Senior AI/Backend Developer
About the project:
We are seeking a production-focused and highly analytical Senior AI/Backend Developer to join our team for a high-stakes healthcare startup. This role is responsible for architecting and deploying multi-layered voice AI agents that simulate natural, empathetic phone calls for elderly and Medicare patients. You will focus on solving the "uncanny valley" of voice AI, ensuring ultra-low latency so that interactions feel instant and human, rather than like a "thinking" chatbot. This position requires deep expertise in real-time voice technologies, the ability to troubleshoot complex data flows mid-call, and a commitment to maintaining total data integrity within a HIPAA-regulated environment.
Does this relate to you?
You have extensive experience in Voice AI and Backend development, specifically deploying real-time systems to thousands of users.
Mandatory proficiency in Python and Voice Orchestration tools like Pipecat and Twilio ConversationRelay.
Deep knowledge of LangGraph for managing complex, multi-agent logic and mid-call hand-offs.
Proficiency with tools like ClaudeCode, Cursor, or GitHub Copilot to accelerate development and solve complex architectural puzzles.
Proven ability to optimize RAG pipelines and WebSocket flows to achieve "instant" response times essential for elderly users.
Upper-Intermediate English or higher with the ability to overlap with US Central Time.
Knowledge of BAA/HIPAA protocols is essential.
A new team member will be in charge of:
Take full responsibility for the implementation and optimization of Pipecat and Twilio ConversationRelay to ensure natural, low-latency interactions.
Design and manage multi-agent workflows using LangGraph while ensuring seamless transitions and context retention during mid-call agent hand-offs.
Develop and own agent tool-call mechanisms with a strict focus on idempotency, retries, and safe failure modes for mission-critical health data.
Maintain full accountability for data security and privacy protocols within GCP/AWS environments to ensure every deployment adheres to BAA standards.
Proactively identify latency bottlenecks and initiate architectural improvements to keep the patient experience fluid and reliable.
