ClarityCare AI is building AI infrastructure for healthcare utilization management and prior authorization workflows. Their AI agents process clinical documents, reason over medical criteria, and automate authorization decisions in real time — reducing processing timelines from days to minutes.
The company launched commercially in 2025 and rapidly scaled to seven-figure ARR within months. The founding team includes engineers and researchers from MIT, Apple, Google, and OpenAI-backed startups.
About the RoleClarityCare AI is hiring Forward Deployed Engineers to own customer deployments and technical relationships end-to-end. Unlike traditional FDE organizations, all engineers are both customer-facing and deeply technical — owning frontend, backend, infrastructure, and AI systems simultaneously. The role blends full-stack engineering, deployment ownership, AI infrastructure, customer communication, and production debugging in live healthcare environments.
What You'll Own- Own customer relationships from pre-sale through deployment and ongoing support
- Define and document project scope directly with customers
- Deploy AI agents into customer environments and iterate on production feedback
- Own portions of backend, frontend, or AI infrastructure systems
- Debug and resolve live customer production issues
- Collaborate with engineering teams on architecture and customer-driven product direction
- Serve as the primary technical point of contact for assigned accounts
- 1–5 years of full-stack engineering experience
- Strong frontend, backend, and AI systems engineering ability
- Comfortable speaking directly with customers and stakeholders
- Able to define scope of work in ambiguous customer conversations
- Self-sufficient with strong ownership mentality
- Based in San Francisco or willing to relocate onsite
- Prior Forward Deployed Engineer or Solutions Engineer experience
- Healthcare or healthtech background
- AI agent or LLM product experience
- Startup or founding engineer background
- React and TypeScript frontend expertise
- Backend-only engineers without customer communication skills
- Customer success backgrounds lacking engineering depth
- Large enterprise engineers without startup adaptability
- Engineers uncomfortable owning customer-facing production problems
- Initial Technical Screening
- Live Coding Challenge
- Live System Design Challenge
- Cultural Fit Interview
- Onsite Trial
- Offer Stage
- Role is fully onsite in San Francisco — please only apply if you can commit to this
- H-1B and O-1 visa sponsorship available
Shortlisted candidates will be contacted by David Joseph & Co. , the recruiting partner managing this search on behalf of ClarityCare AI.
