Software Engineer

Brighterway is a VC-backed startup (Y Combinator S24) building AI-powered medical record review tools for the workers’ compensation ecosystem. We process 10M+ pages of medical records per month and are growing rapidly across national claims organizations.

We're hiring a full-stack generalist who loves building fast. Someone who can take ambiguous customer problems, propose a solution, and ship a working prototype in days.

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys founder-style autonomy, talking to customers, and owning features end-to-end. You’ll work directly with the CEO and CTO to define, build, and iterate on high-impact product lines.

What You’ll Do

• Join live calls with founders, clients, and partners to understand needs in real time.
• Build 0→1 prototypes, workflows, integrations, and internal tools extremely quickly.
• Own full-stack development across backend, APIs, data pipelines, and lightweight UIs.
• Debug production issues, unblock product teams, and ensure delivery to key clients.
• Collaborate across ML, FE, and operations to ship experiments and new product lines.
• Create scaffolding that the rest of the engineering team can harden later.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong full-stack experience (Python, Node, etc.)
• Demonstrated ability to build end-to-end features independently
• Bias toward action: prototype first, perfect later
• Strong debugging + problem-solving skills
• Comfort talking to customers, founders, and non-technical stakeholders
• Startup DNA: scrappy, adaptable, and solutions-focused

Nice to Have

• Experience in health tech, ML tooling, document processing, or claims systems
• Experience with AWS, GCP, or cloud infra
• Prior early-stage startup experience or founding experience

Why Brighterway

• Work directly with founders on high-impact product lines
• Ship fast and see your work used by national claims organizations
• Competitive salary + meaningful equity
• Fast-moving, execution-oriented environment
