Description

This is a pivotal role as a founding member of the engineering team at Pharos. As a Product Engineer, you will bridge the critical gap between product vision and technical execution. You will be responsible for building, shipping, and maintaining our core user‑facing applications, working in close partnership with the founders and design team. These products include an interface for users to review and correct AI‑generated results to medical questions, as well as an analytics and root‑cause analysis platform where users can visualize clinical quality trends and drill down into the causes of specific patient‑safety events.

The scope of this role is intentionally broad. As one of our first engineers, you will be an integral part of the founding team, working at the intersection of product design, user experience, and full‑stack engineering. We are creating a new category of product, requiring 0‑to‑1 innovation – turning a novel vision into a real, tangible application without existing examples to lean on. You will be translating complex requirements and detailed designs into beautiful, functional, and reliable applications. You will have autonomy and ownership over the entire product lifecycle, from the first line of code to deploying in production and monitoring its impact. Your work will directly build the tools healthcare workers use every day to make healthcare safer.

What You'll Do

• End‑to‑End Feature Development : Own the end‑to‑end development of new user‑facing features, from technical design and implementation to testing, deployment, and monitoring.
• Design‑to‑Production : Collaborate closely with designers to translate Figma prototypes into pixel‑perfect, responsive, and intuitive web applications.
• Full‑Stack Implementation : Build and maintain all components of our product, including the front‑end and the back‑end APIs and services that power them.
• Product Ownership : Act like a product owner. Rapidly prototype new ideas, participate in user feedback sessions, and use your product intuition to advocate for the best user experience.
• Infrastructure & Deployment : Manage and improve our CI / CD pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and deployment processes to ensure reliability, scalability, and a fast development loop.
• Uphold Quality : Champion high standards for code quality, testing, and engineering best practices within a fast‑moving startup environment.
• Cross‑Functional Collaboration : Work side‑by‑side with the founders, designers, and AI research team to solve complex problems and build a cohesive, mission‑critical product.
