• Identify cross-customer patterns that guide the agent platform strategy and integrate the latest AI advancements
• Build the agent infrastructure layer — context engineering, tool orchestration, memory, and evals — across the entire healthcare revenue cycle

Required

• 1–8 years of experience as a full‑stack or product engineer, currently in an active IC engineering role
