  • Ensure all client-side integration and deployment methods are designed to meet rigorous standards, including SOC 2 and ISO 27001, HIPAA.
  • Work with client IT organizations to set deployments in complex settings, including public cloud (AWS/GCP), private cloud, and traditional on-premises/dedicated application environments.
  • Develop and use custom automation tooling (Python is a must) to streamline deployment processes, integrating with client-side identity and access management (e.g., OAuth2/OIDC).

  • Demonstrated experience managing or contributing to organizational compliance programs, specifically the development and implementation of policies and procedures related to HIPAA (HITECH Act) privacy/security rules and achieving SOC 2 attestation
  • Experience with data warehouse integrations with Snowflake, Databricks or other data warehouse platforms.
  • Experience managing and supporting deployments in environments beyond public cloud (e.g., on-premise, private cloud, or dedicated client application environments).

Nice to Have Experience

  • Familiarity with the architectural demands of distributed computing libraries (Ray, Modin, Pandas) is highly valued.
  • Familiarity with JavaScript/TypeScript, Node.js, and React.
  • Familiarity with leveraging generative AI tools in engineering workflows (e.g., Claude Code, Devin, Coderabbit).

About the company

The most consequential decisions in public health, life sciences, insurance, and enterprise strategy share a common problem: they involve human behavior, network effects, and downstream effects that cannot be safely tested before action is taken. Traditional analytical techniques built on historical data were not built for this. Epistemix was.

We build simulation and data-driven modeling tools that let leaders visualize how strategies will unfold across populations and systems before they commit resources. By clarifying which variables drive outcomes, where leverage exists, and how they interact, we help organizations move from uncertainty to conviction. Getting these decisions right means faster interventions, better-allocated resources, and measurable improvements in human and economic outcomes. We exist to make that possible.

Our platform gives organizations access to realistic, high-resolution population data and the modeling infrastructure to run scenario planning at scale. Together, these capabilities let decision-makers stress-test strategies in a controlled environment before deploying them in the real world across healthcare, consumer industries, insurance, and government. We are approaching our Series B and actively building the team that will define what comes next.
