The Opportunity
Most startups burn cash to find a market, at Symmetric, we've spent the last few years winning it. We've been profitable from Year 1, remain employee-owned and doubled in 2025 with line of sight to repeat that growth in 2026.
Our product is the data engine behind the world's most sophisticated healthcare systems — 17 of the Gartner Top 25 supply chains already rely on Symmetric. We provide cutting-edge solutions that streamline procurement, item master data management, and improve efficiency across healthcare systems.
We have a fully remote team that's making a big impact on the healthcare supply chain by working closely with enterprises (health systems, hospitals, consulting firms, etc.), regulatory agencies and industry groups.

You will also play a central role in embedding Agentic AI automations into our product, and in building the monitoring and auditing capabilities that give our customers confidence in the integrity of their data. This is a high-impact individual contributor role for someone who enjoys shipping polished application features, solving complex product problems, and working across the stack to deliver durable, scalable software.
Key Responsibilities
Application Development & Workflows
- Design and develop workflows within the web application that enable customers to efficiently manage procurement, item master data, and supply chain operations.
- Build full stack features spanning Python and SQL on the backend, TypeScript and React on the frontend, with selective use of Rust for performance-critical components.
- Translate ambiguous product requirements into clean, maintainable software that balances short-term delivery with long-term extensibility.
Agentic AI & Automation
- Implement Agentic AI automations that reduce manual work for our customers and unlock new product capabilities across the platform.
- Partner with Product and Engineering leadership to identify high-leverage opportunities for AI-driven workflows and prototype, evaluate, and productionize them.
