Founding Engineer (AI / Product)

San Francisco, USA (Remote-Flexible with SF Presence)

$170,000 - $250,000 + Equity

Revive Recruitment are proud to be partnered with a stealth-mode AI start-up transforming how healthcare providers in the US operate through next-generation, multi-modal AI agents.

Backed by $5M in seed funding and already working with large enterprise customers in the healthcare sector, this business is building a platform that automates complex workflows across voice, browser, and API-driven systems.

This is a founding engineer opportunity, offering true ownership, fast progression, and the chance to build at the forefront of applied AI.

What You'll Do
• Build and ship multi-modal AI agents across browser, voice, text, and API integrations
• Work directly with enterprise customers to understand workflows and deliver real-world impact
• Design and implement evaluation frameworks to measure and improve agent performance
• Build core infrastructure including orchestration, memory, and reasoning layers
• Own product features end-to-end, from concept through to deployment
• Contribute to platform strategy, identifying patterns across customers and scaling solutions
What You'll Have
• 1-4 years experience as a Product / Full Stack Engineer
• Strong coding ability in Python, TypeScript, or Go
• Experience shipping products or features end-to-end with real user impact
• Background in high-growth startups or strong brand-name environments
• Exposure to AI, LLMs, or agent-based systems (preferred but not essential)
• Strong ownership mindset, proactive, ambitious, and product-focused

What's In It For You
• $170,000 - $250,000 base salary + meaningful early-stage equity
• Founding-level role with clear progression into senior/lead positions
• Opportunity to work on real-world AI applications with immediate enterprise impact
• Small, high-performing team with strong technical and domain expertise
• Remote flexibility with SF presence
• Relocation support available

The Opportunity This is a rare chance to join a company at seed stage with real enterprise traction, building AI systems that automate complex, high-value workflows in healthcare. Ideal for engineers looking to take ownership, move fast, and grow into leadership roles.
