Full description
About the Role
Roger is an AI platform that frees home health clinicians from paperwork so they can focus on what matters: delivering life-changing care to our most vulnerable elderly patients in the comfort of their homes. Backed by leading healthcare investors like SignalFire, we've powered millions of visits, deployed to thousands of clinicians, and we're just getting started.
We are growing rapidly, backed by world-class investors, and shipping new capabilities into real clinical workflows every week. We are now looking for Software Engineers to scale the core services that power our platform and build entirely new Generative AI and LLM-driven workflows that clinicians will depend on every day.
If you want to solve meaningful engineering challenges, work with production LLMs, and build software that directly improves patient care, we would love to talk.
What You'll Do
- Build and ship backend services using FastAPI with MongoDB or Postgres
- Help build APIs and infrastructure that connect to LLMs and Generative AI models
- Use AI-assisted development tools to move faster while keeping quality high
- Turn early prototypes and MVPs into reliable, secure production systems, with guidance from senior engineers
- Contribute to better observability, testing, and code quality across our backend
- Deploy and run services with Docker and AWS
- Pair with senior engineers through code reviews, design discussions, and real production work
You Might Be a Good Fit If You Have
