## Job description

**About Us**

We are building an agentic mesh network for US healthcare, deploying multimodal systems that can autonomously handle non-clinical tasks and with seamless execution between entities.

Our founding team is ex-Palantir with direct experience delivering mission-critical software to HHS, NIH, and other federal institutions. We are based in New York City and work in-office every day. We operate with an extremely flat structure. We ship, we learn, we compound.

**The Role**

You will design and build core systems that power autonomous agent orchestration across the most critical vertical within our country. This is not a feature-team role. You will own real subsystems with the autonomy and accountability that most engineers don't see until years into their careers.

**What You Will Build**

* **Agent runtime** — execution engine, task scheduling, state management, exception handling, and human-escalation pathways
* **Complex agent orchestration** — multi-agent coordination, tool use, real-time decision-making pipelines that process clinical documents, voice interactions, and multimodal healthcare data
* **Federated interoperability protocols** that enforce data residency while enabling cross-entity agent collaboration
* **Developer-facing abstractions** — APIs, SDKs, and workflow primitives that allow both internal and external teams to deploy agents on the platform

**Who You Are**

* **2+ years building production software.** You've shipped real systems — not just side projects, not demos. You've debugged something at 2am and know what it means to own what you build. Yes, Claude Code does a lot of the work, but you deeply understanding how to get compounding leverage from it and other tools every day.
* **You're excited by distributed agent systems** — state machines, message guarantees, fault tolerance, consensus. You may not have designed these from scratch yet, but you've thought hard about them and want to.
* **You're drawn to pushing the envelope of Applied AI.** You want to put the latest models into production — not just play with them. You understand that the gap between a demo and a deployed system is where the real engineering lives.
* **You operate with extreme ownership.** You don't wait for specs. You identify the highest-leverage problem and solve it. You'd rather ask forgiveness than wait for permission.
* **You're drawn to a sense of mission and purpose.** You want your work to matter — not in the abstract, but in a way you can point to.

**Compensation**

Top-of-market cash compensation plus significant founding-team equity. We pay for the best because we hire the best.

**New York City. In-office.**
