Fullstack Developer (US)
Ketryx is an AI software platform that enables healthcare life sciences companies to ship life-saving regulated products in weeks instead of years. Our AI software removes compliance friction, dissolving the historical tradeoff between innovation and compliance, and enables regulated industries to innovate at the pace of modern software. Since launch, Ketryx already touches the lives of 100M patients and powers all of the world's top five medical device manufacturers. Backed by Lightspeed Ventures, our founders are the former Head of AI at Amgen and CTO of Wolfram Cloud.
