What are the responsibilities and job description for the Full Stack Product Engineer position at Pear VC?
About Us
BridgeHealthAI partners with Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and community organizations to ensure every patient gets the care and benefits they deserve—without drowning care teams in paperwork.
Our platform supercharges care coordination by automating high-friction tasks such as outreach, insurance verification, eligibility checks, follow-ups, and referrals. With modern AI cloud infrastructure, we turn hours of manual effort into seconds, helping teams close care gaps faster, protect revenue streams, and stay focused on patients.
Born out of Harvard and MIT and backed by Pear VC, Flare Capital, and Glen Tullman, BridgeHealthAI is a fast-growing, seed-stage company trusted by leading clinics. We are purpose-built for the safety net, helping clinics scale access, reduce burnout, and deliver equitable care for the 30M patients served by FQHCs each year.
Our Mission Is Simple
Eradicate health disparities by empowering the teams who care for underserved families.
The Role
We’re looking for a full-stack product engineer who thrives in an early-stage environment and loves turning ideas into intuitive, production-ready software. You’ll work closely with the founding engineering and product teams to design and ship features that blend modern full-stack development with applied AI — automating real workflows and simplifying complex decisions for care teams.
This role combines creativity, technical depth, and user empathy. You’ll own features end-to-end: architecting backend systems, building thoughtful interfaces, and iterating based on real user feedback. Every line of code you write will go live fast, impact healthcare delivery directly, and shape how thousands of people experience our platform.
It’s a rare opportunity to join a seed-stage company with paying customers and rapid growth, where you’ll collaborate closely with founders, influence architecture and product direction, and build AI-powered tools that make healthcare more human, accessible, and efficient.
