About Frontier Health

Frontier Health is building the system of action for healthcare: end-to-end AI co-workers that perform administrative jobs.

Healthcare has an administrative crisis breaking patient care — the WHO predicts a 10 million person workforce shortfall by 2030. Administrative staff are the invisible machinery powering healthcare systems, yet they're over capacity, under-resourced, and underfunded. Care coordination runs on shadow IT: spreadsheets, paper notes, phone calls, and outdated technology.

Frontier's AI co-workers fast-track the admin behind care decisions, designed to slot into the teams, processes, and tools already in place. Founded 18 months ago, we've experience deploying to over 40 hospitals. The team comes from Palantir, Google DeepMind, and Apple. We've raised $16M and were recently valued at $60M, backed by Tier One UK and international investors.

We’re an in person Company, valuing being in the office (Farringdon/Chancery Lane) 5 days a week, or onsite with the customer (as required). We’re also flat, valuing ownership and impact of hierarchy, process and structure. You’ll be collaborating with people across engineering and business functions, with functional leadership, where required, and close and regular touchpoints with the CEO.

Values

• Outcome Orientation — we focus on results and delivering value to customers

• Grit — we stick with hard problems and see them through

• Kindness — we presume best intentions and treat each other with respect

• Bias to Action — we prioritise forward momentum and proactive problem-solving

Who we're looking for

You care deeply about fixing healthcare and can empathise with administrators who are stressed and under-resourced. You take ownership — not just of your work, but of anything broken that you spot. You're honest about mistakes and use them to do better. You embrace challenges as opportunities to grow.

The Role

You'll own end-to-end delivery of AI workflows across the full stack — taking ambiguous, non- technical requirements and shipping world-class product that solves real problems for healthcare administrators. You'll work directly with customers and the product team, bringing back what you learn in the field to improve the core product.

What success looks like

• You ship high-quality product quickly and fix things you spot that are broken, from day one

• You proactively identify what's needed, not just what's assigned — and act on it

• You gather customer insight that directly translates into improvements in the core product

• You raise the bar on engineering quality and velocity, and contribute positively to the team's culture

• You solicit feedback and constantly strive to learn and grow

Good-to-know information

What we offer

• Visa sponsorship: we are able to sponsor visas if required.

• Benefits: Health Insurance, Pension, Monthly Team Socials, Enhanced Parental Leave, Snacks

• Holiday: 25 days holiday + UK bank holidays

• Expectations: we work from the office (Farringdon/Chancery Lane), or customer site (as needed) 5 days a week.
