Hike Medical | Boston (ONSITE) | Senior+ Software Engineer

Hike Medical is reinventing musculoskeletal care, starting with feet. Our proprietary AI-vision platform turns a 30 second web based (yes, no sensors) foot scan into precision engineered, 3D-printed insoles that prevent pain before it starts. We're already protecting on-their-feet workforces at Fortune 50 leaders, major health systems, and middle America manufacturers. Fresh off a stealthy round with top tier VCs, we run a fast, no BS, execution first culture out of Boston’s Seaport as we sprint toward $100M ARR and standing with 10M Americans as they step into their shoes daily.

As a Senior Software Engineer, you’ll build and ship the core systems behind Hike’s AI healthcare platform. As the backbone of Hike's high-growth, mission-driven platform, you’ll design scalable services, implement production AI, and deliver user experiences that improve patient outcomes. From day one, you’ll have real autonomy and clear impact on transforming the US healthcare system.

* Architect, build, and optimize high-performance, scalable systems that power AI-driven solutions.

* Design resilient, serverless architectures in a TypeScript and AWS environment.

* Develop developer-friendly APIs and SDKs that enable seamless integration across platforms.

* Thrives in Collaboration – You push back, ask tough questions, and elevate the team.

* Driven to Ship – You want full control over your work, from architecture to deployment, and you’re eager to move fast.

Careful with this

I applied and got rejected without feedback. They stated that there was a high volume of strong applicants (if there were, why are they posting again?)

This is the case for the vast majority of companies posting jobs here and elsewhere (e.g., LinkedIn) right now. I've been looking for the past 7 months after a lay-off and that exact reply is the most common response I've seen (because it's an automated response). Well, most common after not hearing back at all, of course.

We detached this subthread from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46858512. Please see the rules at the top of the thread.

I know situations like this are frustrating and the job market in general has a lot of issues, but Who Is Hiring threads aren't a great place to prosecute these topics.

There are links to a lot of past explanations here, in case helpful: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45094555.
