  • A rare neurological disorder is treatable and often curable. The problem is finding it. Current technology is the bottleneck.
We are building an AI-driven clinical decision-support system for a neurological condition that is frequently missed by standard testing, leaving patients without answers for years. The product combines patient-specific modeling, medical imaging, and patient-reported data to help patients understand their situation and clinicians decide what to investigate next.

  • Set the technical vision and architecture for the product
  • Build the first prototype hands-on, then hire and lead the engineering team

  • Strong Python experience
  • Has shipped software that handles PHI or other regulated data, and understands HIPAA controls in practiceA 0-to-1 builder: comfortable being the first engineer, then growing a team

  • PreferredHealthcare experience
  • Physiological or physics-based simulation (experience with SciPy compartment models, FEniCS, OpenFOAM or similar)
  • Structured data extraction
  • Software as a Medical Device, FDA, or IRB-reviewed research experience
What we offer:
  • Co-founder equity with standard vesting, and the CTO title
  • Build with bleeding-edge tools from day one
  • Ownership of the technical vision from the first line of code
  • A founder who brings patient community access, go-to-market and media visibility, so you can focus on the build
  • Work that could change how hard-to-diagnose patients are finally diagnosed and treated
