San Francisco, United States (USA) · Hybrid (Office and Remote) · Full-time

About this role

We’re now looking for a Co-Founder & Chief Technology Officer (CTO) to join us at the ground floor.

🎯 What You’ll Do
  • Technology leadership – Define and execute the product architecture, tech stack, and AI integration strategy.
  • Product development – Build and scale the MVP into a secure, compliant, enterprise-ready SaaS product for hospitals.
  • AI & automation – Drive innovation using LLMs, predictive analytics, and clinical decision support.
  • Integrations – Lead integration with EHR systems (Epic, Cerner, Meditech) via FHIR APIs.
  • Team building – Recruit, mentor, and scale a high-performing engineering team in India and globally.
  • Process & compliance – Build HIPAA/GDPR-ready infrastructure, ensuring enterprise-grade reliability and data security.
  • Co-Founder role – Be part of every strategic decision from fundraising to go-to-market.
✅ What We’re Looking For
  • Hands-on full-stack engineering leader (7–10+ years) with proven experience in SaaS or healthtech.
  • Strong background in AI/ML, data engineering, and cloud-native architecture.
  • Experience with EHR systems, FHIR/HL7, or healthcare data standards is a big plus.
  • Entrepreneurial DNA – you want to build a company from zero to scale as a true co-founder (bonus if you’ve been a founder before).
  • Ability to thrive in ambiguity and move fast in an early-stage environment.
  • Passion for solving real-world healthcare problems with technology.
🎁 What We Offer
  • Meaningful co-founder equity – true ownership, aligned with impact and commitment.
  • Opportunity to build from the ground up alongside repeat founders (Stanford alum, VC-backed track record, multi-sector experience).
  • A massive global market – healthcare workflow inefficiencies and staffing shortages are one of the biggest systemic challenges worldwide.
  • Early exposure to a strong network of advisors, clinicians, and investors in the U.S., India, and beyond.
  • A chance to shape one of the first AI-native healthcare platforms with global scale potential.
