Logistics Research Team - Software Engineer (Mid-Level)
Sprinter Health•San Francisco, CA
•Hybrid
About The Position
We’re hiring a Senior Software Engineer to join our Logistics Optimization team, where we tackle some of the hardest algorithmic and operational problems in healthcare. You’ll design systems that balance clinician supply, patient demand, and routing efficiency—essentially the logistics backbone of Sprinter’s in-home care delivery model. This is a deeply technical, high-impact role where you’ll work on problems at the intersection of operations research, simulation, and scalable distributed systems.
Requirements
- 5+ years of software engineering experience with strong backend or full-stack fundamentals
- Proficiency in JavaScript / TypeScript (preferred) and/or Python
- Experience designing or implementing optimization, forecasting, or simulation systems
- Background in operations research, applied math, or quantitative modeling
- Shipped production systems that balance technical complexity and real-world constraints
- Collaborated cross-functionally with product, ops, or data science teams to drive measurable impact
Nice To Haves
- Experience with global optimization techniques or Monte Carlo simulations
- Background in logistics, scheduling, or large-scale routing systems
- Prior work in healthcare or other operationally complex, data-heavy environments
- Experience in 0→1 environments or scaling early-stage technical systems
- You’re motivated by solving real problems that improve access to care
Responsibilities
- Design and implement algorithms that optimize clinician routing, scheduling, and dispatch at national scale
- Build simulations that model demand, capacity, and patient behavior under real-world constraints
- Develop predictive models for cancellations, no-shows, and overbooking optimization
- Collaborate with product and ops teams to translate complex logistics challenges into scalable software systems
- Prototype and productionize forecasting and optimization models in a distributed environment
- Own projects end-to-end—from design to implementation and iteration
Benefits
- Meaningful pre-IPO equity
- Competitive salary aligned with senior engineering levels
- Medical, dental, and vision fully covered for you and your dependents
- Flexible PTO + 10 paid holidays
- 401(k) with company match
- 16-week parental leave (8 weeks for partners)
- HSA / FSA contributions
