Healthcare in the U.S. is a mess, and most of the data that could help is locked in places nobody can use. Komodo has mapped the patient journey across the country: diagnoses, treatments, providers, payers. Our customers are pharma companies, payers and health systems that want to act on that picture.
We're building the platform that puts it in their hands. There's an AI analyst that works across the whole map. There are apps that turn a population described in plain English into a full report in seconds, and tools that let analysts open, check and rerun the code behind every answer. Underneath all of it is a single query engine that every app and agent shares, so a new product is weeks of work instead of quarters.
Building has gotten cheap. Deciding what to build is the hard part now, and that's the job. We want product managers who:
• Have shipped data, analytics or developer products that people use every day • Prototype things themselves with AI coding tools, and would rather show a working version than write a spec • Can sit with a customer, find the problem underneath the request, and say no to the rest • Write clearly and briefly Healthcare experience helps, but it isn't required. Curiosity about how the system actually works is. Small team, real customers, and more leverage per person than I've seen anywhere.If that sounds like you, email our head of product at kaushal.parikh@komodohealth.com Or me at ramraj.velmurugan@komodohealth.com

Paramark helps Marketing teams optimize spend across all of their channels and programs. There are proven scientific ways to do this, but they are poorly understood and practiced by only a tiny fraction of teams. Our product ingests data from all of our customers' marketing channels and uses it to train open-source ML models for both measurement and experimentation. This makes it possible for any marketer to use these methods.
In this domain, it's hard to figure out what to build, and it's even harder to be both accurate and simple. You'll be joining a small team -- we have four product engineers. That means owning systems end to end and having real influence over what gets built. Your typical project will start with a high level goal, and you will figure out the rest.
Founded 2023, ~16 people, $8M from Greylock, cash-flow positive. Reasonable working hours: when the Mercury News covered the return of 996 culture, we were the counterexample.

Looking for 8+ years, full-stack. Some exposure to statistics, experimentation, or A/B testing helps.
Stack: TypeScript, React, Python, Postgres. Google Cloud, Kubernetes, FastAPI, taskiq.

I'm Yarik, cofounder and CTO. Before this I spent 20 years in tech with 10+ years running infra, ML and search teams at Google, Meta and Apple.
We love maps and build location/businesses APIs for AI apps and agents. If ChatGPT tells you a restaurant is open and it actually closed in March, that's the problem we fix. We check whether a business still exists, whether its hours and details are right, and enrich it with what's being written about it on the web (news, articles, events). Customers get all of it through one API and we solve it for them with our models which use all available sources and ai voice agents which can confirm the information.
You'd be one of the first engineers. Some weeks that's search and ranking, some weeks it's data pipelines or evals, some weeks it's the API or something a customer asked for yesterday. You'll have a big say in what gets built, not just how.
Stack: Python, FastAPI, Postgres/PostGIS, DynamoDB, Redis, AWS (EKS), our own ML models plus LLM APIs (OpenAI, Gemini, Anthropic).
What I'm looking for: - 2+ years shipping production systems, or fewer if your background is unusual and you can show what you've built - real experience with at least one of: search/IR, large-scale data processing, ML systems, API design - you already use Claude Code, Cursor or similar as part of how you work - geo/POI data experience is a plus, not required
Fair warning: we are a small team, fast pace, and there could be nights and weekends. If that's not where you are in life right now, totally fine, this just isn't a good fit.
Process: a short note on why you, a 30 min call with me and then Vlad, a technical deep dive, then a paid trial project.

You’ll lead work such as application migrations, API and workflow modernization, and service decoupling; improve reliability and developer productivity; and mentor engineers across the team.
Hybrid schedule: two days in the office each week, in San Francisco or San Jose. At least one day every two weeks must be in San Jose for sprint planning.

Discord is where communities and friend groups spend time together, on desktop, mobile, and now more and more inside games and third-party apps built on our platform. That surface area, plus a huge, engaged, occasionally adversarial user base, makes application security a genuinely hard and interesting problem here.
We are hiring a Senior Software Engineer to join the Application Security team. This is hands-on product engineering: building security features that protect user accounts, strengthening authentication and session security, and improving security-critical services. You will work directly with product teams to ship user-facing account security tools and address emerging threats.
Stack: Python primarily, some TypeScript/React, some Rust, occasional JavaScript. Runs on GCP.
Looking for: hands-on AppSec experience (not just compliance-flavored security), comfort reading and writing code across languages, experience shipping production software, and sound judgment on prioritizing real risk over checklist security. Experience with authentication, passkeys, MFA, or session management is especially relevant.
Location: Remote from the US West Coast. If you are in the Bay Area, our SF office is an option. Relocation to the Bay Area is not required.
Interview process: recruiter call, coding round, HM interview, virtual onsite, decision.
Hedge is an AI-native insurance company. We started as a wholesale brokerage for specialty commercial insurance, where AI agents do most of the work of placing policies: reading messy submissions, chasing missing information, working with 100+ insurance markets, and moving accounts toward coverage. The agents are in production doing real work for paying customers.
We're hiring our founding engineer to own the platform end to end: agents, evals, data pipelines, integrations, and reliability. Python/FastAPI, TypeScript/React, Postgres. You should be deeply technical, resourceful, and have taken something from zero to one. No insurance experience needed.

