AI in this role
Build the intelligent decision systems and backend logic powering automated healthcare workforce management.
Our Vision: Unlock Healthcare's Full Capacity
Health systems still run critical operations like staffing, labor planning, and capacity on spreadsheets, phone calls, and guesswork.
Vitalize is building the AI operating system for how health systems manage labor and capacity. The impact is real: we save hospitals millions in unnecessary labor spend, give clinical leaders back 10–20 hours every week, and are often the reason staff and leaders stay.
We’re trusted by leading health systems across the country and have raised more than $31M from top healthcare and technology investors, including our own customers..
Our Values
We hire and grow everyone against the same four values. Each one comes from a real Vitalize story—interview with us to hear them!
🚗 Push the Car. Step in regardless of role. We help wherever we're needed, own problems end to end, and don't stay in our lane. People can count on us.
🏥 Premier 1K. We show up for our customers, always. Nearly everyone visits a customer site in their first month, and customer feedback informs everything we do.
🗣️ Run Towards the Ugly. Name the ugliest truth first, then propose the fix. Candor over comfort—we call out what's broken, and never get complacent. This shapes our craft.
💡 Think Bigger Fridays. See the gap, fill it—no permission required. Every decision is an experiment: we run it, let the results decide, and drive real impact from day one.
About Vitalize’s Engineering Team
Every recommendation Vitalize makes flows through this team. We build the intelligence that helps hospitals decide who should float, when to call someone in, when staffing is becoming unsafe, and eventually when the system can safely make those decisions on its own.
This is where Vitalize evolves from software that reports what’s happening into software that actively runs hospital operations.
The Role
Clinical leaders make hundreds of staffing decisions every day under time pressure using disconnected systems. We’re replacing that with software that reasons through the problem, recommends, and eventually executes the best next actions.
You’ll own the decision engine behind those recommendations, turning messy operational reality into software customers trust with some of the most important decisions inside a hospital.
What You’ll Do
Design and build the decision logic behind staffing recommendations, alerts, and workflows
Own systems that balance staffing rules, hospital policies, patient needs, and operational constraints
Partner with our Product Managers, Designers, and other Engineers to build complex software solutions that are easy for our customers to use
Work directly with clinical leaders to understand how staffing decisions are made
Build software that explains why it reached a recommendation so users can trust, validate, or override it
Define where automation ends and human judgment begins, helping Vitalize safely automate more hospital operations over time
Continuously improve the system using customer feedback, production data, and real-world outcomes
What You’ll Bring
Technical expertise—You have expertise with TypeScript
Problem-solving instinct—You instinctively dive into the why
Full-stack experience—You have experience working across the entire tech stack
Systems thinking—You can reason through complicated edge cases
Customer orientation—You’re comfortable working directly with customers to understand problems and rapidly improve the product
Ownership and communication—You communicate clearly and take strong ownership of your work
