About The Position

At Atrix, our journey began with a simple belief: Breakthrough medicines and technologies change lives, and the people making them deserve better tools. We often celebrate the final moment: a patient receiving a life-saving therapy or a groundbreaking treatment becoming standard of care. But behind that moment is a complex, coordinated effort that begins years earlier. Pharmaceutical and med device companies shoulder this responsibility every day: Advancing science from lab to clinic Navigating regulatory and access barriers Ensuring safe, evidence-based adoption in the real world They’re not just bringing products to market; they’re shaping the future of care. Yet these organizations are often held back by outdated workflows and siloed data, unable to fully harness the knowledge that already exists across their teams. Atrix was built to change that. We exist to support the mission of those who dedicate their lives to creating and delivering innovations that impact global health. You’ll be a core builder of the Atrix AI-native platform, designing and shipping features that turn complex healthcare and AI workflows into intuitive, elegant interfaces, trusted by scientific, medical, and commercial teams across top pharma companies. From crafting thoughtful front-end UX to building robust backend systems, you’ll help bridge our AI core with real-world customer pain points, working on problems that genuinely move the needle in patient care. We’re building a modular, agentic platform that connects to customer-approved data sources, transforms messy, unstructured data using advanced AI, and delivers structured, actionable insights that drive decisions in regulated environments. You’ll see your work used daily by medical, clinical, and commercial teams making high-stakes decisions. You’ll tackle rich engineering challenges across: Performance — We’re processing large data sets at once Security & Privacy — Customers trust us with sensitive data Explainability — AI outputs must be verifiable and traceable Composable UI/UX — Interfaces need to adapt to varied use cases, from chat to dashboards to spreadsheets You’ll work closely with our Engineering Team and CEO, and collaborate as a peer to product, design, and GTM leadership. As one of our earliest Full Stack Engineers, you’ll help define technical architecture, influence product strategy, and set the tone for future engineering hires. This role is perfect for someone who is customer-obsessed, technically fluent, and thrives in fast-moving startup environments. If you love the challenge of translating AI workflows into intuitive product experiences in a high-stakes industry, we want to talk to you.
