What are the responsibilities and job description for the Staff Backend Engineer position at Commure?
At Commure, we're building the AI Operating System for healthcare, the foundation that defines how care is delivered, documented, and financed. Our platform spans the full care journey: Ambient AI and Dictation eliminating documentation burden at the point of care, intelligent Agents automating patient and revenue workflows, and autonomous RCM processing billions in claims, all on a single AI-native platform integrated with 60 EHRs.
Healthcare carries a $1 trillion administrative burden and we're at the center of transforming it. Today, 500,000 clinicians across 500 healthcare organizations nationwide trust Commure to handle $25B in annual claims and support over 200 million patient interactions. Our latest $70M raise at a $7B valuation reflects the confidence the market has placed in this mission.
Our team works directly alongside clinicians, not through layers of process, which means the gap between what you build and its impact on patient care is immediate. We move fast, deploy daily, and take full ownership from early thinking to production. If you're energized by hard problems, high stakes, and a team that holds itself to a high bar, you'll find your people here.
The future of healthcare is being built right now. Come deliver this transformation.
About The Role
At Commure, our engineering team is at the forefront of revolutionizing healthcare technology by building and scaling the systems powering our suite of healthcare products. We are looking for a talented Staff Backend Engineer to help us craft user-friendly, responsive, and secure interfaces that operate reliably at scale and enhance the healthcare experience for both providers and patients. If you are a builder and love working on important, exciting problems in healthcare and love shipping quickly, come join us!
What You’ll Do
Employees will act in accordance with the organization’s information security policies, to include but not limited to protecting assets from unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, destruction or interference nor execute particular security processes or activities. Employees will report to the information security office any confirmed or potential events or other risks to the organization. Employees will be required to attest to these requirements upon hire and on an annual basis.
Compensation Range: $200K - $250K
