Senior Software Engineer

About The Role

Pine Park Health brings doctors and nurses to seniors where they live. We're backed by YC, First Round Capital, Gradient Ventures (Google), Averin Canvas, Foundation, Liquid 2, Box Group, and others, and we're based in the Bay Area.

What This Looks Like

The Senior Software Engineer role at Pine Park Health is 60% product and 40% engineering. So if you’re looking for a startup where you just write code, Pine Park Health is not the right fit. You’ll receive a key business problem to solve, with specific test criteria for whether that problem is solved. Then you’ll be responsible for owning that problem all the way through. That means spending time shadowing and interviewing doctors, nurses, medical assistants, and patients. It means documenting their work, understanding the key struggles and bottlenecks in it, and then suggesting ways software can help solve those problems. After that, you’ll need to design a solution that involves operations, including building new workflows, design, and of course engineering and code writing.

What We’re Looking For

• 8+ years of software engineering experience
• Deep full-stack fluency with modern web technologies (we use React, Remix, Node, TypeScript, Postgres, Prisma — depth of understanding matters more than framework-matching)
• You've built a personal AI development workflow — configured tooling, custom prompts, sharp instincts for where the models excel and where they'll confidently lead you wrong
• You function as a full owner: you scope the problem, manage the work, write the code, instrument the outcome, and close the loop. We don't have dedicated PMs on engineering projects.
• Especially Strong Fit: You've been a founding engineer, tech lead, or staff engineer — someone who set technical direction, made architectural calls without a playbook, and owned the consequences.
• This matters most to us. Startup experience where wearing many hats wasn't a novelty but a necessity — you've context-switched between product thinking, infrastructure, and stakeholder communication in the same week
• Healthcare technology, EHR integrations, or HIPAA-regulated environments
• Value-based care, Medicare, or clinical workflow automation experience
• Systems where correctness really mattered — finance, healthcare, infrastructure

Bonus Points

• If You Also Bring Depth In Mobile development (iOS/Android or React Native)
• Security engineering
• Product or design — if you've worn that hat before and liked it, this is a place where that matters
• Tech Stack: React, Remix, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Prisma ORM, Google Cloud Platform. AI tools: Cursor, Claude Code. HIPAA-compliant development environment

• Real impact: Your code directly affects the quality of care for seniors in 150+ communities
• Ownership culture: You own problems end-to-end and are trusted to make product decisions
• AI-native team: AI tools are central to how we work — your experience is what makes that output production-grade

• Y Combinator-backed Series B with a clear growth path
• Benefits Tailored For You And Your Family: Equity in a Y Combinator-backed Series B company with clear growth trajectory, comprehensive medical, vision, and dental insurance for you and your dependents, flexible spending accounts for health and dependent care expenses, 401(k) retirement plan to help secure your financial future, generous paid time off, professional development funding to advance your technical expertise and career goals, team building through regular social events and offsites

How To Apply

Send us a Cover Letter (required) about a system you built that you're proud of—not because it was technically clever, but because it held up over time, solved the right problem, and you made good tradeoff decisions along the way. Tell us how you'd approach it differently now. We care about your judgment, not your resume.
