About the Company

Comprehensive dental practice management platform used by clinics to run operations end-to-end—scheduling, patient records, billing, reporting, and marketing automation.


Their mission is to help dental teams operate more efficiently and deliver better patient care through integrated workflows and data-driven insights.


The Opportunity

  • Lead the build of

    greenfield conversational AI

    products—starting with a chatbot automating

    thousands of patient conversations daily

    .
  • Own and scale additional

    agentic AI

    initiatives as the platform expands.


What You’ll Do

  • Lead end-to-end development

    of patient-facing conversational AI (chat + voice), from build to production scale.
  • Define

    architecture and technical strategy

    for LLM/agentic features across the platform.
  • Build

    conversation orchestration

    (LangChain/LlamaIndex or custom), including multi-turn state, context retention, routing, and fallbacks.
  • Optimize

    response quality, latency, and cost

    ; implement evaluation, monitoring, and continuous improvement loops.
  • Design

    guardrails and safety mechanisms

    for healthcare interactions (policy checks, escalation paths, safe prompting).
  • Integrate with dental practice management systems (e.g.,

    Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft

    ) and internal services for real-time workflows.
  • Ship secure, scalable services:

    APIs, authentication/verification (including MFA), data handling, observability, and reliability

    .
  • Mentor engineers, conduct code reviews, raise engineering standards, and partner closely with Product and US stakeholders.


Must-Have

  • 7+ years

    software engineering experience;

    2+ years

    building and deploying AI/ML systems in production.
  • Proven track record shipping products from concept → launch → scale.
  • Hands-on experience building

    LLM applications in production

    (e.g., GPT-4/Claude or equivalent).
  • Strong

    Python

    proficiency; experience with

    LLM frameworks

    (LangChain, LlamaIndex, or similar).
  • Experience with conversational or real-time systems (chatbots, voice assistants, event-driven workflows).
  • Strong backend fundamentals:

    REST APIs

    , webhooks, third-party integrations.
  • Cloud experience (

    AWS/GCP/Azure

    ) and common services (compute, storage, managed databases).
  • Datastore experience for state/context (e.g.,

    PostgreSQL, MongoDB

    ) and session/state management patterns.
  • Practical knowledge of

    RAG

    , prompt engineering, agentic patterns, and model evaluation/monitoring.
  • Ability to work independently, drive execution in ambiguity, and communicate with technical/non-technical stakeholders.


Nice-to-Have

  • Voice AI + telephony integrations (

    Twilio/Vonage

    ) and/or STT/TTS providers (

    Deepgram/ElevenLabs/AssemblyAI

    ).
  • Exposure to healthcare compliance/security practices (HIPAA familiarity).
  • Observability tooling (

    Datadog/New Relic/Sentry

    ).
  • SaaS/B2B experience, multi-tenant architecture, enterprise integrations.
  • Open-source contributions or active involvement in the AI builder community.