In a world of cognitive offloading, Brilliant's AI tutor gets kids to actually think. The graphical canvas is interactable by both the learner and their tutor, leading to pedagogically-rich interactions.
We're hiring an interactive-focused engineer to craft the building blocks that power this experience. Each interactive exposes an API used by learning designers, our authoring agents, and the tutor itself. And every configuration those APIs can produce has to be a correct, solvable, meaningful puzzle. It's a tricky technical problem with a big payoff for our learners.
Engineers at Brilliant think about both "building the right thing" AND "building the thing right" while pursuing high standards of excellence for ourselves, our product, and our codebase.

I’m Chris, VP Engineering at Fazeshift. We’re nine engineers plus our Founder/CTO and me, and I’m hiring someone who can help us do more, better: increase both what we can build and the quality and sophistication of the software we build.
Accounts receivable sounds boring until you look under the hood. It sits at the intersection of money, business relationships, software systems of various vintages, and a huge amount of repetitive human work. Instead of giving finance teams another dashboard to stare at, we’re building AI agents that actually do the work across billing, collections, payments, cash application, and the systems connecting them. We’ve grown revenue 12x since 2024, and eight unicorns now run AR on Fazeshift.
A big part of what makes the engineering interesting is that we’re intentionally not the system of record. Our customers already run on ERPs, CRMs, banks, billing systems, payment processors, spreadsheets, and internal software, so we have to understand state across systems we don’t control, act safely in them, and recover when reality disagrees with what an API says should have happened. A timeout doesn’t necessarily mean a write failed. Webhooks can arrive late or twice. A payment may not contain enough information to identify an invoice. In those cases, blindly retrying can be exactly the wrong thing to do.
We use coding agents heavily ourselves. Engineers use Conductor, stacked PRs, Linear, and multiple frontier models every day, with internal skills and tooling that let agents drive and validate our local development environment. We’re especially interested in engineers whose development workflow has already materially changed because of coding agents: people who are comfortable delegating meaningful work, keeping independent threads moving in parallel, debugging where agents get stuck, and improving the surrounding system when the workflow breaks down. But generated code is still your code. Judgment, debugging, systems thinking, taste, and understanding what actually shipped matter more here, not less.
Our development style is roughly: design enough to find the shape of the problem, then build to learn. There’s a short distance here between noticing a problem, deciding what should happen, building it, and seeing the result in production with our customers. You’ll own meaningful problems from ambiguity through design, implementation, rollout, and production, and you’ll work directly with the people affected by what you build.
We’re looking for 5+ years of professional experience, strong TypeScript/full-stack skills, solid systems judgment, and real production ownership. No fintech background needed. Stack: TypeScript/Next.js, tRPC, Prisma/MySQL/PlanetScale, Inngest, AWS.
I read every HN application myself. Email chris.zehner@fazeshift.com with HN in the subject, your LinkedIn/GitHub/résumé, and a few sentences about something interesting you’ve built or improved recently.
We're building the VMware for GPUs. Most GPUs in the cloud sit idle a lot of the time because they're bolted to one machine over PCIe. We decouple them.
Our virtualization layer is a userspace shim, loaded through LD_PRELOAD, that intercepts CUDA calls and ships them over the network to a host with a physical GPU somewhere else in the data center. Workloads run unchanged. When a process goes idle, the GPU detaches and gets reassigned, and reattaches in tens of milliseconds when it's needed again. Think Ceph for GPUs: the GPU becomes a network resource a cluster-wide scheduler can pool and pack.
The hard part is making that fast. We're within ~10% of native on most AI workloads, and it lets us serve ~1.8x more users on the same fleet. We run it in production as our own GPU cloud and sell it to enterprises with underutilized fleets.
Team is from Citadel Securities, Aquatic, Old Mission, AWS, and Bain. Series A, $17.5M raised from Matrix and Y Combinator.
Open roles:
- Software Engineer, C++ Systems ($215K-$325K + meaningful equity). Low-level, latency-sensitive work on the virtualization layer. Quant dev / HFT background preferred: https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/thundercompute/2efae53b-817c-43e7-9...

At Shepherd, we're pursuing the most ambitious technical vision in commercial insurance: fully autonomous underwriting. Shepherd is an AI-native commercial insurance platform transforming how high-hazard industries get covered.
The infrastructure behind the AI boom (data centers, semiconductor fabs, renewable energy assets) has to be built and insured, but traditional carriers weren't built for this speed. We built Shepherd to solve that.
We announced our $42M Series B earlier this year! That brings our total funding to over $60M — led by Intact Private Capital, the investment arm of one of the largest insurers in the world. Intact is not only our lead investor but also a carrier partner, a testament to the confidence the incumbent industry has in what we're building.
We’re looking for product-minded, high ownership engineers to join our team! The Engineering team is HQ’d in SF, but we’re growing in NYC now too!
We’re hiring for 2 Senior Full Stack Software Engineers, 1 Machine Learning Engineer and 1 AI Product Manager in SF, and 2 Staff Full Stack Software Engineers in NYC. Engineers own projects end-to-end so full stack ability is expected.
Check out our open roles here: https://shepherdinsurance.com/careers Our stack includes: Typescript, React, Next.js, GraphQL w/ Apollo, Node.js, Postgres & Redis – If you have experience building AI agents or multi-step reasoning systems, we’d love to hear from you.
