Why Translucent
Healthcare providers drive $2.5 trillion in medical expenditures annually — and operate on razor-thin 2–5% margins. Despite these stakes, the finance teams behind these organizations are buried in spreadsheets, manual data pulls, and disconnected systems, spending more time finding and cleaning data than actually using it to make decisions.
Translucent is changing that. We're building the agentic AI platform designed exclusively for healthcare finance— giving every finance team, department, service line their own arsenal of AI Agents that run 24/7, understand their specific data, business logic, and workflows.
Founded in 2024 and backed by GV, NEA, FPV, and Virtue, we've already been deployed by healthcare organizations managing over $5 billion in combined revenue. The product-market fit is real, the problem is massive, and we're just getting started. If you want to work at the intersection of AI and one of the most complex, consequential industries in the world, this is the place.
Role Overview
We're looking for an AI Engineer to help build the agentic platform at the core of Translucent: the AI financial platform transforming how healthcare organizations make business decisions.
You'll work hands-on across R&D and platform engineering — improving the underlying agent capabilities every team builds on, rather than configuring agents for a single customer. You'll standardize the tool surfaces new capabilities plug into, make the agent platform ready to integrate across products, and own the evals, context, and harness engineering that make it reliable enough for healthcare finance.
You'll match the right agentic architecture to each use case, turn core capabilities into an ecosystem others build on, and own quality end-to-end.
If you are energized by fast-paced environments, love sweating the details of production AI systems, partnering closely with product and design, and seeing your work in customers' hands quickly, you'll feel at home here.
3+ years of software engineering experience, with meaningful production work in Python
Direct experience shipping LLM-powered or agentic systems in production — not just prototypes. You know where models fail and how to make them reliable
Hands-on experience with at least one modern agent framework (LangGraph, Google ADK, LlamaIndex, Claude Agent SDK, or equivalent), and a clear point of view on what to use vs. build
Plus deep, demonstrable expertise in at least one (ideally two) of the following:
We're looking for engineers who own meaningful surface area and drive work forward independently. You'll bring sharp judgment on architecture and build-vs-buy trade-offs under ambiguity, a bias toward shipping a working V1 fast, and the craft to make agentic systems reliable enough for healthcare finance — not just demos. https://www.translucent.co/
