Senior Software Engineer, Platform | Remote
Olli Health is a Series A funded healthtech startup modernizing home healthcare with advanced AI tools, and we are growing. We're looking for a creative, low-ego, collaborative, startup-native engineer energized by challenging, nuanced problems with the potential to have a massive impact.
The Senior Software Engineer on Platform will be the senior-most engineer on the team building our platform: the web application home health agencies use to run several business-critical clinical documentation and back office workflows. You'll work closely with our first PM, the VP of Engineering, and a talented group of earlier-career engineers. This is a hands-on full-stack role with real leadership weight: mentoring teammates, contributing to architecture decisions, owning key repositories, and shipping the work that matters most to customers.
Key Responsibilities:
Ship features end-to-end across the full stack: design, requirements gathering, building, testing, deploying.
Contribute to architecture and technical-direction decisions as the platform grows from where it is today to where it needs to be next.
Mentor and grow the engineers around you through code review, pairing, and the day-to-day craft of writing clear, maintainable code.
Set the bar on quality: testing, observability, performance, and the things that make a codebase pleasant to work in two years from now.
Work directly with our customers and internal users to identify opportunities, sharpen workflows, and observe our work in daily use.
Help shape engineering practices on a small team still figuring out what to formalize and what to leave loose.
Requirements:
Full-stack experience: 5+ years of experience working with Python and a modern web framework (FastAPI, Django, or Flask), production React, and PostgreSQL. Comfortable designing APIs, modeling data, and reasoning about performance. AWS experience required.
Strong fundamentals: Data structures, algorithms, database design, and API design. Fluent building everything from REST APIs to heavy chained workflows in Python.
Hands-on-keyboard senior: Prior experience as the senior IC or tech lead on a small team. You're writing code as an IC from the first week, with expectation to grow into team leadership.
Mentorship instinct: You enjoy lifting up the engineers around you. Code review feels like collaboration, and opportunities to share your experience with others.
Startup mentality: An enjoyment of that early startup balance between efficiency, scalability, and shipping fast to meet customer needs.
Flexible problem solving: Equally interested in deep-diving a tricky bug, debating architecture, or shipping the unglamorous fix the customer needs Monday, and wise enough to know which is highest leverage in the moment.
Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the US (no visa sponsorship available).
Desirable Skills (Bonuses):
Proven success in the Seed/Series A stage fast-paced startups.
Experience with our stack: PostgreSQL, Redis, Python, FastAPI, React.
Comfort interacting with ML/NLP and LLM-native data engineering problems.
Experience working with healthcare datasets (e.g. payer claims data, clinical notes, EHR charts, ICD-10 coding, etc.).
Experience building secure systems with HIPAA compliance as a core principle.
Prior experience as the senior-most engineer on a small team, especially one that grew under your watch.
An appreciation for the challenges of building with LMs (healthy skepticism a must).
At Olli we value a growth mindset and problem-solving skills as much as specific tool proficiency and years of experience. If you have a solid foundation in engineering principles and are eager to learn, we want to hear from you.
What We Offer:
A key early engineering FT role with equity vesting options and real influence on the platform's technical direction.
A chance to be at the forefront of healthtech innovation, building real AI tools that meet compliance standards while solving real problems (we don't build marketing gimmicks).
A collaborative and inclusive work environment that prioritizes debate, ethical decision-making, and is allergic to inflated egos.
Flexible remote work environment with travel to quarterly team onsite meetings.
Opportunities for professional growth and leadership.
Compensation Range: $160k - $190k annual FTE base comp + equity options
Benefits: 100% coverage of Health, Vision, Dental, and Life insurance premiums; unlimited PTO; 401K plan; individual budget for your preferred laptop and monitor setup; fully remote; great colleagues working on a challenging problem for meaningful customers (older adults).
