We radically increase access and improve quality of care by combining AI agents with clinical experts to take on high-impact clinical operations and care management activities for healthcare organizations. We’re based in NYC, are growing rapidly, and are backed by significant venture funding from leading healthtech investors. ## About the role A Thesis Forward Deployed Engineer designs how our product integrates into each customer’s stack, and gives our Delivery team the technical firepower to move fast without stalling on engineering. This is a client-facing, hands-on role for someone who can reason about systems they don’t own, translate fluidly between technical and business audiences, and carry ownership from pre-sales through implementation handoff. You’ll partner closely with our Tech Leads, Delivery team, and customers, and you’ll be a key technical voice in the room on every deal. ## Responsibilities - Client-facing technical solution design: Design how our product integrates into each customer’s existing stack, accounting for APIs, data flows, auth, and infrastructure, and explain that solution back to the buyer in terms they care about. - Technical support for Delivery: Be the technical expert our Delivery team relies on throughout implementation, resolving customer and internal questions on integration, architecture, and data so delivery keeps moving instead of waiting on engineering. - Work breakdown for aligned scope: Once scope is aligned, partner with Tech Leads to turn it into a consolidated plan, surfacing dependencies before the build starts rather than during it. - POC and pilot scoping: Scope and run proofs-of-concept and pilots so they validate the right things, close the deal, and set up a clean path to full implementation. - Handoff and enablement: Leave both the customer’s team and our internal teams with documentation and technical context they can actually use after you step out of the day-to-day. We expect you to have - A proven professional pedigree: You bring 4–6 years of experience, preferably with time spent at a high-growth, early-stage company where you've shipped in ambiguous, fast-moving conditions. - Hands-on technical ability: Enough engineering chops to build demos, write integration code, and debug live without escalating everything. - Systems and architecture fluency: A solid grasp of our product architecture and the ability to reason about a customer’s stack (APIs, data flows, auth, infrastructure), including systems you don’t own. - Technical-to-business translation: The ability to turn a customer’s business problem into a technical solution, explain it back in terms the buyer cares about, and cut the details that don’t matter to the audience in front of you. - Discovery and scoping: Sharp questions that surface real requirements versus stated ones, and the judgment to scope POCs that prove the right thing and spot deals that won’t work technically before weeks get sunk. - Customer and sales instinct: The ability to read a room and adjust depth on the fly, handle objections honestly (including “we don’t do that today”) without killing the deal, and know when to push technical validation versus get out of the way. - Communication and presence: Clear written and verbal communication, demos that tell a story rather than click through screens, and calm credibility when something breaks mid-demo. - Healthcare fluency: Comfort with compliance and security topics (HIPAA, data handling, audit requirements) that surface in nearly every deal, and the ability to speak credibly to clinical and operational stakeholders, not just IT. - Ownership and range: Curiosity and a fast ramp on unfamiliar tech, comfort with ambiguity, and ownership across the full pre-sales-to-handoff arc rather than throwing things over the wall. Target Compensation for this role is 200-250K, plus equity and a generous benefits package. Thesis Care is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status. ## About Thesis ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Thesis combines AI agents with expert clinicians to automate clinical support tasks at scale, aiming to add clinical capacity for healthcare organizations. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series A, $60M total funding) - **Headquarters**: New York, New York, United States - **Founded**: 2024 - **Founders**: Niren Gandra, M.D. (CEO) and Aditya Pandyaram (CPO & Co-Founder) ## Core Business - Primary industry/industries: Healthcare AI, Clinical Operations, Care Management - Target customers: Physician groups, health systems, health plan care teams (B2B Enterprise) - Mission or purpose statement: “Add clinical capacity at scale” — using AI agents with expert clinicians to perform complex clinical work end-to-end. ## Products & Services - **Care Management Agents**: Identify and engage patients to close care gaps and improve quality measures. - **Clinical Operations Agents**: Reduce operational friction (e.g., prior authorizations) so clinical teams focus on care, not paperwork. - **Care Delivery Agents**: Extend frontline capacity with clinical support that complements existing teams. - **Platform**: One integration supports multiple agents; works with existing EHR and operational systems; provides full traceability and expert-in-the-loop oversight. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not disclosed - **Key Metric**: $60M total funding — $15M Seed (April 2024) + $45M Series A (March 2026) - **Notable Investors/Partners**: Oak HC/FT (lead in both rounds), CRV, Black Opal Ventures; partner includes Unio Health Partners (California multi-specialty platform). - **Growth Signals**: 28 employees (+116.7% YoY), 5 active job postings, partnership with Unio Health Partners covering 500K+ patients across 52 locations, commercial traction noted by CEO. ## Competitive Advantages - **Expert-in-the-loop model**: Every AI agent is paired with a human clinician (nurse or care manager) who handles edge cases, escalations, and oversight — a moat that pure automation cannot replicate. - **Autopilot, not copilot**: Agents deliver completed outcomes end-to-end; staff don’t need to learn new tools. - **Enterprise-grade compliance**: HIPAA SOC 2 Type II, role-based access, full audit trail and traceability by design. - **Works with existing systems**: Integrates with current EHR and operational infrastructure without workflow disruption. ## Strategic Focus - **Commercial expansion**: Scaling across primary and specialty care providers nationwide. - **Technology platform enhancement**: Deepening AI capabilities and expanding the suite of care team agents. - **Headcount growth**: Especially engineering, product, and clinical operations roles to support customer demand. ## Why Work Here - **Culture**: Early-stage (Series A), mission-driven “clinical capacity” startup with a small, growing team (~28 people). High ownership and impact. - **Remote/hybrid/office**: Roles listed in New York, NY; likely hybrid or in-office near Madison Ave HQ. - **Notable perks/engineering culture**: “Level-up your career” messaging on careers page; opportunities to work on AI/ML and full-stack product engineering in a regulated healthcare environment with real clinical impact. Current open roles include Lead Security Engineer, Staff Software Engineer (AI Developer Experience), Data Engineer, Product Lead, and GM of Clinical Operations. ## Sources 1.
