Description For Founding AI Engineer

Gyde Health is revolutionizing the insurance brokerage industry by building an AI-native brokerage platform. The company acquires traditional agencies and enhances them with cutting-edge workflow automation, voice and chat AI applications, and predictive product selection guidance.

As the Founding AI Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in developing key applications within Gyde's platform. The position involves leading the development of AI-driven applications encompassing voice, chat, personalization, and real-time analytics to drive growth and automation across acquired agencies. You'll work directly with the COO on AI-driven workflows and collaborate with the Product team on roadmap prioritization.

The role requires a strong background in engineering leadership and AI/ML product development, with 3+ years of engineering leadership experience and 1+ years building AI/ML products at scale. You'll be responsible for developing applications using LLMs, implementing HIPAA-compliant solutions, and integrating with third-party systems like AgencyBloc, Sunfire, and HealthSherpa.

The ideal candidate brings strong product sense, passion for AI innovation, and high degree of ownership. While experience in health insurance distribution and HIPAA compliance is preferred, it's not mandatory. The company offers competitive compensation, flexible work arrangements (remote or hybrid in Austin/NYC), comprehensive benefits, and the opportunity to work with a founding team from prestigious companies like Oscar, Spark, and Stripe.

Backed by notable investors including Lightspeed, Virtue, and Crystal Venture Partners, Gyde Health is positioned to transform how insurance brokers operate and scale their businesses. This is an exceptional opportunity for an AI engineer looking to make a significant impact in the healthcare technology space while working with cutting-edge AI applications.
