Location: New York City (Hybrid, 3 days in office per week)
Kinstead is building the AI-native operating system for independent healthcare, enabling nurse practitioners to launch and run their own clinics. We replace the fragmented, manual infrastructure behind healthcare with a single, intelligent system so clinicians can spend their time on care, not paperwork.
This creates a new model of care, one where clinicians practice on their terms and patients get consistent, community-rooted care. We’re backed by Wisdom Ventures and founders and executives from Pomelo Care, Flatiron Health, Roivant, and PathAI on our mission to deliver better care.
About the Role We’re hiring a senior backend engineer to build and own core backend systems and application logic.
You’ll design and build the services that power reliable clinical and operational workflows, including APIs, background processing, and system behavior under real-world conditions. This role focuses on reliability, correctness, and predictable execution as the product grows.
You do not need prior healthcare or FHIR experience. We care more about strong backend fundamentals, sound engineering judgment, and the ability to ramp quickly on a complex domain.
You’ll work closely with the CTO on system design while maintaining ownership of implementation and operational correctness.
How We Work We use tools such as Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Codex heavily throughout development. They are a normal part of how we move quickly on implementation, exploration, and iteration.
Engineers are responsible for what ships. We expect people to understand system behavior, review generated code carefully, debug failures, and maintain a high bar for reliability, security, and production quality.
We look for engineers who use AI for leverage while still owning their code end-to-end. We review meaningful changes together as a team so everyone maintains context on how the system works end-to-end.
What You’ll Do
Design and implement backend workflows and application logic
Build and maintain APIs that power product functionality
Implement scheduling, encounter, and operational workflows
Build AI-powered tools that help clinicians with documentation, clinical decision support, and voice-driven workflows
Integrate with clinical systems using FHIR
Debug and resolve production issues across the stack
Ensure system behavior remains predictable under failure conditions
Collaborate with frontend engineers to maintain clear API contracts
Use AI development tools to accelerate implementation while maintaining reliability
Participate in system design and technical planning
Our Stack Python (Django, async-first with django-ninja and Channels), Next.js, PostgreSQL (with pgvector), Redis, WebSockets, asynchronous background jobs, workflow state machines, and clinical integrations using Medplum and FHIR.
Our services run on AWS and Kubernetes, and we rely on Terraform for IaC and Datadog for APM and infrastructure monitoring.
We maintain automated testing and deployment pipelines using Github Actions and integrate with AI providers including Google (Vertex AI), Anthropic (AWS Bedrock), and OpenAI.
What Success Looks Like
Workflows behave reliably in production
System behavior remains predictable under failure conditions
APIs remain stable and easy to reason about
You understand how frontend behavior connects to backend execution
You use AI tools effectively while maintaining strong ownership of system correctness
You can debug a production issue that crosses the frontend/backend/infrastructure boundary without waiting for someone else
Requirements
5+ years building production software systems
Strong Python experience.
Familiarity with asynchronous programming in any language.
Experience designing and maintaining APIs for production applications
Experience building backend systems beyond request/response — background jobs, event-driven patterns, or async processing
Strong debugging and problem-solving skills
Ability to design systems that behave predictably when things go wrong
Comfort working in an AI-assisted development workflow
Nice to Have
Experience with React or NextJS
Experience building workflow or state-machine-driven systems
Experience reasoning about stateful systems
Experience with FHIR or healthcare data systems (helpful but not required)
Experience with Kubernetes or distributed systems
Experience working in early‑stage startups
What It’s Like to Work with Us We stay close to clinicians We spend time with the people we serve, in their practices and in their communities. The best ideas come from understanding their reality and building alongside them.
We take responsibility and move things forward If something matters, we don’t wait for perfect clarity. We step in, make progress, and figure it out together.
We turn what works into something that lasts We solve problems in real time, then step back and build the systems that make it easier for the next clinician.
We use AI thoughtfully We look for ways to reduce manual work so clinicians can focus on care. If something feels repetitive, we treat it as an opportunity to improve how we operate.
We care about building something meaningful We’re here to help clinicians create independent, community‑rooted practices. That responsibility shapes how we make decisions and how we grow.
We are kind, direct, and low ego We support each other, give honest feedback, and focus on getting to the right answer. We take the work seriously, but not ourselves.
Benefits
Competitive salary and generous, early‑stage equity (4-year grant)
Health, vision, and dental benefits
401(k)
Unlimited PTO
Prime office in Columbus Circle with weekly team lunches
Fun team events and offsites
At Kinstead, we’re building infrastructure for healthcare that serves entire communities—not just a narrow slice of them. That requires a team with diverse perspectives, lived experiences, and ways of thinking. We are committed to hiring people from a wide range of backgrounds, including but not limited to race, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, age, national origin, religion, disability, and veteran status. We believe better teams build better systems—and better systems lead to better care.
We aim to pay competitively for our stage and the importance of the work. Compensation includes base salary, meaningful equity, and benefits, and is designed to align long‑term incentives with the impact you’ll have at Kinstead. In accordance with applicable laws, we provide a reasonable estimate of the salary range for this role. Final compensation will depend on a number of factors, including experience, skillset, and leveling, as well as internal equity considerations. For this role, the estimated base salary range is $160,000 – $205,000 , with most candidates falling somewhere in the middle.
