Job Summary
As one of the first backend engineers, you will own core services powering AI voice and browser agents deployed in live production environments. You will build reliable, low-latency systems that orchestrate agent workflows, integrate with healthcare systems and third-party portals, and maintain data security standards. You will work directly with founders and ship into customer environments regularly. WHAT YOU'LL DO: design and build core backend services and APIs that orchestrate AI voice and browser agents; build integrations with EHRs, scheduling systems, and insurance/payer portals; own reliability, observability, and performance of agent workflows in production; partner directly with leadership on architecture, technical tradeoffs, and product direction; help shape engineering culture, hiring, and operational practices as the team scales.
