Jupiter Health | Founding Engineer | New York City (In-person 4 days / remote 1 day in Union Square) | Full-Time | $200K + equity Jupiter is building a better approach to healthcare for 80 million working age Americans like you and me.

We all know that healthcare is broken. In large part, this is because too much quality, pricing, and access data has been hidden from view, and there are too many intermediaries creating complexity between consumers and the care they need. At Jupiter, we are creating a more direct, flexible, and responsive healthcare system that better serves working-age Americans.

Our triple aim: Improve your health, improve your financials, and make it convenient and easy.

We have built a proprietary dataset of over 12 million direct pay rates across 40,000 providers, covering all types of sites of care in the US, from hospitals, surgery centers, imaging, diagnostics, specialists, primary care, urgent care, virtual care, physical therapy, dental, and vision.

We are now building out our consumer search product which we aim to scale up rapidly in 2026.

We are looking for a Founding Engineer energized by our mission and eager to be part of the founding team at a startup tackling a massive market.

Jupiter Health | Engineering Roles | New York preferred | Full-time & Part-time

Jupiter is rewiring healthcare supply and demand, enabling patients to save their healthcare dollars rather than paying them to an insurer, and easily find high-value, high-quality direct pay care.

We have built the largest database of direct pay pricing data in the US, are using AI to make it easily searchable, and are launching innovative insurance plans in the coming weeks.

We are hiring for multiple engineering roles:

- Engineering Lead / Head of Engineering to lead overall technical build-out of product

- Front-End Engineer (must be highly competent with React)

- Back-End Engineer (built mostly in Postgres today)

- AI Engineer to update/improve chatbot (current chatbot is built on GPT-4o)

We value intelligence, competence, teamwork, and energy for the mission. Our team are highly accomplished across disciplines, and have worked in industry and in leadership roles at multiple successful start-ups previously.

If you are interested in any of these roles, we'd love to hear from you! Please reach out at [email protected]

Jupiter Health | Program conversational AI | Unique data assets | Unstructured queries to a structured data answer Interested in working with a unique dataset in healthcare (HC)? We are an NY- and SF-based start-up making it easier to find direct pay healthcare, outside of the traditional insurance system. We are building the largest dataset of direct pay rates in the US. To help consumers find the right service, we need a conversational AI program that can get users from the unstructured ways that people begin to articulate their health needs (symptoms, needs, type of doctor, etc.), to the specific service from our dataset that they need by asking follow-ups and making the correct determination. E.g., from “I think I might have the flu” to a virtual urgent care visit, or from “I need an MRI” to an MRI of the chest, one view, with contrast. We are looking for a highly talented individual interested in this problem who can take it on for us. Please shoot us an email if that may be you! [email protected]
