Forward Deployed AI Engineer at Sanctuaryhealth

Sanctuaryhealth.io is a profitable, high-growth healthtech startup on a mission to end healthcare scarcity by building agentic AI systems for the clinical front lines. As a Forward Deployed AI Engineer, you won’t just build from a spec; you’ll embed directly within healthcare settings in the UK and US to solve the system's most complex bottlenecks. If you’re a high-agency engineer with TypeScript and LLM expertise who wants to see their code directly translate into faster, more humane patient care, this is the role for you.

Role overview

You will work directly inside healthcare organizations to perform deep technical discovery and build custom AI systems. You'll own the full lifecycle—from scoping and deployment to long-term stability—translating clinical bottlenecks into automated solutions. Your work directly increases healthcare supply by automating administrative burdens like referral management, documentation, and equipment coordination.

Healthcare

Our mission is to make healthcare work for everyone. So far we have been focusing on two areas: first, by building semi-custom AI solutions for healthcare companies that want to benefit from the transformative potential of AI but lack the expertise to implement it themselves, allowing us to solve their most pressing business and clinical problems; and second, by tackling healthcare’s information asymmetry through the creation of a comprehensive library of over 2,000 documents, videos, and audio resources designed to help patients better understand their conditions and engage more effectively with their clinicians.

What you will do

  • Conduct deep technical discovery inside healthcare clinics to identify high-value operational bottlenecks and scope semi-custom AI solutions.
  • Build and deploy production-grade AI agents and systems using TypeScript and React that integrate seamlessly into complex, legacy clinical environments.
  • Own the entire product lifecycle from initial discovery through to long-term stability, while abstracting learnings into scalable capabilities for future deployments.

Who this is a fit for

  • Expertise in TypeScript and React with a proven track record of shipping production-ready applications featuring sophisticated LLM/AI integrations.
  • High agency and "grit"—someone who thrives in ambiguity, works independently with clients, and is willing to travel at short notice to healthcare sites.
  • A "builder and breaker" mentality, driven by a deep desire to fix systemic failures in healthcare through innovative engineering rather than rigid spec-following.

Why this role is remarkable

  • Work on the front lines of healthcare, embedding directly in hospitals to solve real-world problems that directly impact patient care and surgical outcomes.
  • Join a rare "beyond SaaS" model at a profitable startup targeting 3x growth, where you have the agency to build tailored systems rather than forcing generic software.
  • Help pioneer agentic systems in medicine, turning unstructured clinical data into automated workflows for patient flow, reimbursement, and equipment coordination.
