Automate prior authorization and predict medication coverage, cost, and requirements at the point of prescription. 5x throughput, more approvals. Backed by South Park Commons.
About the role
We're looking for a Staff Software Engineer who wants to set the direction for AI products that do real work in healthcare, and still write a lot of the code. You'll lead projects that span systems, from the experience prescribers see to the services and AI behind it, get people aligned on the approach, and see it through to adoption. Success here looks like the whole team shipping faster and more reliably, not just you. Some of what you'd lead, from setting the direction to seeing it adopted: Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- At least 8 years building and shipping production software, including setting the technical direction for a system multiple teams depend on and seeing it through to adoption
- You decide which problems are worth solving. You work with users and stakeholders to frame broad goals, negotiate scope, and push back when a requirement works against the outcome
- You design for where the product is going, not just the next feature. You weigh alternatives and failure modes across systems, know when an existing design needs to be replaced, and still reach for the simplest path there
- You raise the bar for the whole team. You spot the failures that keep coming back, fix the patterns behind them, and mentor engineers into owning bigger work
- You push coding agents to their limits, hold their code to the same bar as your own, and turn what you learn into practices the whole team uses
