Summary
About this role
Pairtu is building the AI operating system for care navigation — a business-in-a-box platform for patient advocates that blends high-touch human support with AI-driven workflows. We need a founding engineer who codes at a senior level, thrives in ambiguity, and knows how to apply AI tooling in a production environment. This role involves architecting, building, and shipping the core product while leading the testing of AI tools to drive workflows.

About Pairtu
Pairtu is on a mission to transform how families navigate care, starting with Medicare patients. Our work is deeply personal, and we’re growing fast. This is a $60bn market that is personal to us (we lost father figures and best friends due to healthcare). Learn more about our why → Watch our company video.
We match Medicare patients with trained advocates and supercharge those advocates with agentic tools (Care Agent for coordination & comms, Docu Agent for billing/compliance/scheduling, Task Agent for care-plan execution). New Medicare CPT/navigation codes (e.g., PIN) make this model financially sustainable; we handle clinical routing, documentation, and RCM so advocates focus on outcomes, not admin.
Mission: Make healthcare human again by ensuring every Medicare patient has a dedicated advocate who navigates the system, coordinates care, and fights for the patient’s best outcome.
Traction & model: Millions in run-rate in months; 60%+ gross margins; rapid D2C demand (we’re turning people away) with a roadmap to B2B. Our goal is to 8x in the next 6-12months for our next round of financing.
Tech stack & approach: Heavy backend and now moving into front-end experiences for patients and advocates.
What changed / why now: 10,000 people age into Medicare daily; CMS unlocked navigation codes; AI agents collapse non-value-add work—turning an historically unprofitable category into a high-margin, scalable platform. A competitor validated category demand; we’re winning with product depth, compliance-first workflows, cultural competence, and a B2B expansion plan.
Team & advisors: Serial founders who have exited (both attended Harvard and HBS). Advisors include leaders from tier one companies in healthcare and tech. We bias to builders over managers.
Culture: High-ownership, hands-on, no ivory-tower managers. Bias to action, intense standards, radical candor, and compassion. We value diversity, scrappiness, and measurable outcomes (patient NPS, show-up rates, avoidable ER visits). If you like shipping weekly, instrumenting what you ship, and directly hearing from the patients you help—you’ll thrive here.
