Software Engineer (Backend/Data) - Remote

Overview

Fathom is on a mission to use AI to understand and structure the world’s medical data, starting by making sense of the terabytes of clinician notes contained within the electronic health records of the world’s largest health systems. Our deep learning engine automates the translation of patient records into the billing codes used for healthcare provider reimbursement, a process today that costs hospitals in the US $15B+ annually and tens of billions more in errors and denied claims. We are a venture-backed company that completed a Series B round of financing for $46M in late 2022.

We are looking for a Software Engineer (Backend/Data) to work on data products that drive the core of our business. We want to work with teammates based in the San Francisco Bay area, who are excited about learning how to build and support machine learning pipelines that scale not just computationally, but in ways that are flexible, iterative, and geared for collaboration. If you’d like to become a backend expert who can unify data, and build systems that scale for both operations and organization, then Fathom is your next big opportunity!
