AI Product Engineer

About the role

ABOUT THE ROLE

We’re looking for a talented and driven AI Product Engineer to join our team at Bunkerhill Health. Our platform processes over 200,000 CT scans and millions of patient records each year — directly improving patient outcomes across multiple health systems.

In this role, you’ll take ownership of product features end-to-end, from design through deployment, working closely with cross-functional partners to deliver software that impacts real patients. We do not have product managers, so a lot of what a PM would do at typical companies is the responsibility of an AI Product Engineer at Bunkerhill. You will be working on building and deploying cutting edge agentic workflows at scale. You’ll thrive if you enjoy solving diverse technical problems and working at the intersection of product and engineering. This role is primarily backend focused, with opportunities to contribute across the stack.

We have a beautiful sunny office in SoMa, San Francisco and we go in 4x a week!
