Lead Software Engineer

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.

• 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.

Tech Stack

• LLMs and agentic systems
• Data pipelines and integrations
• APIs and backend systems
• Relational and analytical databases
• Cloud infrastructure
• Secure multi-tenant architecture
• Observability and monitoring

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.
