Job description

Why Lamar Health

  • What do we do :   We take care of shitty paperwork for very expensive drugs.
  • Location :  On-site in San Mateo, CA
  • Type :   Contract-to-Hire, Full-time
  • Compensation :   Competitive + mission-driven impact
  • Team : Our CEO worked on the AI model for the COVID Pfizer vaccine. Our CTO built an AI model for optimizing claims thats used by most cancer clinics in the US today. We’re a good fit for someone that needs to have this level of impact.

About Lamar Health

Lamar Health is building modern infrastructure for healthcare delivery — helping care teams, clinics, and patients connect seamlessly through intelligent software. Our mission is to bring speed, clarity, and coordination to a space that’s too often fragmented and slow.

We work with leading healthcare organizations to reimagine how technology supports care delivery — from data integration to patient experience. Every deployment matters because it directly affects how real people access care.

About the Role

As a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) at Lamar Health, you’ll bridge the gap between our core platform and the real-world needs of our customers — health systems, clinics, and care teams. You’ll work hand-in-hand with users to understand their workflows, design solutions that streamline operations, and ensure that our technology drives measurable impact in patient outcomes and care efficiency.

You’ll write production-quality code, collaborate with our product and engineering teams, and bring new ideas from the field into the heart of our roadmap.

What You’ll Do

  • Work directly with healthcare customers to understand their clinical, operational, and data challenges.
  • Design and implement integrations, data pipelines, and lightweight applications on top of Lamar’s platform.
  • Build internal tools and deployment automation that make future implementations faster and more reliable.
  • Collaborate with product and engineering teams to influence the roadmap based on real-world customer needs.
  • Prototype rapidly, deploy confidently, and iterate based on feedback from users in the field.
  • Translate technical complexity into clear, actionable insights for non-technical stakeholders.
  • Who You Are

  • You have 0–3 years of experience building and shipping software in production (Python, TypeScript, or similar).
  • You’re excited about the intersection of technology, healthcare, and product thinking.
  • You love talking to users, uncovering pain points, and crafting pragmatic technical solutions.
  • You’re comfortable in ambiguity — prioritizing impact over perfection.
  • You value empathy and communication as much as technical skill.
  • You want to see your work directly improve healthcare delivery and patient experience.
  • Bonus Points

  • Projects you’ve worked on and can share.
  • Prior experience in a customer-facing engineering, consulting, or startup role.
  • Comfort working in regulated or privacy-sensitive environments (HIPAA, SOC2).
  • Why You’ll Love Working at Lamar Health

  • Impact :  Your work will touch real clinics, doctors, and patients — every deployment matters.
  • Ownership :   You’ll shape how our platform is used in the field and help define our product direction.
  • Growth :  Work cross-functionally with engineers, clinicians, and product leaders solving complex, meaningful problems.
  • Mission :   Join a team genuinely driven to make healthcare more human, efficient, and connected.
  • Team :   People that move the ball with you to get shit done.
