Role

Who you are

  • 5+ years of experience building, shipping, and operating cloud-based distributed systems at scale - You’ve seen what works, and probably a few things that didn’t work. Your opinions are grounded in experience
  • Experience as a lead engineer on a number of major components or subsystems of a software platform, or have been the lead for the platform itself
  • Confidence knowing your way around event pipelines and experience with tools such as Kinesis or Kafka
  • Several years of experience building software for a regulated environment, and understand the tradeoffs that can be required to ensure compliance with regulations and frameworks such as HIPAA, SOC 2, and HITRUST
  • Willingness to pitch in wherever needed -- as a fast-moving startup we need to do good work, quickly
  • Must be willing to work from our SF or NY office at least 3x per week

What the job involves

  • We’re looking for Staff & Senior Full Stack Software Engineers to join our growing team. You’ll play a key role in helping us scale and mature our business by building and supporting new + existing web applications and their supporting backends
  • You’ll be writing code (mostly Typescript), making architectural decisions, recommending technologies to adopt, and ensuring that our systems scale up reliably and securely
  • Design, build, and support the robust cloud-based services we need for our rapidly-growing business
  • Make and implement technology decisions that support business needs without compromising security, privacy, or quality
  • Research commercial and open-source solutions, and make build vs buy recommendations to bring new capabilities into the technology organization. You’ll have a say in the technology strategy — not just implementation details
  • Enhance existing systems to add new functionality, and to improve performance, stability, quality, and security
  • Advocate for high standards; make quality-of-life improvements to the codebase; and help limit the growth of technical debt
  • Build deep user empathy and maintain a user-centric mindset
  • Communicate regularly and effectively within and on behalf of our cross-functional product delivery teams. You’ll work with other disciplines including design, product, machine learning, and infrastructure, and will have opportunities to learn from and contribute to projects across the company

Our take

Summarizing key elements of healthcare conversations is crucial for both physicians and patients. Medical scribes, though effective, are costly, and the healthcare system faces funding and staffing crises. This has created a demand for more efficient notetaking solutions.

This is where Abridge comes in, it has developed a HIPAA-compliant AI platform that transcribes, structures, summarizes, and provides insights from audio or transcripts of medical conversations. It claims to work across all specialities and offers patient-friendly summaries in easy-to-understand language.

Abridge aims to alleviate pressure on the healthcare system from the patient's perspective, a unique approach among healthtech startups. While companies like Inovia, DOUB, and DeepScribe focus on assisting physicians with medical transcription AI, they lack Abridge's patient-centric features, which are valuable in enhancing the patient experience.
