About this job
About Leap
Leap is one of the fastest-growing benefits solutions and a category-defining pioneer in employer specialty pharmacy. We are reshaping how life-changing therapies are delivered and financed, ensuring patients get the treatment they need while employers finally get a fair deal.
Specialty drugs and infusions represent nearly 10% of all healthcare spend and are the fastest-growing cost category for employers. Leap tackles this challenge with a novel approach: eliminating hidden markups, expanding access to high-quality infusion providers, and bringing clarity and fairness to how therapies are priced and paid for.
We’re proud to partner with numerous Fortune 500 companies and leading TPAs. Each patient we serve creates immediate ROI: lower costs, improved access, and better care. Join us as we redefine what’s possible in specialty care.
About the Role
As a Senior Software Engineer, you will build the AI and automation systems that power Leap’s clinical and business operations. You will own large surface areas across product, data, infrastructure, and automation, helping scale the company’s operational platform as the business grows. This role partners closely with Clinical Operations, Business Operations, and company leadership to identify high-value automation opportunities and ship systems that improve care delivery and internal efficiency. Engineers here have real input into what we build, not just how.
What You'll Do
AI and Automation
Build LLM agents and automation pipelines that replace manual operational workflows
Design and ship AI-driven care orchestration systems that coordinate treatment journeys across patients, providers, pharmacies, and internal teams
Identify high-value automation opportunities by working directly with clinical and business operations teams
Product Development
Own and ship both internal and external products used by clinical teams, growth teams, partners, and customers
Talk to users (often internal teams), instrument what you ship, and use the data to decide what to build next
Platform and Infrastructure
Build and maintain shared services, identity/auth, and HIPAA-compliant data architecture
Ship integrations across CRM and external healthcare systems
Design PHI-safe LLM pipelines, agent orchestration frameworks, evaluation systems, and MCP integrations
What You Bring
5+ years of experience building with AI systems in production (LLM integrations, agents, AI-powered workflows)
TypeScript-native, full-stack generalist comfortable across frontend, backend, data, and infrastructure
Track record of shipping fast with high quality - your code, UI, and documentation hold up without a designer or QA team
Experience building 0-1 at an early stage startup
Use AI heavily in your own development workflow
Bonus Points For
Healthcare or HIPAA experience, data pipelines (BigQuery, ETL), or CRM integrations (Salesforce, HubSpot)
At Leap, we’re building an outlier company with real impact — and that takes focus, energy, and commitment. If that excites you, we’d love to hear from you.
Leap is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applicants from all backgrounds. We’re committed to building a team that reflects a diversity of perspectives, experiences, and identities.
