Who We Are

PathAI's mission is to improve patient outcomes with AI-powered pathology. Our platform promises substantial improvements to the accuracy of diagnosis and the efficacy of treatment of diseases like cancer, leveraging modern approaches in machine learning. Our team, comprising diverse employees with a wide range of backgrounds and experiences, is passionate about solving challenging problems and making a huge impact.

We're looking for skilled and experienced engineers to join our team and help lay the groundwork for our growing software platform. We believe in using the best tool for the job. While we’re always looking to improve, in this role, those tools currently include:

  • Python
  • FastAPI & Django + DRF
  • Docker
  • AWS: EKS, S3, RDS/PostgreSQL, SQS, MSK/Kafka, MQ/RabbitMQ
What You’ll Do 
  • Solve interesting problems with code.
  • Build new features for internal and external users, and refactor existing ones to make them better.
  • Work with a wide range of systems, processes, and technologies to solve problems in sustainable ways. Sometimes you'll be neck-deep in low-level systems, and other times you'll be pairing up with the front-end team on the user interface.
  • Drive the architecture of our application platform, considering the team and our future product roadmap.
  • Collaborate with product, design, front-end, machine learning, and infrastructure teams.
  • Drive and uphold high engineering standards, bringing consistency to the codebases you encounter and ensuring software is adequately reviewed, tested, and integrated.
  • Mentor, learn, and share knowledge with others along the way.
  • Contribute to the development of software as a medical device aiming at improving patient outcomes
What You’ll Need
  • Bachelor of Science (or higher) in Computer Science or equivalent
  • 5+ years of full life cycle backend development experience, preferably in Python
  • Experience and skills in designing and building Python-based applications using frameworks like FastAPI or Django
  • Solid foundation in data structures, algorithms, and object-oriented design
  • An insatiable intellectual curiosity and the ability to learn quickly in a complex space
  • Ability to collaborate with a distributed team and work autonomously on large-scale projects
  • Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, agile environment
  • Experience with cloud platforms (especially AWS); familiarity with infrastructure as code is a plus
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD tools such as GitLab CI is a plus
  • Knowledge of containerization technologies like Docker and orchestration tools like Kubernetes is a plus
  • Prior experience working in a regulated environment (e.g., healthcare, fintech, aerospace) is a plus
We Want to Hear From You

At PathAI, we are looking for individuals who are team players, are willing to do the work no matter how big or small it may be, and who are passionate about everything they do. If this sounds like you, even if you may not match the job description to a tee, we encourage you to apply. You could be exactly what we're looking for. 

PathAI is an equal opportunity employer, dedicated to creating a workplace that is free of harassment and discrimination.
