**About Novoflow**
Novoflow is building AI Employees for medical clinics. We see two industry-breaking problems: over 400 EHRs, 1000s of vendors, and millions of patients all lacking interoperability across healthcare, and a trail of operational inefficiency following it. We’re building the scalable, reliable, and safe AI infrastructure that solves this problem.
With multi-year contracts secured and strong investor backing from YC advisors and top investors, we’re scaling our engineering fast to meet skyrocketing demand.
**Why Join Us?**
* Impact: Be a key contributor to cutting-edge projects, transforming industries.
* Growth: Thrive in a dynamic, high-ownership environment alongside top-tier talent.
* Innovation: Work with advanced tools and push technological boundaries.
* Autonomy: Drive your own initiatives and influence the company’s technical direction.
**About the Role**
We’re seeking an LLM engineer with hands-on experience in architecting strong prompting for agents. This role isn’t as much of a customer-by-customer prompt tuning, but rather building scalable AI infrastructure for our computer agents through context, prompting, and adjacent backend engineering. If you thrive in a fast-paced, high-ownership environment, we want to hear from you.
**What You’ll Do:**
* Design custom prompt frameworks for our various core infrastructure agents.
* Build smart context engineering. This will be a mix between backend work and smart system design.
* Realistically, anything that touches an LLM is in your realm of design. How can we tackle safety, reliability, and latency at scale..
* Technical Leadership: Drive technical decisions and architecture design, shaping the foundation of our solutions.
* Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with co-founders and other team members to translate business vision into actionable project plans.
* Ownership: Take full product ownership from ideation to launch, including integration into existing systems.
**Who You Are / Must-Haves:**
* Startup Experience: Strong preference for candidates with prior startup experience. Former founders are especially valued for their entrepreneurial mindset and problem-solving skills.
* Prior Experience:
* 2-10 years of hands-on general engineering + context engineering experience.
* Green Flag: Leading agent development at prev. high-impact startups/companies
* Educational Background: Ideally, candidates should have attended a college ranked in the top 50 in the United States.
* Backend Skills: Strong background in JS/Typescript and Python (we also build voice agents!)
* Frontend Skills: Proficiency in Next.js.
* Cloud Platforms: Familiarity with AWS and Postgres.
* Scalability: Familiarity with Docker is a big plus.
* Regulatory: Basic or professional experience with HIPAA is useful.
**Perks & Benefits**
* Competitive Compensation: Base salary plus equity
* Gym Membership
* Wellness allowance
* Full health, dental, and vision coverage
* Live with us in a dedicated 3,500 sq. ft. hackerhouse.
* A large snack supply
**Interview Process**
* Intro call w/ CTO (20 min)
* Live coding round w/ CTO (1 hr)
* Take-home assignment (2 hrs) + live review (15 min)
* Work trial (2-4 days) 😎
