About the role

We're hiring a senior product engineer to own the user-facing experience of our platform. This role focuses on turning complex clinical workflows into interfaces that feel simple, reliable, and delightful. You'll build multi-step forms, workflow-driven user interfaces, and product features that clinicians depend on every day. You'll also be building new product surfaces that do not exist yet. Today the system has a small set of core workflows, and over the next year that number will grow significantly. This role is about creating those new capabilities from scratch, not maintaining an existing UI. You'll work closely with the CTO to integrate those interfaces with backend systems and maintain clear API contracts. This role is frontend-heavy but requires comfort reasoning about backend behavior when debugging integration issues. How We Work We use tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Codex heavily throughout development. They are a normal part of how we move quickly on implementation, exploration, and iteration. Engineers are responsible for what ships. We expect people to understand system behavior, review generated code carefully, debug failures, and maintain a high bar for reliability, security, and production quality. We look for engineers who use AI for leverage while still owning their code end-to-end. We review meaningful changes together as a team so everyone maintains context on how the system works end-to-end.

Responsibilities

  • Own the user interface and experience across core clinical and operational workflows
  • Build production features using Next.js, React, and TypeScript
  • Implement complex multi-step forms and workflow-driven interfaces
  • Build AI-powered tools that help clinicians with documentation, clinical decision support, and voice-driven workflows
  • Work with generated API clients and maintain frontend/backend contract alignment
  • Translate real-world workflow requirements into usable software
  • Build new product capabilities from scratch as the platform expands
  • Collaborate closely with product, design, and clinical stakeholders
  • Use AI development tools to accelerate implementation while maintaining code quality
  • Participate in code reviews and technical planning
  • Our Stack
  • Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind, Turborepo, Python (Django, async-first), PostgreSQL, workflow state machines, and clinical integrations using Medplum and FHIR.
  • Our services run on AWS and Kubernetes, and we rely on Terraform for IaC and Datadog for APM and infrastructure monitoring.
  • We maintain automated testing and deployment pipelines using Github Actions and integrate with AI providers including Google, Anthropic, and OpenAI.
  • What Success Looks Like
  • You independently scope and deliver production features
  • You build new product surfaces that become core parts of the system
  • Complex workflows feel simple to the people using them
  • The product behaves predictably in real clinical settings
  • You use AI tools effectively while maintaining ownership of system behavior
  • Frontend code remains maintainable as the system grows
  • You can debug a production issue that crosses the frontend/backend/infrastructure boundary without waiting for someone else

Requirements

  • 5+ years building production web applications
  • Strong TypeScript experience and proficiency with React and Next.js
  • Experience building complex multi-step forms or workflow-driven interfaces
  • Familiarity with API contracts and backend integrations
  • Comfortable tracing application behavior across frontend and backend systems, including reading and debugging Python/Django code when needed
  • Comfort working in a fast-moving startup environment
  • Experience working in an AI-assisted development workflow
  • Experience with healthcare or regulated software
  • Familiarity with FHIR or clinical data systems (helpful but not required)
  • Strong product intuition and pragmatic engineering judgment
  • What It's Like to Work with Us
  • We're building something ambitious, and we care deeply about how we show up while we do it.
  • 🤝 We stay close to clinicians
  • We spend time with the people we serve, in their practices and in their communities. The best ideas come from understanding their reality and building alongside them.
  • ⚡ We take responsibility and move things forward
  • If something matters, we d
