Job Description

About Novoflow

Novoflow is building AI Employees for medical clinics. We see two industry-breaking problems: over 400 EHRs, 1000s of vendors, and millions of patients all lacking interoperability across healthcare, and a trail of operational inefficiency following it. We’re building the scalable, reliable, and safe AI infrastructure that solves this problem.

With multi-year contracts secured and strong investor backing from YC advisors and top investors, we’re scaling our engineering fast to meet skyrocketing demand.

About the Role

  • Design custom prompt frameworks for our various core infrastructure agents.

  • Cross-functional Collaboration: Work closely with co-founders and other team members to translate business vision into actionable project plans.
  • Ownership: Take full product ownership from ideation to launch, including integration into existing systems.

  • Prior Experience:
    • 2-10 years of hands-on general engineering + context engineering experience.
    • Green Flag: Leading agent development at prev. high-impact startups/companies
  • Educational Background: Ideally, candidates should have attended a college ranked in the top 50 in the United States.
