Senior Software Engineer

Hike MedicalHike Medical is building the defining company in musculoskeletal care. We sit at the intersection of AI, robotics, and healthcare, across three product lines: a proprietary AI-vision platform that turns a 30 second web-based foot scan into custom 3D-printed orthotics; an AI agent platform that automates the entire DME workflow from pre-visit processing to claims and revenue cycle; and SoleForge, our vertically integrated 3D printing factory producing custom medical devices at a scale the industry has never seen.Our customers are both the largest employers on earth and the biggest companies in orthotics and prosthetics. On the clinical side, we are live across the industry's largest national providers. On the employer side, Fortune 50 companies trust us to protect their on-their-feet workforces.Custom insoles are just the wedge. Our long-term vision is bionics: AI-designed, robotically manufactured orthotic and prosthetic devices at scale, replacing a fragmented, manual industry that has not changed in decades. Insoles today, full DME tomorrow, bionics by 2040.
