About The Role

Kyan Health is building the most advanced AI-augmented mental health and wellbeing platform in Europe. Our mission is to bring high-quality, clinically-grounded psychological support to employees and families across multiple countries, languages, and cultural contexts — with AI playing a central role.

We are looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer with deep AI experience, particularly in:

1. AI agents & multi-step reasoning systems

2. LLM application architectures

3. Tool-calling, retrieval, orchestration, and evaluation

4. Modern AI toolchains and best practices

You will work closely with engineering, data, product, and clinical teams to build our AI features end-to-end and help shape the future of our platform.

This is a role with massive influence — we’re early enough that your architectural choices, code, and AI expertise will have a lasting impact.

• Component libraries/design system

Backend & Data

• Node.js (TypeScript)

• Event-driven and service-oriented architecture

• BigQuery, PostgreSQL, NoSQL stores

• Challenge assumptions, propose better approaches, and push for pragmatic, responsible AI usage.

Who We're Looking For

Required:

• Senior-level engineering experience, ideally 6+ years, with strong autonomy.

• Deep understanding of the modern LLM ecosystem: models, embeddings, fine-tuning, structured outputs, evaluation, latency/cost tradeoffs.

• Hands-on experience building production AI agents
  (e.g., planning/multi-step systems, tool-calling, retrieval-integrated workflows).

• Strong React + Next.js + TypeScript experience.

Nice to Have:

• Prior work in healthtech, HR tech, or other sensitive domains.

• Experience with evaluation frameworks, AI observability, or human-in-the-loop workflows.

• Background in mobile development (React Native, native iOS/Android).

• Experience with multi-language or multi-market products.
