Senior AI Engineer Doctronic | New York City ONSITE (Hybrid) | Reports to CEO The Mission Let's make healthcare free and accessible to everyone through AI. We're building an AI doctor that already handles millions of consultations - our goal is to scale this to billions while maintaining medical safety and accuracy. What You'll Build Core AI Systems
Multi-agent consensus architectures where specialized models debate cases before conclusions
RAG pipelines processing thousands of clinical guidelines built for LLM consumption
Fine tuning and model distillation to support efficient performance
Real-time inference systems handling millions of medical consultations each month
Custom workflows for domain-specific medical reasoning
Clinical Data Infrastructure
NLP pipelines extracting structured data from patient conversations (HIPAA-compliant)
QHIN integrations for automated EHR data retrieval and reconciliation
Intelligent triage systems routing between AI and human providers
Documentation generation matching provider-specific protocols
Safety & Scale
Emergency detection with sub-second escalation to human oversight
Validation layers ensuring 99%+ treatment plan accuracy
Distributed systems handling rapid growth and peak loads
Fail-safe mechanisms for critical path decisions in regulated environments
You'll also work on voice/video AI interfaces, multilingual medical NLP, predictive health modeling, and infrastructure for the next billion patient interactions. How We Work
Engineering-first org: no project managers, just senior engineers
Flat structure with direct CEO reporting and high autonomy
Own features end-to-end from minimal specs to production
AI coding tools encouraged
Ship fast with good judgment; daily standups for alignment, not micromanagement
