Requirements
• You've built and scaled an engineering team from a handful of people into a high-performing org — you've owned hiring, set the bar, and closed exceptional engineers. • You're AI-native: you've shipped AI systems in production with LLMs and agents, and you lead teams that do the same. • You've operated at a high bar at organizations known for exceptional engineering — your track record speaks for itself. • You're a lean player-coach who leads first but keeps the technical depth to make sharp architecture calls and own the roadmap. • You've shipped production systems on messy, real-world data — not clean benchmarks — and you build for correctness when being wrong has consequences. • Healthcare, HIPAA, claims, or clinical-data experience • Production ML or data-intensive systems: causal inference, prediction, or large-scale pipelines • Leap's stack: TypeScript, React, Node/Python, PostgreSQL, BigQuery, GCP, or LLM/agent systems • Early-stage experience as a founder, founding engineer, or first engineering leader
Responsibilities
• Building the Team • Own hiring end to end — set ambitious targets, build the pipeline, and close engineers who clear a high bar • Grow the team from its founding core into a high-performing organization • Define what great looks like: the bar, the interview loop, and the standard the team is held to • Build the structure and culture a fast-moving team needs as it scales • The Roadmap You'll Own • Own and sequence the technical roadmap, making the prioritization and build-vs-buy calls that hold up as Leap scales • Build the cross-benefit drug identity layer that resolves one specialty therapy across NDC and HCPCS/J-codes as biosimilars multiply • Ship causal savings attribution that proves impact rather than projecting it — ROI an employer can defend in an audit • Build the intervention engine and AI workflows — at-risk prediction, prior authorization, formulary and site-of-care optimization — that turn analysis into action • Hands-On Technical Leadership • Set the standard for how Leap builds: AI-native, fast, and correct by default • Make the foundational data and architecture decisions the rest of the roadmap depends on • Unblock the team, own the hard technical calls, and dive in when it matters
Benefits
• Eligibility for equity • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage • Access to 401(k) retirement plan • Flexible remote work • At Leap, we’re building an outlier company with real impact — and that takes focus, energy, and commitment. If that excites you, we’d love to hear from you.
