days per week in the office) work-arrangements in Toronto or NYC.
