Our mission is to bring the joy back to running a private practice - we’re building an AI powered financial operating system that simplifies financial operations, so providers can do what they do best: focus on patient care.
The healthcare payment system is a complex and inefficient maze - healthcare practices leave $125 billion in revenue uncollected each year, lost in the chaos of fragmented financial data, manual workflows, and opaque payer systems. This financial uncertainty leaves practices struggling to stay afloat, while valuable revenue slips through the cracks.
Joyful Health is building the AI-powered financial operating system for healthcare practices. Our mission is to bring the joy back to running a private practice by simplifying financial operations so providers can focus on patient care. We spent 10 months working as fractional CFOs for a dozen practices, doing this work side by side with providers as we developed our product.
We just closed a funding round led by world-class investors and angels including the founders of MongoDB & KAYAK.
<aside> 🚀 We have an enormous opportunity in front of us. The broken healthcare payment ecosystem impacts practices of all sizes, and the opportunity to make a real difference is massive.
If you’re passionate about empowering medical practices and excited to tackle one of the most important (& challenging!) problems in healthcare, we’d love to meet you.

We’re looking for a highly-skilled and ambitious full-stack engineer who’s excited about reimagining what healthcare technology can look like. Healthcare software has historically been outdated, manual, and complex to use. We’re building AI-powered tools that redefine the user experience for providers, helping them run their practices with ease and delivering delightful, intuitive design that truly serves their needs.
In this role, you’ll help build the “face” of our AI platform—creating an experience that’s not only intelligent but also deeply user-friendly. Providers didn’t go to business school, they went to medical school, so the technology they use to manage their practices needs to be built specifically with their needs in mind. We achieve this through thoughtful UX that contextualizes complex financial data, and by automating traditionally manual financial operations so they’re only looped in when they need to be.
As a founding engineer, you’ll play a key role in shaping Joyful Health’s technology platform and defining our engineering culture. You'll be responsible for the full software development lifecycle, from writing code to testing and deploying production-ready features. You should be comfortable (and excited!) about working in a fast-paced, early-stage startup environment where you'll be able to wear many hats and take on new challenges as they arise. You’ll work closely with the co-founders to execute our product roadmap and have the chance to make a lasting impact on the future of healthcare technology.
This role is full-time. We’re looking for candidates based in NYC.
