Luminai is an AI-powered healthcare operations platform that automates mission-critical workflows across health systems. The company has raised $60M (Series B led by Peak XV Partners) and is backed by prominent investors including Kevin Weil (OpenAI CPO), Arash Ferdowsi (Dropbox co-founder), and CEOs from Flexport, Notion, Front, Ramp, and Twitch.
As a Staff Software Engineer on the Platform team, you will be a foundational technical leader responsible for designing and implementing core platform infrastructure used by organizations worldwide to deploy and scale executable AI automations in production environments. This is a senior individual contributor role with significant technical scope and influence across the engineering organization.
Key responsibilities include:
- Design and maintain core frameworks, libraries, and shared packages that all product engineers depend on daily
- Own developer experience end-to-end: local development environments, build systems, CI/CD pipelines, test infrastructure, and onboarding velocity
- Build and maintain quality tooling (linters, formatters, static analysis, code generation, automated checks) that maintains high standards without creating friction
- Identify and eliminate bottlenecks in the shipping process; re-architect foundational abstractions to support team and product scaling
- Lead core technical initiatives that set quality standards across the codebase
- Define and scale experimentation, monitoring, reliability, and observability for production systems
- Drive improvements to the Luminai IDE for end-user experience
- Establish secure defaults for access control, secrets management, and authentication across the platform
Required qualifications:
- 8+ years as a software engineer with experience driving zero-to-one projects from inception
- Proven track record shipping high-quality code on complex problems
- Experience building internal frameworks, libraries, or developer tooling that other engineers depend on
- Direct experience designing high-performance backend systems in production with strong architectural judgment
- Working familiarity with modern infrastructure (Kafka, Kubernetes, or similar)
- Solid understanding of backend and cloud security fundamentals (authentication/authorization, secrets management, encryption)
Bonus: familiarity with frontend foundations (JS toolchain, bundlers, build systems).
The team works in-office 4 days per week (Monday-Friday, with Wednesday as optional work-from-home) at the San Francisco or New York office.
