Product Engineer

Gaia Family Inc•New York, NY

55d•$110,000 - $150,000•Hybrid

About The Position

Gaia is transforming fertility care to make it more accessible, believing that financial barriers should not prevent people from starting a family. The company is building the technology infrastructure to make fertility treatments available to everyone. The Product Engineer will be instrumental in architecting this infrastructure, which combines fintech and healthcare. The role involves building the Gaia Orchestrator, an internal framework for automating care navigation, financing, clinic operations, and risk tracking. Additionally, the engineer will work on an AI-Native Operations Layer, utilizing LLM-powered agents and scheduled routines, and a Real-time Underwriting Engine for predictive modeling to make fertility care financially accessible. The position also includes crafting member-facing experiences that support individuals during their family-building journey. The technical environment is highly regulated (HIPAA, SOC 2 Type II, PHI), emotionally charged due to the sensitive nature of fertility journeys, financially complex with lending, insurance, and outcome-based pricing, and technically fragmented, requiring robust integrations between disparate healthcare systems. The solutions built will directly impact people's ability to start families.
