Job description
🚀 Hiring: Forward Deployed Engineer | Healthcare AI Build AI agents deployed inside major health systems, working directly with physicians and hospital teams. Join a Series B healthcare AI startup operating across 6M patient records, with reported 30× revenue growth last year.
This is a founding-level opportunity with ownership from customer discovery through production deployment. 📍 North Beach, San Francisco 🏢 Hybrid — 4 days in office 💰 $180K–$285K + equity 👥 5 openings | Full-time OPT, H-1B transfers, and TN supported What you’ll do
- Partner with physicians, hospital IT teams, and clinical champions to understand workflows.
- Turn ambiguous clinical problems into production-ready AI agents.
- Build, evaluate, and deploy agents end-to-end on the Carebricks platform.
- Monitor deployments and improve agents using clinical guidelines and operational feedback.
- Own the feedback loop from a physician identifying a problem to shipping a production fix, potentially within days.
What you’ll bring
- Typically 3–6 years in full-stack, forward deployed, or similar engineering roles. Exceptional candidates with 2–3 years may also be considered.
- Strong Python backend development and React/TypeScript frontend experience.
- A BS/MS in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or another STEM field.
- Meaningful ownership of production software development and deployment.
- At least one standout signal: strong CS/STEM academics, rapid promotions, a founding or early engineering role at a recognizable startup, experience at a high-bar engineering organization, or FDE experience at companies such as Palantir or Scale AI.
Helpful experience: Rust, Kubernetes/Helm, AWS, LLMs and AI agents, EHR integrations/FHIR, healthcare or health tech, and early-stage VC-backed startups. Background fit For early-career candidates, strong signals include high-growth startup experience, FDE experience, or exceptional academics.
For more experienced candidates, Big Tech combined with startup, FDE, or customer-facing deployment experience is particularly relevant.
Pure Big Tech experience without startup or customer deployment exposure, multiple startup/founding roles lasting under approximately one year each, or limited production engineering ownership would not align with the target profile. 📩 Interested?
Send your resume and highlight your production ownership, Python/React experience, and any startup, customer deployment, or AI work.
Visa sponsorship record
No public sponsorship records foundWe didn't find H-1B, H-1B1, E-3 or green card (PERM) filings under the name MeeBoss in the Department of Labor and USCIS data. That doesn't mean the job can't be sponsored — the company may file under a different legal name, be new to sponsorship, or sponsor a visa that isn't in these datasets (for example H-2B or J-1).
Tip: ask the recruiter early, in writing, which visa they sponsor and whether they cover the legal and filing fees.
Which visas can work for this job
Occupation: Software Developers (SOC 15-1252).
- Mentioned in the listing
H-1B, OPT
- H-1B cap-exempt employer
Regular cap-subject employer — a new H-1B needs to win the lottery in March (unless you already hold cap-counted H-1B status).
- TN (citizens of Canada and Mexico)
This kind of role may fit the USMCA profession “Computer Systems Analyst (or Engineer, for engineering-degree holders)” — it depends on the actual duties. No lottery, no cap; you need the matching degree or license.
- E-3 (Australia) and H-1B1 (Chile, Singapore)
Same degree requirement as H-1B, but no lottery and a separate quota that is rarely filled.
- O-1 (extraordinary ability)
For candidates with awards, publications, press, a high salary or critical roles at distinguished organizations. No cap, no lottery; the employer files a petition.
- STEM OPT extension (F-1 students)
Requires an E-Verify employer. We didn't find this company in the E-Verify list — ask HR.
Salary vs prevailing wage
Level II (qualified)Software Developers · San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA. Annual prevailing wages set by the Department of Labor (OFLC).
| Level | Prevailing wage | H-1B lottery odds* |
|---|---|---|
| Level I | $137,093 | ~15% |
| Level II | $165,131 | ~31% |
| Level III | $193,149 | ~46% |
| Level IV | $221,187 | ~61% |
This job pays $180,000–$285,000 a year — that's Level II (qualified). In the wage-weighted H-1B lottery a Level II registration gets 2 entries; estimated selection chance about 31%.
* Odds are DHS projections for the FY2027 wage-weighted lottery (actual results vary by year and employer). Since the FY2027 cap season the H-1B lottery is weighted by wage level: Level I = 1 entry, II = 2, III = 3, IV = 4. The level is set by the offered wage against the prevailing wage for the occupation and worksite. Separately, a $100,000 fee for new H-1B petitions for workers outside the US was announced in 2025; as of September 2026 a federal court ruling keeps it unenforceable while appeals continue — check the current status.
