About Our Client

Our client has built a leading AI-powered clinical documentation platform for home health, used daily by thousands of clinicians and reducing documentation time by 80%+.

• Build APIs and infrastructure that interface with LLMs and Generative AI models
• Leverage AI-assisted development tools (e.g., ChatGPT/Copilot-style tooling) to increase engineering velocity without sacrificing quality
• Prototype MVPs quickly, then harden them into secure, scalable, reliable production systems
• Improve backend architecture, observability, and code quality standards
• Deploy and operate services using Docker and AWS
• Collaborate with senior engineers and mentor junior developers as the team scales
