Senior Software Engineer (AI)
Heidi Health
Who are Heidi?
Heidi is on a mission to halve the time it takes to deliver world-class care.
We believe that by 2050, every clinician will practice with AI systems that free them from administrative burdens and increase the quality and accessibility of care to patients across the world.
Built for clinicians, by clinicians, at the core of Heidi is its people. We are an eclectic bunch of inventors, builders, scientists, nurses, doctors, mathematicians, designers, creatives, and high-agency executors.
We achieve in 6 months what it takes our competitors 4 years to do. In just 12 months, 20 million patient consults were supported by Heidi, and we’re now powering more than 1 million consults every week.
With our most recent $16.6MM round of funding from leading VC firms, we’re geared up to supercharge our ambitious global growth, starting with the US, Canada, UK and Europe - and we need great people like you to get there. Ready for the challenge?
The Role
Working closely with our Engineering Manager - Agents and Automations, you’ll be a Senior/Intermediate AI Engineer who builds production-ready, LLM-powered automations that eliminate clinician admin and scale across millions of patient interactions.
What you’ll do:
Build & ship LLM-powered agents that automate clinical conversations (outbound, inbound, and follow-up).
Enable AI Agents to securely interface with EHRs and other health systems to augment their capabilities and context
Keep them fast, safe and cheap – optimise latency, observability, security and cost from prototype to GA.
Own quality – author tests, alerts and on-call runbooks so clinicians can trust every interaction.
Pair with product & design to get features from idea to production in weeks, not quarters.
What we will look for:
You’ve delivered an AI/ML or LLM product to real users.
You write clean, reliable software (Python or TypeScript) and know your way around cloud infra (GCP or AWS).
You understand the theory and practice behind prompt engineering, vector search or machine learning
Bonus: PhD or Masters in an AI related field
Attitude is more important than experience so if you are a hungry, competitive and highly motivated operator who has a knack for problem solving and building relationships, we want to hear from you.
What do we believe in?
We create unconventional solutions to difficult problems and we build them fast. We want you to set impossible goals and make them happen, think landing a rocket but the medical version.
