# Why you should work here:

- 🚀 Hyper-growth environment: Get firsthand exposure to how a startup scales from 0→1→n, with visibility across product, engineering, and operations
- 🤝 High trust and autonomy: You’ll own meaningful projects from day one and shape both technical decisions and product direction. We trust engineers to figure out the best path forward - without micromanagement.
- 🧠 Talent-dense team: Work with a top-percentile team built on mutual respect and admiration, with shared goals, motivations, and vision for the future.
- ⚡ Real impact: Your code will directly improve access to mental health care for thousands of patients and clinicians

What we're looking for:

- Highly motivated, ambitious, and capable - looking to tackle a large, meaningful problem area
- Ownership mindset - thinking for the long-term and placing the business and our customers first
- High velocity and high excellence - have a real sense of urgency to move quickly and take pride in the quality of your work
- An explorer - comfortable with ambiguity and autonomy, seeking to answer questions previously unasked, to leap into the unknown
- An optimist - you believe in a tomorrow better than today
- A builder - you take joy in bringing new creation to the world, in leveraging technology to make useful things
- Humble - you use your gifts in the service of others and understand that success is an output, not an input

What you'll do:

- Build and ship AI-native product experiences used directly by clinicians and patients
- Design and develop LLM-powered systems and agents that automate and augment complex healthcare workflows
- Own AI features end-to-end, from prototyping and experimentation through production deployment, evaluation, and iteration
- Build robust evaluation, monitoring, and feedback systems to continuously improve AI quality, reliability, and performance
- Work across models, prompts, tools, retrieval systems, and application infrastructure to solve real-world product problems
- Move quickly from emerging AI capabilities to production-ready experiences that deliver measurable value
- Collaborate closely with clinicians and engineers to understand complex healthcare workflows and determine where AI can have the greatest impact

You'll thrive here if you:

- Have 2+ years of professional software engineering experience outperforming in high-quality environments
- Have experience building and shipping LLM-powered applications or AI products in production
- Are fluent in Python and/or TypeScript
- Have worked with modern LLM APIs, agentic systems, tool calling, retrieval, structured outputs, or similar applied AI patterns
- Think rigorously about evals, reliability, latency, cost, and failure modes , not just whether a prototype works
- Are comfortable moving across the stack and quickly experimenting with new models, frameworks, and techniques
- Love autonomy, ambiguity, experimentation, and ownership
- Are authorized to work in the U.S. and excited to be in-person in NYC 5 days a week
