Product Engineer

COMPANY OVERVIEW

Pharos is a startup dedicated to improving patient safety in hospitals through advanced AI-powered reporting and analytics. Our mission is to make healthcare safer by automating hospital quality reporting and helping staff identify and prevent the root causes of avoidable harm. Our vision is an AI system reviewing every chart at scale, identifying patterns and giving clinicians the insights they need to prevent the 100k avoidable deaths that occur in U.S. hospitals every year. We raised a $5m seed funding round at the end of 2024.

ABOUT THE ROLE

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'll 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.
