Founding Product Engineer

**Planbase is building the AI-native operations layer that will power every modern clinic in the U.S.** * We’re already the operational backbone for **multiple healthcare organizations valued at over $1B.** * **5,000+ doctors delivering care to 100M+ patients** are scheduled weekly through Planbase. * **Customers love us.** Our top sales channel is unprompted referrals. We’re hiring founding product engineers to help build the infrastructure behind the next generation of B2B software. This is a high-ownership role: you’ll work directly with the founders to shape the product, the company, and the way healthcare and staffing operations are run. You’ll be among the first employees at an early-stage startup, which means challenge, uncertainty, and opportunity. This role isn’t for everyone — to be a good fit, you need to be hungry to move build, break and push boundaries. --- ### What you’ll do * Ship fast, talk to customers, and build AI-powered features and workflows. * Own product surfaces end-to-end — from backend logic and data models to frontend experience and UX details. * Partner closely with founders to make product trade-offs and shape what gets built next. * Help define engineering culture and grow the team. --- ### What kind of person we’re looking for * Strong product taste. * High-energy, opinionated, and fun to work with. * You must have experience building complex products to hit the ground running. * You’ve built real products for real customers, not just internal tools, integrations or side projects. * You move quickly but maintain a high bar for quality — and expect the same from those around you. * You want to help build not just a product, but a company and a category-defining business. * Visa required but open to O-1 visa sponsorship for exceptional candidates (e.g., top-20 university, publications, or press). **If applicable, please mention how you meet these O-1 criteria in your application.** --- ### Tech stack * **LLMs:** OpenAI, Anthropic * **ML:** LightGBM, Prophet * **Backend:** Python, Postgres * **Frontend:** React, TypeScript * **Infrastructure:** AWS Visa sponsorship is not available for this role.
