Location: San Francisco, CA (Onsite – 5 days/week)
Compensation: $200,000 – $270,000 + Equity + Potential Sign-On Bonus
Type: Full-Time
About the Opportunity
Epic Placements is partnered with a venture-backed startup building AI-powered systems that support critical healthcare workflows across the country.
This team is focused on improving how providers navigate complex processes like prior authorizations, appeals, and patient interactions — ultimately helping people get access to life-saving care faster and with less friction.
They’re backed by top-tier investors (YC, General Catalyst, Conviction) and are already seeing strong traction:
-
20+ enterprise customers
-
Tracking toward $20M ARR
-
Proven founding team (successful exit + early engineering leadership at Hebbia)
This is an opportunity to join early and help shape both the product experience and frontend architecture at a company moving quickly.

Experience building or working with AI-driven or data-heavy applications

Background or interest in healthcare / health outcomes
Who You Are
