Company mission
Proactive data-driven insights to enable clinicians to focus on what matters most.
Role
Who you are
- 5+ years building and operating production software, with strong backend, API, data modeling, and SQL skills
- Experience taking a complex third-party integration live with the technical team on the other side
- Evidence that you’ve built software around a customer’s workflow and improved it after they used it
- Enjoyment of customer work. You can investigate an unclear problem, explain tradeoffs, and decide what to build without waiting for a complete spec
Desirable
- You’ve founded a company or been an early engineer who owned the messy parts
- You’ve worked with EHRs, HL7, or FHIR. Strong engineering and integration judgment matters more than healthcare experience
What the job involves
- Build software with hospital teams, then turn what works into product
- HealthLeap helps clinicians find patients who need attention first
- We’re live at 40+ hospitals and plan to add another 100
- Each hospital has its own systems, API quirks, and clinical workflows
- You’ll work directly with hospital IT and clinical teams to understand what they need
- Much of the job is building and running integrations
- Some problems call for more: a tool to help a hospital inspect its data, analytics for a clinical team, or a workflow built around how that hospital works
- You’ll build those solutions and make the useful patterns reusable
- Our stack is Python and TypeScript
- Own the engineering work behind hospital integrations, from technical discovery through reliable production data
- Build and debug connections to record systems, including authentication, APIs, data mapping, and monitoring
- Work with hospital teams to investigate problems and test solutions with the people who use them
- Build customer tools or analytics when the standard product does not yet meet a hospital’s needs
- Turn repeated requests into reusable connectors, validation tools, and product features
Application process
- No LeetCode or puzzles. Use the tools you’d use on the job, including AI
- Intro call
- System design
- Take-home exercise
- Onsite with the team in San Francisco
- We decide the same week as the onsite
Our take
Founded after witnessing the tragic effects of untreated malnutrition in hospitals, HealthLeap AI aims to develop AI-assisted tools for healthcare professionals to better address hospital malnutrition. One such tool is the app NutriLeap, used by dieticians to enhance their assessment of a patient’s nutritional needs.
Typically, this work is done by hand but HealthLeap provides productivity-based solutions for often understaffed dietetics, enabling them to deliver efficient and bespoke treatment to patients. With the pandemic accelerating healthcare professionals’ use of digital tools, HealthLeap is positioned to capture a significant market share with its software.
With seed funding awarded in 2022, HealthLeap is now working to provide discharged patients with adequate aftercare, informing them of any changing nutritional needs, key to reducing hospital readmissions. Currently focused on the US market, HealthLeap's goal is to eradicate hospital malnutrition globally.
