Product Engineer, Data

About Kairon Health

Kairon is the execution layer for healthcare. We turn fragmented claims and clinical data into actionable workflows that help ACOs and health networks actually capture their shared savings — not just measure them after the fact.

We’re a seed-stage team of Position Overview

We’re seeking a Senior Product Engineer, Data Applications to own the product layer where data meets decision-making. You’ll build the data-powered applications that surface intelligence directly to users — from the Performance App and ACO-in-a-Box tooling to interactive reporting, scorecards, and next-generation analytics experiences.

This is a full-stack, product-oriented engineering role. You’ll design and implement end-to-end solutions (data models, APIs, and UI components) that bring Kairon’s insights to life for practice leaders. You’ll work closely with engineering leadership, product, and analytics teams to transform complex healthcare data into intuitive, high-impact tools.

You’ll thrive here if you’re as excited about what you build as why you’re building it: an engineer who understands product trade-offs, can shape features from user requirements, and enjoys turning messy data into meaningful, elegant applications.

Key Responsibilities

Own the data-to-application layer: Design, build, and maintain data-driven applications such as performance dashboards, scorecards, and analytic workbenches.

Architect end-to-end features: Connect backend models, APIs, and frontend components to deliver interactive insights within the Kairon platform.

Collaborate with product and analytics: Translate user needs and clinical/financial metrics into intuitive visualizations and actionable interfaces.

Advance in-app intelligence: Integrate data pipelines, LLM insights, and healthcare analytics into user-facing modules (Performance App, ACO-in-a-Box, CRM, and others).

Uphold scalability and quality: Design for maintainability, reusability, and performance; implement tests and observability to ensure reliability.

Contribute to design & UX: Work with designers to create cohesive, user-friendly experiences that communicate complex data clearly.

Champion engineering excellence: Establish best practices, documentation, and component libraries for future applications.

Leverage modern AI-assisted tooling: Use LLMs to accelerate development, code review, and refactoring while maintaining rigorous standards.

Qualifications

6+ years of professional experience building production web applications (frontend + backend).

Strong proficiency in Python, Django/DRF, Vue, and SQL; experience with data visualization frameworks and API design.

Experience designing or consuming data models and ETL pipelines (e.g., Snowflake, dbt, or similar).

Proven ability to translate product requirements into technical architecture and deliver polished, high-impact user experiences.

Familiarity with healthcare, analytics, or enterprise SaaS environments.

Clear communication and cross-functional collaboration skills; comfort working directly with product and leadership.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in healthcare or value-based care analytics, EHR data, or claims data models.

Prior work integrating LLM-driven insights, AI-based summarization, or contextual intelligence into applications.

Strong understanding of data visualization principles and UX for analytics products.

Background that spans both engineering and product management (technical PM, full-stack data apps, or similar hybrid roles).

Previous experience in an early-stage or high-growth startup environment.

Why This Role

Impact. You’re not maintaining someone else’s machine. You’re building customer operations from the ground up at a company where the work directly affects whether patients get better care.

Growth. This role has a clear trajectory. Depending on your strengths and interests, this becomes Head of Customer Success, Director of Implementations, or a Product leadership role as we scale. You’ll have the context and relationships to grow into whatever the company needs most.

Stage. We’re past the “will this work?” phase — customers are live and getting value. We’re in the “how do we do this 10x without breaking?” phase. That’s the most interesting operational puzzle in a startup.

Equity. You’ll have meaningful ownership as one of our first 10 hires, with a real seat at the table.

Diversity and inclusion are core to our culture. If you are a member of an underrepresented group in tech, we strongly encourage you to apply.

Compensation Range: $170K - $190K
