[Hiring] Forward-Deployed Engineer @Bask Health

Role Description

As a Senior Forward-Deployed Engineer at Bask, you will work directly with the CEO and CTO to build and design the software infrastructure that will serve as the backbone of Telehealth.

• Help lead frontend migrations, performance work, and production AI builds.
• Success looks like production code live in customer environments, customer teams able to extend it on their own, and a wider partnership with each account.
• Our serverless platform is a multi-tenant monorepo — Next.js and React on the front, tRPC and Prisma behind it, deployed on SST, TypeScript throughout.
• One engineer can follow a change from a form field to the database without crossing a team boundary.
• Engineering at Bask Health is AI-first and builder-led.
• Work starts with general understanding of the problem, moves to tools like Claude and Cursor for further investigation, making a plan and building, tested on staging with realistic data, released to production, tested with real patient and care teams, and then back for systems and polish.
• AI is a default part of how we work, not a side experiment.
• We are looking for engineers who take end-to-end ownership, treat AI as a real collaborator, and care deeply about building software that meaningfully improves how healthcare is delivered.

Qualifications

• A full-stack generalist who has taken a product from 0 to 1.
• Entrepreneurial, willing to roll up their sleeves, and drawn to a mission that disrupts how healthcare gets delivered.
• 3+ years of experience.
• You are dangerous on the frontend of the stack.
• You are a highly skilled dev (React, TypeScript, Next.js, Tailwind, and JavaScript).
• You also have backend skills (tRPC, Drizzle ORM, SQL, Node, SST).
• You can work independently and are comfortable owning entire projects or large areas of the codebase.
• Strong experience building paid products and services is preferred.
• React Native or Expo experience is a plus.
• You are a strong communicator, able to clearly articulate technical problems, constraints, and timelines.
• You are comfortable working in a fast-paced, unstructured, startup environment.

Requirements

• Design, build, and ship high-quality product experiences.
• Own key surfaces end to end, from concept through production.
• Write elegant, well-tested code — we have a real test suite and we intend to keep it that way.
• Work across the stack. Follow a feature from the interface through the API to the database.
• No handoffs, no waiting on another team.
• Work AI-first with Cursor and Claude Code.
• Use LLMs as your starting point. Draft intent, explore implementations, scaffold components, and refactor with AI in the loop.
• Prototype fast and validate with real users.
• Build and test quickly with real patients and care teams.
• Use what you learn to refine before fully committing — especially in sensitive clinical contexts where getting it right matters.
• Build for scale and own the codebase.
• Translate product needs into reusable, well-architected patterns that make the next feature faster to ship.
• Make automation legible and trustworthy.
• Build systems that clearly communicate what AI and automation are doing on behalf of patients and providers.
• Earn trust through transparency, reliability, and thoughtful defaults.
• Champion performance, accessibility, and reliability.
• Ship work that is fast, robust, and accessible.
• Partner across the team to debug, optimize, and raise the bar over time.
• Share AI-native workflows.
• Document prompts, patterns, and workflows that work, so we move faster together without cutting corners that matter to patient outcomes.
