About Sage Care

Sage Care is a fast-growing, early-stage healthcare startup founded by exceptional leaders from Apple, Uber, Carbon Health and backed by top-tier venture capital (General Catalyst, Chelsea Clinton). With a strong customer pipeline, Sage Care is transforming healthcare by simplifying care navigation.

Our platform makes it easier for patients to find the right doctor and helps providers focus on those who need them most through harnessing the latest AI innovations.

Building on our successful collaborations with health systems across the U.S., we have expanded internationally to the MENA region. We are now partnering with health systems there to deploy our AI-powered care navigation platform.

About the Role

Our products rely on management and semantic projection of data like Provider (doctor) information, Referrals, Patient charts and history, workflow SOPs, etc. The goal is to fetch this data from our partners, store it, extract high level semantic projections (knowledge) from the data and help power our key products including Provider Matching, Scheduling, Referral Recommendation engine and AI voice agents. In this role, you will own the full lifecycle of the data including User facing UI to view the data along with ability to update it when needed.

This role sits at the intersection of Data management, ML/AI research and software engineering. We’re looking for someone who can help build out a scalable data management and extraction solution. You will work closely with engineers who work on the matching software, medical experts and professionals who can help guide the knowledge extraction.

What You'll Do

Build and own the core data management system.

• Build Data fetch solutions via integration with systems like EPIC, etc.

• Build flexible, scalable and efficient storage solutions that are HIPAA compliant

• Experience working closely with end users in iterative fashion gathering feedback along the way.

• Strong backend engineering skills and systems thinking.

• Experience working with ambiguous problems and defining solutions from first principles.

• Experience turning novel techniques into testable prototypes.

Nice to Have

• Experience with evaluation frameworks and quality measurement.

• Experience with medical AI systems.

• Experience with extraction of text/data from PDFs and Images.

Example Things you’ve Done
