About Us

Hippocratic AI is the leading generative AI company in healthcare. We have the only system that can have safe, autonomous, clinical conversations with patients. We have trained our own LLMs as part of our Polaris constellation, resulting in a system with over 99.9% accuracy.

Why Join Our Team

  • Reinvent healthcare with AI that puts safety first. We’re building the world’s first healthcare-only, safety-focused LLM — a breakthrough platform designed to transform patient outcomes at a global scale. This is category creation.

  • Work with the people shaping the future. Hippocratic AI was co-founded by CEO Munjal Shah and a team of physicians, hospital leaders, AI pioneers, and researchers from institutions like El Camino Health, Johns Hopkins, Washington University in St. Louis, Stanford, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and NVIDIA.

  • Backed by the world’s leading healthcare and AI investors. We recently raised a $126M Series C at a $3.5B valuation, led by Avenir Growth, bringing total funding to $404M with participation from CapitalG, General Catalyst, a16z, Kleiner Perkins, Premji Invest, UHS, Cincinnati Children’s, WellSpan Health, John Doerr, Rick Klausner, and others.

  • Build alongside the best in healthcare and AI. Join experts who’ve spent their careers improving care, advancing science, and building world-changing technologies — ensuring our platform is powerful, trusted, and truly transformative.

We believe the best ideas happen together. To support fast collaboration and a strong team culture, this role is expected to be in our Palo Alto office five days a week unless otherwise specified.

About the Role

As a Lead Fullstack Engineer at Hippocratic AI, you will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of AI-powered healthcare voice agents through the development of our Generative AI SaaS products. You’ll work across the entire technology stack—front-end and back-end to deliver intelligent, voice-first healthcare solutions that are safe, scalable, and transformative.

This is a highly collaborative role where you will partner with AI researchers, product managers, designers, and healthcare professionals to translate complex requirements into performant, secure, and accessible digital experiences. From crafting seamless mobile interactions to building robust APIs and designing user-facing dashboards, your work will directly impact the way patients and providers engage with AI in clinical and consumer health settings.

We’re looking for experienced engineers who are passionate about innovation, thrive in fast-paced environments, and are eager to apply their fullstack skills to solve real-world healthcare challenges with cutting-edge AI technologies.

What You'll Do

  • Design, build, and maintain scalable, secure B2B SaaS products using TypeScript/React, Material UI, and Python/Flask, with extensions into mobile (Flutter / React Native).

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with product, design, and clinical teams to translate requirements into elegant, user-focused solutions.

  • Architect reusable front- and back-end systems, ensuring high performance, reliability, and strong API integrations.

  • Own code quality through reviews, testing, and debugging—driving best practices and continuous improvement.

  • Stay current with emerging technologies and AI-driven workflows to enhance product capability and developer velocity.

What You Bring

Must Have:

  • 5+ years of full-stack development experience using TypeScript/React and Python, Ruby, or Node.js backends.

  • Strong background in RESTful API design, SQL/Postgres, and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, or Azure).

  • Proven ability to architect scalable systems and deliver high-quality, production-grade code.

  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills in fast-moving environments.

  • Familiarity with agile practices and modern DevOps tools (e.g., Terraform, CI/CD, monitoring).

Nice to Have:

  • Experience developing and publishing cross-platform mobile apps using Flutter, React Native, or native iOS/Android SDKs.

  • Hands-on experience building LLM-powered applications or integrating generative AI into production systems.

  • Familiarity with Flask backends and Terraform/AWS infrastructure

If you’re a full-stack engineer passionate about building AI-powered, user-facing experiences and ready to work on cutting-edge B2B products that make a real impact in healthcare, we’d love to hear from you.

Join us and help build the future of safe, life-changing AI in healthcare. There’s never been a more exciting moment to make an impact.
