Founding Product Engineer

About the Role

Join an early-stage healthtech team building AI-powered tools for clinical trial recruitment and patient engagement. As a founding product engineer, you will shape the product across the stack and help connect patients with relevant clinical studies.

What You'll Do

• Build and orchestrate AI agents that support patient recruitment across clinical trials.

• Develop machine learning capabilities to match patient profiles with trials using real-world outcomes.

• Scale consistent, personalized LLM-powered conversations across voice, SMS, and email.

• Integrate with existing clinical research systems, including platforms without public APIs.

• Own product improvements from design and implementation through deployment and customer feedback.

What We're Looking For

• One to six years of software engineering experience building products for real users.

• Strong CS, EECS, mathematics, or related technical fundamentals.

• Full-stack experience across frontend, backend, and infrastructure, with a record of shipping end-to-end product work.

• Experience taking ownership of projects through design, coding, deployment, and user feedback.

• Proficiency with TypeScript, Python, Next.js, Terraform, AWS, and Docker, or closely related tools.

• Early-stage startup, founding engineer, or founder experience is valued, as is work in healthcare or life sciences technology.

• Comfort working directly on user-facing products and writing code without relying on AI coding tools.
