About The Role

We're seeking a Senior Conversational AI Designer to lead the development of healthcare conversational agents that serve patients, providers, and healthcare organizations. This is a hands-on role where you'll spend 40% of your time crafting and optimizing prompts while building expertise in healthcare workflows, conversation design, and AI product strategy.

You'll be our first line of defense for conversation quality, working directly with healthcare clients to understand their workflows, then translating those into scalable, reusable bot templates. As our platform grows, you'll identify patterns that enable us to move from custom implementations to productized solutions.

What You'll Do

Core Prompt Engineering & Conversation Design (40% )

  • Design and optimize prompts for healthcare Q&A bots, virtual companions, health screening agents, and appointment conversion bots
  • Create conversation flows that handle complex healthcare scenarios including policy-specific questions, medical hardship support, and patient engagement
  • Continuously iterate on prompts based on real patient interactions, testing data, and feedback loops
  • Build reusable prompt libraries and conversation templates that maintain quality while enabling customization

Healthcare Domain & Client Learning

  • Interview nurses, doctors, and healthcare staff to understand real-world workflows and conversation patterns
  • Learn client-specific policies, procedures, and terminology to create accurate, compliant conversational experiences
  • Design realistic test scenarios that reflect actual patient interactions and edge cases
  • Call healthcare provider offices to research and improve conversational quality and authenticity

Product Development & Pattern Recognition

  • Collaborate with engineering to implement multi-agent architectures with technical support
  • Identify opportunities to productize repeatable workflows, reducing custom development overhead
  • Scope down complex client requirements into lean MVPs that can be launched and iterated
  • Test end-to-end patient experiences for new AI features, models, and platform capabilities
  • Serve as primary user of our internal AI agent platform, providing insights that inform product roadmap

Quality Assurance & Testing

  • Design and execute comprehensive test scenarios for prompt quality, conversation flow, and user experience
  • Conduct user acceptance testing for new conversational AI features and model deployments
  • Develop testing frameworks that ensure consistent conversation quality across different healthcare use cases

What You Bring

Required Experience

  • 3-5 years of experience in conversational AI, prompt engineering, linguistics, or related field
  • Advanced experience with ChatGPT, Claude, or similar LLM tools, including custom prompt development
  • Strong analytical and pattern recognition skills, with ability to identify scalable solutions from custom implementations
  • Experience designing conversation flows, dialogue systems, or user experience for complex workflows
  • Proven ability to learn new domains quickly and translate business requirements into technical solutions

Preferred Qualifications

  • Background in analytical linguistics, computational linguistics, or cognitive science
  • Experience in healthcare technology, medical terminology, or patient-facing applications
  • Familiarity with AI/ML concepts including prompt engineering techniques, RAG, fine-tuning, or model evaluation
  • Experience with product management methodologies, lean startup principles, or MVP development
  • Track record of working with clients or stakeholders to gather requirements and scope projects

Personal Qualities

  • Pragmatic problem-solver who thrives in ambiguous, fast-paced startup environments
  • Strong communication skills with ability to synthesize complex information from subject matter experts
  • Detail-oriented with commitment to conversation quality and patient safety
  • Curious about emerging AI technologies and comfortable with iterative development

Growth Opportunities

This role offers significant growth potential as our platform and client base expand. You'll have opportunities to:

  • Develop deep healthcare domain expertise while building cutting-edge AI products
  • Evolve into AI product strategy and platform architecture as the team scales
  • Lead conversation quality standards across multiple healthcare verticals
  • Shape the future of AI-powered patient engagement and healthcare workflows

Location & Team

  • North American time zones preferred, with 4 hours overlap with Eastern Time
  • Small, collaborative team environment where your work directly impacts patient experiences
  • Work closely with the GM, Agent Platform and Product who somehow convinced therapists to teach her about patient communication (they're probably regretting it). Obsessed with measuring whether AI can actually be funny AND helpful. Builds modular systems because apparently even empathy needs to scale.

Note that compensation will vary based on level and years of experience.

We're building the future of healthcare AI, one conversation at a time. If you're excited about combining linguistic expertise with healthcare impact, we'd love to hear from you.

Salary : $75,000 - $130,000
