About Us
We are on a mission to give patients the care they deserve by making it easy to navigate the healthcare system. Aviator aims to become the entry point into the healthcare system for every family. We are building a care coordination system driven by human healthcare experts and AI to help every patient access the necessary care to live a longer, healthier life.

About the Role
As an Agent Software Engineer, you’ll design and build intelligent software agents that automate clinical and operational workflows. These agents help clinicians focus on care, reduce administrative burden, and improve patient outcomes. You’ll work at the intersection of AI, automation, and healthcare delivery to craft systems that are safe, reliable, and impactful. This role is ideal for someone who thrives in a fast-moving startup environment and enjoys solving large and complex problems.
In this role, you will:
- Develop intelligent agent systems to automate clinical and operational workflows (e.g., scheduling, documentation, compliance).
- Build scalable backend services and APIs that integrate with EHRs, licensing systems, insurance platforms, and internal tools.
- Collaborate with product, clinical, and operations teams to translate real-world needs into elegant technical solutions.
- Implement monitoring, testing, and quality assurance to ensure agents behave safely and predictably.
- Continuously refine agent performance using data, feedback loops, and iterative experimentation.
- Contribute to architectural decisions and engineering best practices as the company grows.
Our commitment to you
- Company Equity: We are all owners and provide generous company equity.
- No BS: Nothing in your way to own your work. We are always honest with one another and act in the best interest of the company’s success, not individual feelings.
- Exponential Growth: Growth drives everything, including careers. Everyone at Aviator receives mentorship from our team investors, and advisors. You will have endless opportunities to drive incredible impact, flex diverse skillsets, and scale your career trajectory.
- Elite Team: Our team is composed of elite performers. We elevate and 10x each other to drive the greatest impact.
Qualifications and skills
- 3+ years of full-stack experience with a strength in backend systems (Python/TypeScript, Postgres, APIs/SDKs) and are comfortable jumping to frontend when needed.
- Familiarity with agent frameworks, automation tools, or AI-driven systems (LLM experience is a plus).
- Have shipped 0→1 products in a startup or fast-paced environment.
- Communicate clearly in writing: PR descriptions, docs, and Slack updates keep the team in sync.
- Enjoy building new tools, products spotting friction, and automating mundane tasks.
- Care about usability for non-technical users (our patients and advocates).
Core values
- Olympian’s Work Ethic: We bend the structures to transform health care. We work harder, longer, and smarter.
- Bias for Action: We have to shoot game shots to make game shots. From facing seemingly impossible challenges to an individual day’s work, we are always biased for action. We do the thing.
- No Ego: Everyone takes out the trash, metaphorically and literally. Everything we do is to move the company forward.
- Customer Obsession: ****We exist to make healthcare easier for patients and families. Every decision should improve this experience.
We are at a major inflection point in our healthcare system and aging population. It is rare to have the opportunity to change the world at scale, and even more rare to have a win-win-win model in healthcare. We have the opportunity to shape the future of healthcare in America. If this excites you, come build with us.
This is a high ownership, high agency role! Even if you don’t fit every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply.
