Job description
We are looking for a full-time Chief Technology Officer (Founding CTO) to join our team. The CTO will lead the company's technical vision, oversee the development and delivery of cutting-edge software solutions, and design a scalable technology infrastructure. Key responsibilities include managing product development, leading software engineering efforts, defining IT and technology strategy, and collaborating closely with the CEO and be a credible presence in rooms with hospital CIOs, CMIOs, and engineering leaders.
Requirements
- 10+ years in software engineering, with meaningful leadership experience
- Must have deep familiarity with healthcare IT - EHR integrations (Epic, Oracle), HL7/FHIR, and the realities of hospital infrastructure
- Proven ability to build and ship enterprise software products, not just prototype
- Comfortable owning both technical architecture and product thinking
- Can hold your own in a room with skeptical health system executives (credibility matters here)
- Experience with AI/ML systems in production is a strong plus
- Startup experience - you've operated with ambiguity, limited resources, and high stakes
Interested? If you're frustrated (or worried) about the state of our healthcare system and want to do something about it, we'd love to hear from you! We move quickly and have strong bias for action - tell us what you've built and why this space matters to you and let make this happen.
Benefits & conditions
This is a sweat equity role until fundraising closes. We are bootstrapped by design and we're looking for someone energized by that, not deterred by it. Post-funding, compensation will be competitive and commensurate with the contribution you've made.
