Vibrant is building the AI-powered operating system for modern, practitioner-led care, so clinicians can deliver high-touch, personalized medicine without drowning in admin. Think “Cursor for clinicians”: one intelligent workflow that unifies charting, operations, and decision support.

We’re Seed stage with focused runway and working directly with real clinics. If you want ownership, hard problems, and meaningful equity, this is it.

Why this role exists

Own v1/v2 of a product clinicians use every day and see your work land in real practices within weeks.

Shape the company: architecture, product direction, hiring bar, and execution rituals.

Build where AI is actually useful—reducing clinical busywork and improving care decisions.

What you’ll do

Design and build the core product surface end-to-end: data modeling, APIs, front-end experience, and the glue between them.

Ship AI-powered workflows for clinicians (reasoning support, summarization, drafting, retrieval) with evaluation, safety, and versioning.

Integrate with clinical systems (EHRs, scheduling, comms, telemedicine) and make them feel seamless.

Bake in privacy and compliance from day one (auditability, access controls, secure handling of sensitive data).

Create leverage: internal tooling, observability, CI/CD, lightweight guardrails so a small team can ship weekly.

Work directly with founders and clinicians to scope, prototype, measure, and iterate quickly.

You might be a fit if you’ve…

Built 0→1 at an early-stage startup and owned an entire product slice.

Are a true full-stack generalist who enjoys moving across data, APIs, and UI as the problem demands.

Shipped LLM-based features (or credible prototypes) and care about evaluations, safety, and iteration speed.

Have a strong technical foundation (CS or comparable quantitative degree) and product taste.

Move with ownership and curiosity: you learn fast, reduce scope intelligently, and make things real.

Logistics

Remote: This role is remote, ideally based in the San Francisco Bay Area or interested in relo. Open to other locations w/ travel for the right candidate.

Comp: $180-220k base + 0.5 - 0.8% equity.
