Founding Engineer

About the company

Our client is a healthcare technology company.

The role

Raydar is recruiting for this role on behalf of our client. Own engineering work end to end on production AI systems, from technical design through deployment and ongoing iteration. Set your own success measures, make key technical decisions, and work in person with the leadership team. This role suits a generalist who has taken full ownership of outcomes rather than executing assigned tasks.

What you'll do

- Design and build AI-driven systems that run multi-step workflows reliably at scale.

- Own systems end to end, from architecture through production operation.

- Shape technical strategy with the founders and define how success is measured.

- Iterate quickly using feedback drawn from live usage data.

- Work across the full stack, choosing whatever tools suit the problem.

Requirements

What we're looking for

- Proven experience designing and running production systems end to end.

- A track record of owning outcomes and making independent decisions.

- Comfort working across the full stack, without a narrow specialty.

- A computer science or engineering degree.

Bonus points

- Prior founder experience, or senior engineering experience gained before AI coding tools became common.

- Experience at early-stage startups or health technology companies.

- Experience building and deploying LLM or agent systems in production.

- Experience with automated phone calling systems.

- Background from a leading engineering university.

- Experience as a student-athlete.
