Job Description

Banquet Health is rebuilding the infrastructure that powers nutrition in hospitals, where food is both medicine and logistics. As a seed-stage startup based in SF and NYC, they're backed by leading healthcare investors and are building a cloud-based, user-centered platform that layers in AI-driven workflows to streamline operations, reduce risk, and amplify staff impact. As a Senior/Staff Software Engineer, you'll be joining their early team and will be responsible for building impactful features end-to-end across React, TypeScript, Postgres, and AWS Lambda to improve real workflows for staff and patients.

The compensation for this role ranges from $180K to $220K, with equity ranging from 0.35%-0.5%. With a hybrid work policy, this is a great opportunity to shape the future of healthcare and integrate AI in meaningful ways.
