ABOUT CLAIM HEALTH

Claim Health is the AI Revenue Platform for Post-Acute Care.

With the US population aging and preference for care moving to the home, post-acute care (home health, skilled nursing, home care, hospice) is one of the fastest growing verticals within healthcare. Post-acute providers operate across fragmented systems, manual workflows, and reactive processes that create operational drag and financial uncertainty. Claim Health replaces this fragmentation with an intelligent, software-driven platform that unifies data, automates execution, and enables real-time decision-making across revenue-critical operations.

We’re building an adaptive platform that brings clarity, predictability, and scale to environments where reliability matters.

THE ROLE

We’re looking for a Full Stack Engineer to help build and scale the core Claim Health platform. We don’t believe that frontend, backend, or infra engineers alone will succeed at Claim Health and push our mission forward. You will work directly with customers and all across the stack to design systems that coordinate complex intake & authorization workflows, surface real-time signals, and automate high-stakes operational processes. This role has significant ownership and influence over how the platform evolves.

You won’t just ship features - you’ll help define the foundational systems that power the product and deliver end-to-end workflow automation for our partners.

How Claim Health Engineering Works

  • Build and ship end-to-end product capabilities across the stack
  • Have direct conversations with customers and be your own PM
  • Dig into disconnected and messy data to create abstractions that allow for operational scale and data intelligence.
  • Develop automation and orchestration layers for complex, real-world workflows
  • Create internal tools and user-facing interfaces that drive clarity and control
  • Design for correctness, observability, and resilience in mission-critical revenue and operational systems in large healthcare systems
  • Partner closely with GTM at Claim Health and customers to translate ambiguity into durable solutions

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

We care more about how you think and operate than specific tools or frameworks.

You likely have:

  • 3+ years of experience building full-stack products in production
  • Strong backend fundamentals
  • Comfort working across frontend, backend, and infrastructure
  • Experience deconstructing real-life workflow complexity into automation

You thrive if you:

  • Enjoy working on systems with messy real-world constraints
  • Care deeply about reliability, edge cases, and long-term quality
  • Prefer solving root problems over patching symptoms
  • Are comfortable operating with ambiguity and high ownership
  • Want to build foundational systems, not one-off features
  • Care about healthcare and improving outcomes for patients

Bonus (Not Required)

  • Background in agent automation, orchestration, or integration platforms
  • Experience deploying AI-powered systems in production
  • Prior exposure to healthcare, finance, or operationally complex domains

WHY JOIN CLAIM HEALTH

  • Real impact: Your work affects mission-critical operations and financial outcomes
  • Ownership: Meaningful equity and influence over the platform’s direction
  • Hard problems: Complex systems, real constraints, no toy use cases
  • Speed: Small team, fast feedback loops, high leverage work. We have a bias towards moving as fast as possible.
  • Culture: Low ego, high standards, deep respect for craft
  • Fun One of the most important things we screen for is can you laugh with us.

Why work at Claim Health

  • Mission‑driven: The company is building critical infrastructure for an underserved but vital part of healthcare — home‑based care
  • Early‑stage impact: With only 6–9 people (YC batch size), new hires can shape product, culture, and engineering decisions from the ground up
  • Location & flexibility: Based in New York, NY; job postings mention New York City and “any (new grads ok)” — likely hybrid or in‑office with some flexibility
  • Engineering culture: Co‑founder Jayen Ram is a 4‑time startup engineer; the team values removing burden from healthcare workers through smart automation
  • Open roles (as of mid‑2026): Full Stack Engineer, Deployment Specialist, Operations Associate, Visual Design Intern, Content Marketing Intern — offering roles across engineering, operations, and design
  • Compensation: YC job listings indicate $150K–$220K for senior engineering and $70K–$100K for early‑career roles; equity likely included but not specified
