About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Build systems that live inside clinical workflows: You'll shape how Heidi integrates with the EHRs that run American healthcare. The goal isn't connectivity—it's making Heidi feel like a native capability, not a plugin.
Turn clinical complexity into simple experiences: US healthcare has layers of billing rules, compliance requirements, and payer constraints. You'll build systems that absorb that complexity so clinicians never see it.
Build for trust and quality: Write clean, testable code with strong interfaces, thoughtful error handling, and observability. These workflows are depended on by clinicians, operators, and downstream systems.
Own outcomes, not just code: You'll care about whether the things you build actually help clinicians and improve practice revenue—not just whether they technically work.
Ship agentic workflow functionality: Build systems where AI assists with extraction, reconciliation, and drafting across workflows, with human review, auditability, and clear controls.
Operate in close collaboration: Work day-to-day in a highly collaborative environment, including frequent pairing and shared ownership of design and implementation.
Grow with the domain: Learn how healthcare organizations operate in practice, especially the requirements and constraints that come with serving US customers, and translate that into product improvements.

Requirements

What you’ll need

3-5 years of software engineering experience, with demonstrated ability to ship features that real users depend on.
Strong full-stack fundamentals and experience contributing to user-facing products.
Sound engineering judgment: You make sensible trade-offs, keep scope clear, and improve quality through testing, readable code, and thoughtful design—with support and feedback from the team.
Ownership and follow-through: You take responsibility for what you commit to, communicate clearly when something changes, and ask for help early when you're blocked.
Collaborative working style: You work well with others, enjoy building in a tight feedback loop, and are comfortable pairing and sharing work in progress.
Comfort with ambiguity: You can engage with messy problems, ask good questions, and help drive toward a practical, shippable solution.
Fluency with AI coding tools: You use modern AI tools to accelerate delivery, while staying rigorous about correctness and validation.
Experience with agentic frameworks, modelling complex domains, orchestration, and event-driven architectures is a plus.
