About the role

  • Partner directly with our CEO and COO to design, architect, and build the technical foundation that powers Savoy Life’s caregiving‑first model.
  • Own the creation of our data infrastructure, intelligence layer, and early products that unify caregiving and clinical data—enabling risk stratification, clinical decision support, and scalable continuous care.
  • Implement and own the technical strategy for AI‑enabled clinical signals, early‑risk detection, sentiment analysis, and proactive care workflows.
  • Leverage LLMs to power both conversational, virtual rounding, and structured clinical summaries.
  • Use AI‑native tools (Copilot, Cursor, Claude, GitHub tools, agents) to accelerate prototyping and development velocity.
  • Create our data infrastructure, automated AI/BI driven insights, and BI querying.
  • Build and scale ETL pipelines that ingest data from QHIN data, HIEs, internal Savoy tools and potentially beyond.
  • Ensure data integrity and traceability across a wide variety of structured and unstructured inputs.
  • Build Savoy’s platform with HIPAA compliance and senior‑care regulatory needs from day one.
  • Implement secure data storage, encryption, auditing, access control, and monitoring frameworks.
  • Establish and enforce best practices for uptime, reliability, and operational readiness.
  • After building the first versions of our product, recruit, mentor, and develop engineers as the organization scales.
  • Establish engineering culture, SDLC practices, architectural standards, and performance expectations.

Requirements

  • 10+ years of engineering experience with a strong track record of building and shipping complex, high-impact products.

  • Expertise in database design, distributed systems, and event-driven architectures.
  • Hands-on experience deploying secure, scalable systems on AWS/Azure/GCP.
  • Experience with clinical data structures (EHR, care notes, vitals, symptoms), healthcare integration standards (FHIR/HL7), or related domains.
  • Understanding of HIPAA, PHI handling, and the nuances of clinical workflows.
  • Experience using LLMs to build production features (NLP, summarization, conversational AI, risk prediction, or agent frameworks).
  • Comfortable with prompt engineering, model selection, and grounding strategies.
  • Deep understanding of secure system design, encryption standards, access control models, auditability, and threat modeling.
