You’ll work side by side with researchers, analysts, data engineers, and security teams, and you’ll own each deployment from the first scoping call to production. You’re the person who turns a first deployment into a lasting customer. ### Key Responsibilities - Deploy Medeloop’s systems and products in each customer’s cloud with infrastructure as code and our deployment pipeline. - Build the connectors and tools the agent calls, from lakehouse tables and internal APIs to EHR data over FHIR. - Turn a team’s procedures, definitions, and business logic into agent workflows and playbooks on Medeloop’s products, so the agent works the way that team works. - Define evaluations and launch criteria with the customer, test against answers their experts trust, and ship only when the workflow meets them. - Scope each workflow with the customer, estimate the effort, build, test, take it live, and measure it against the success criteria you agreed on. - Bring a security-first mindset to everything you build. You’ll work with sensitive patient data in a highly regulated environment under HIPAA, and you’ll walk customer security teams through private connectivity, access controls, and PHI handling, explaining precisely what stays in their environment and what returns. - Turn custom builds into reusable connectors, playbooks, and platform features, and bring what you learn in the field back to product and engineering. Hold the line on one-off requests that won’t make the product better. - Monitor the workflows you ship, fix what breaks when customer systems change, and improve them as usage grows. - Join discovery and scoping conversations with our leadership, and help size the work before it’s priced. ### Who You Are - Experience building scalable agentic systems that carry out long-horizon, multi-step tasks, and designing the evaluation frameworks that show they work reliably. - Experience building with LLM APIs, including tool calling, MCP or similar protocols, prompt and workflow design, and evaluations. - Deep, day-to-day fluency with coding agents such as Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor, and a track record of using them to ship high-quality code fast. - Hands-on experience with major cloud providers and their infrastructure. - Experience with data lakehouses and warehouses. - An extremely clear communicator, in writing and in person, with technical and non-technical audiences alike. - Confidence in a room with a researcher, a data engineer, and a CISO, and the ability to turn ambiguous requests into scoped, shippable work. - Comfort with autonomy and ambiguity, the judgment to move fast without cutting corners on security, and a willingness to travel to customer sites. - Fearlessness about learning, with the eagerness to dive into bespoke workflows and niche concepts you’ve never seen before and to take on ambitious projects outside your past experience. - **Nice to have:** Experience with EHR, claims, OMOP, or FHIR data, and work under HIPAA or in another highly regulated deployment environment; forward-deployed, solutions, or implementation engineering, ideally at a startup; and containers and sandboxing. A clinical or healthcare background is not required. ### Why Medeloop - **Ownership from day one:** small team, high-trust, no layers between your work and its impact - **Technically ambitious:** you'll build AI-powered workflows, not just support them - **Real-world stakes:** your work accelerates drug development, addresses health equity, and improves clinical research for institutions that matter - **Strong foundation:** Series A, top-tier investors, and a data asset (200M+ patient records) that most companies spend years trying to build [View posting at Medeloop](https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/medeloop/jobs/4434047009) ## About Medeloop Builds AI agents that turn clinical research questions into validated, auditable analyses on institutional or licensed healthcare data.
