New York City (Hybrid)
We are working with an early-stage software company building a revenue intelligence platform for complex insurance workflows.
The company helps multi-location healthcare operators identify and recover insurance underpayments by reconciling contracts, claims, fee schedules, and remittance data, then automating evidence-backed recovery workflows.
Following a recent pre-seed raise, the team has strong runway, active design partners, and growing enterprise demand. They are now hiring their first full-time engineer to help lead technical direction and shape the future engineering team.
The Role
You’ll work directly with the founders and take broad ownership across the platform.
This is a highly hands-on role spanning product engineering, data systems, integrations, infrastructure and AI-driven workflows. You’ll help define technical direction, make key architectural decisions and play a major role in hiring and mentoring future engineers.
What You’ll Do
Own critical systems across data ingestion, reconciliation and recovery workflows.
Help set technical direction and make key architectural decisions.
Build reliable integrations across contracts, claims, remittance and customer data.
Develop evaluation and monitoring systems for models and automated workflows.
Work directly with customers to turn complex operational problems into simple products.
Shape engineering standards, processes and technical quality.
Help hire, onboard and mentor future engineers as the team grows.
What You’ll Bring
Strong software engineering fundamentals and experience owning important production systems.
Experience building products in an early-stage or fast-moving environment.
Strong product judgement and comfort working directly with customers.
Confidence making architectural decisions with limited direction.
Experience using modern AI tools while validating outputs and managing reliability.
An interest in technical leadership, mentoring and team building.
Healthcare, fintech or regulated-industry experience is useful but not required.
LLMs and agentic systems
Data pipelines and integrations
APIs and backend systems
Relational and analytical databases
Cloud infrastructure
Observability and monitoring
Why Join?
This is a true founding technical role with direct influence over the product, architecture and engineering culture.
You’ll work closely with the founders, help lead technical direction and play a major role in building the engineering team from the ground up.
