About Luminai
Healthcare operations have always depended on people to bridge the gaps that technology couldn't. It relies on complex manual work to carry out critical internal processes, yet most health systems don’t have enough resources to properly automate these tasks, leaving them stuck in outdated, labor-intensive SOPs.
Luminai structures the chaos, automates the manual handoffs, and deploys end-to-end workflows across every system, providing the integrated intelligence layer to improve processes over time. By delegating to autonomous AI systems those mission-critical workflows that previously expended valuable human time, Luminai allows doctors and administrators to do what they do best: Focus on Patients.
We've raised $60M in funding, including our recent Series B led by Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia India), with participation from healthcare-focused Define Ventures and continued support from General Catalyst and Y Combinator. We're backed by some of the best investors in Silicon Valley, including Kevin Weil (Chief Product Officer at OpenAI), Arash Ferdowsi (co-founder of Dropbox), Katie Stanton (former VP Global Media, Twitter), and CEOs of companies such as Flexport, Notion, Front, Ramp, and Twitch.
Our team is in-office 4 days a week (Monday - Friday, Wednesday optional WFH) in either San Francisco, California or New York, New York.
About The Role
As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will sit at the intersection of engineering, product, and customer delivery. You’ll embed directly with customers, deeply understand their workflows, and design and deploy AI-powered solutions that deliver immediate, real-world impact.
This is a highly autonomous, hands-on role for someone who thrives in ambiguous environments, enjoys working directly with customers, and wants to shape product direction through what they see in the field. You’ll partner closely with Product and Engineering to turn customer needs into scalable systems that improve how healthcare organizations operate.
What You’ll Do
Embed directly with customers to understand their workflows, constraints, and success criteria
Design, build, and deploy AI-driven solutions tailored to real operational problems
Build and maintain production systems including APIs, integrations, monitoring, and feedback loops
Translate business requirements and customer needs into technical architectures and implementations
Operate in high-stakes environments where reliability, speed, and judgment matter
Identify patterns across customer deployments and feed insights back into core product and platform development
Partner closely with Product and Engineering to influence roadmap, abstractions, and long-term system design
Own deployments end-to-end, from initial scoping through launch and iteration
What We’re Looking For
Strong proficiency in Python (TypeScript / JavaScript experience is a plus).
Experience working with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure).
Ability to translate ambiguous requirements into working, production-ready systems.
Strong communication skills and comfort working with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
High ownership mindset with the ability to operate independently in fast-changing environments.
Experience with AI systems (LLMs, vector databases, prompt engineering, or agent frameworks) is a strong plus.
