A stealth healthcare AI startup is building agents that can do the work of GPs: diagnose triage communicate with patients and handle the data layers that sit underneath all of it. The mission is blunt - make healthcare accessible by automating the parts that do not require a human.
You will be one of the engineers who build the actual system not a proof of concept. You will deploy it into hospitals and clinics. You will be responsible for whether it works in production under real conditions with real patient data.
This is a Python-heavy distributed systems role. It is not a research role and it is not an ML theory role. It is a build-and-ship role in a domain where getting it wrong has consequences.
Deploy and refine AI-driven patient communication and triage systems directly with hospitals and clinics.
Architect and scale agent orchestration systems built on LLMs and agentic frameworks.
Build and maintain secure healthcare data layers with low-latency voice and video capabilities.
Scale distributed systems under real clinical load.
Work in a small team which means you own things end to end not hand them off.
Healthcare AI has a gap between demo and production that is wider than almost any other domain. The challenge here is not building something that works in a notebook and it is building something that works reliably in a hospital handles sensitive patient data correctly performs under latency constraints and does not fail silently when it matters most.
You need to be comfortable with ambiguity with incomplete specs and with the weight of building systems that affect real patients.
5 years of senior engineering experience building complex production-grade systems.
Strong Python skills this is the core language not optional.
Proven ability to take ambiguous requirements and ship scalable working solutions.
Hands-on experience with LLMs agent-based architectures or distributed AI systems in production.
Experience working in healthcare fintech or another high-stakes regulated domain is a strong advantage.
High ownership mentality in a lean team and no one is going to manage your tickets for you.
Python (primary)
Go Rust or TypeScript (secondary and bring what you know)
LLMs and agentic frameworks
Distributed systems and cloud infrastructure (AWS or equivalent)
Low-latency voice and video
Secure healthcare data layers
Not a research or experimentation role.
Not a large eng team where you own one microservice and nothing else.
Not a role where the stack is locked and the architecture is already decided.
Not a role for someone who needs clean well-defined requirements to get started.
