About this role
We are looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer with 3-5+ years of experience to join a fast-growing AI healthcare startup and own projects that span the entire stack. You'll be building greenfield products that automate the healthcare recruiting pipeline — from sourcing to onboarding — at a company that's already powering thousands of candidate interactions monthly and scaling to millions. You should have experience at both an early-stage VC-backed startup and a larger tech company, bringing best practices without being rigid. This is a high-ownership role where you'll work closely with the founding team, ship quickly, and see your work in production with real feedback loops the next day.

What will you be doing?
Own and deliver greenfield projects across the full stack (backend, infrastructure, and frontend) powering Take2's new product suite
Evolve and scale the backend architecture as the platform grows from thousands to millions of candidate interactions
Build and ship end-to-end features in a TypeScript-first environment on serverless AWS infrastructure
Collaborate directly with the Director of Engineering and founding team with extremely short feedback loops and high autonomy
Help establish engineering standards and technical culture as a key early member of an 11-person team
Why candidates should join
Take2 builds AI agents that automate the entire healthcare recruiting pipeline — from screening interviews to license verifications to job offers. They already power thousands of candidate conversations monthly and are scaling to millions.
Backed by Human Capital (a $3B fund behind SpaceX) with a $19M Series A raised in under a month. Zero to $4M revenue in 8 months and on track for a Series B by year-end. Board advisors include ex-CHROs of Google, HP, Visa, and Disney.
Senior full-stack (backend-leaning) role with significant greenfield ownership. $180K–$220K base + competitive equity. Hybrid in NYC (Mon–Thu) with a tight 3-round interview process.
