Description: Careforce AI is building autonomous AI agents that eliminate the manual administrative burden in healthcare (fax machines, scheduling, calling). We find, call, and schedule patients, breaking interoperability barriers that have plagued the industry for 40 years. We are a well-funded, YC-backed company with massive customer demand.
We are looking for a Senior Fullstack Engineer to be a foundational member of our small, ambitious team. You will have significant ownership working across the stack to build and scale the core of our AI agent platform. We are looking for builders with 5+ years of experience, preferably with an early-stage startup background (Pre-seed to Series A).
Kato is building a compliance-first AI servicing platform for the $24B lending market. While others treat regulatory guardrails as an afterthought, we’ve built a regulatory rules system with an AI decision engine on top. Our first product is a Voice AI agent currently handling loan servicing calls for major fintechs like Bilt Rewards and Parafin.
We are backed by Pear VC and angels from Brex, Bridge, and Square. You’ll be our second engineering hire, working directly with our CTO (ex-Google/Brex EM) and CEO (ex-Goldman/Brex).
The Role: As an early hire, you’ll own mission-critical projects across the entire stack. You’ll lead the architecture of our real-time voice processing system, optimize LLM integrations for compliance-aware conversations, and build out our customer-facing dashboards.
Tech Stack:
Backend: Golang, PostgreSQL
Frontend: Next.js, TypeScript, React, Tailwind
Infra: AWS, Terraform, Kubernetes, Docker
AI/ML: LLMs, Speech-to-Text, Text-to-Speech
Requirements:
2-5 years of production software experience.
Strong API design and architectural thinking.
An "owner's mindset"—we are a small, high-intensity team where everyone drives product direction.
Experience with WebRTC, real-time audio, or FinTech is a plus but not required.
Location: San Francisco (4 days/week in-person).

Mending is a team of healthcare nerds, software engineers, product designers, direct primary care doctors, health insurance experts, and more. We are building a healthcare system that makes sense, starting by redefining the role of health insurance – one that focuses on reducing friction for doctors and patients, and investing in ways to create more meaningful doctor-patient relationships.

We’re looking for a motivated and impact-oriented Product Engineer to join our small team of 5. Your primary focus will be building data pipelines and backend systems that automate and improve workflows for patients, providers, and internal operations.
You will be instrumental in ensuring seamless interactions from efficient patient support and operational workflows to reliable payment processing, which are powered by the robust systems you design and implement. As a key contributor, you will partner closely with internal stakeholders and external customers, translating insights into product requirements documents that directly drive your work.
Tech stack: Python (flask, temporal) on the backend, Nextjs/React on the frontend
Lantern is building AI-powered revenue intelligence—think autonomous agents that turn cold outreach into warm conversations. Our platform automatically detects buying signals across your tech stack [1], prioritizes opportunities, and helps B2B sales teams focus on deals that actually close.
We're an agentic-first startup building with Python, FastAPI, Next.js, and React, backed by a modern data stack (Postgres, ElasticSearch, ClickHouse, DuckDB). We deploy on Kubernetes/AWS and use Temporal.io for workflow orchestration.
We're hiring software engineers who want to work on cutting-edge AI and agentic systems. You'll translate complex customer needs into scalable architecture, optimize AI model efficiency through prompt engineering, and ship features that directly impact how revenue teams operate. We value ownership, bold ideas, and people who want to push boundaries.
This role is based in our Manhattan office (4 days/week in-person). We offer full health and dental coverage. Apply here: https://forms.gle/kEi5MDDiaJKdyN3fA
I'm Maksym. If you're excited about agentic AI and reshaping B2B sales, shoot me a note at maksym <at> withlantern.com.
Kinelo manages the new type of hybrid team that will emerge in the future: humans+AI working shoulder-to-“shoulder”.
Our first product helps human software engineering teams deliver more efficiently and more reliably by assisting in coordination and engineering management. But it’s built on a foundational layer that ingests data, knowledge, and process across communications and systems, exposing that to humans and AI alike.
Eventually, Kinelo will become a proper human+AI orchestration layer, managing entire companies, and our goal is to have Kinelo run Kinelo (we already dogfood it today).
We’re looking for high ownership individuals to join our small team and shape its direction. We also just opened a new SF office and new hires will have the ability to help shape company culture, engineering practices, architecture, and roadmap.
We’re well-funded (just raised another round), founded by a serial founder, anti-bureaucratic, and highly technical.
We’re looking for:
- Those who want to go 0 to 1 with high ownership: moving features and products from idea on a napkin, to prototype, to engineering UI, to shipped and polished product
- ~8 years professional experience, including the pre-LLM days with strong CS fundamentals
- A balance of wisdom from experience and optimism about the future
- Strong TypeScript and Postgres (or other RDBMS) experience at scale and with high reliability (SaaS apps, APIs, etc)
- Experience with a variety of technologies, including containerization, distributed systems, and at least one strongly typed programming language (Go, C++, Java, etc)
- Ideally experience with ML and AI systems (though expertise in ML, data science, etc is not needed for this role)
We can’t sponsor visas but relocation assistance to SF is possible.

We make robots that autonomously construct buildings. We are currently developing and manufacturing our autonomous bricklaying system in the beautiful centre of Amsterdam. And our robots are already earning real revenue operating on construction sites all over the Netherlands.
We're looking for experienced software engineers for PLATFORM and FULL STACK who can help us solve problems like:
- Data sync and analytics queries across a fleet of robots (that can be offline for hours at a time)
- Rapid deployment and iteration of experimental software changes across firmware, control software and UI
- Modelling buildings in code and finding the right UI for operators to edit them
Check out the progress we've already made on Atrium, our operating system for robotics: https://www.monumental.co/atrium
We're rapidly scaling up operations and we need experienced engineers who can build the systems that manage all of that complexity. If you think that 'full-stack' could reasonably mean debugging firmware, mixing buckets of mortar _and_ writing React components, we are looking for you. Robotics experience not required!
