Principal Software Engineer, AI-Native

Remote-US

We are a healthcare technology company that provides platforms and solutions to improve the management and access of cost-effective pharmacy benefits. Our technology helps enterprise and partnership clients simplify their businesses and helps consumers save on prescriptions.

As a leader in SaaS technology for healthcare, we offer innovative solutions with integrated intelligence on a single enterprise platform that connects the pharmacy ecosystem.  With our expertise and modern, modular platform, our partners use real-time data to transform their business performance and optimize their innovative models in the marketplace.

Position summary

RxSense is becoming an AI native company, and AI is the primary lever behind our next phase of growth.

This is a deeply technical, architect level role. You will sit on the AI Engineering team and set the technical standard the broader engineering organization looks to, leading through example and craft rather than mandate. You will architect and build systems across our stack (C#/.NET, Python, and the occasional TypeScript front end), and you will lead development of our AI evaluation infrastructure, both offline (test suites, golden datasets, and regression harnesses wired into CI/CD) and online (continuous monitoring of live model and system behavior).

Working in this domain is compelling because two things must hold true at once. Our systems need to be correct, since we operate in a regulated, high stakes domain where evaluation and trustworthy behavior matter as much as the features themselves. Our systems also need to be fast, since they run at high volume and low latency, where performance compounds at scale. Much of this role is about helping projects move quickly while staying confident in the products we ship.

You will do this work in an AI forward environment. Our engineers build with modern agentic tooling standardized on Anthropic's Claude, so you will have first class tools for the work ahead.

Responsibilities

  • Architect and build production systems across a multi language stack: C#/.NET services, Python AI and data pipelines, and occasional TypeScript
  • Set the example for an AI forward, high technical standard across the broader engineering organization, leading through craft rather than organization wide authority
  • Design and drive adoption of offline evaluation frameworks (test suites, golden datasets, regression harnesses wired into CI/CD) for LLM based and other non deterministic components
  • Build online evaluation and monitoring that continuously assesses live model and system behavior in production, including drift and regression detection
  • Partner with engineering leadership to surface systemic risks in AI features, such as reliability, correctness, and drift, and drive the fixes
  • Lead architecture reviews for major initiatives and mentor senior and staff engineers on system design, evaluation methodology, and AI forward practices
  • Prototype and ship new AI capabilities

What success looks like

Day to day, you move between writing production code, shaping architecture across teams, and building the evaluation tooling that gives RxSense confidence in its AI systems before and after they ship. 

Qualifications

  • 8+ years of professional software engineering experience, with demonstrated Staff, Principal, or Architect-level scope — e.g., owning system architecture end-to-end, driving technical strategy across multiple teams, or being accountable for critical production systems. We evaluate candidates on the scope and impact of their work rather than years of experience alone; strong candidates with less tenure but clear evidence of this level of ownership are encouraged to apply. 
  • Depth across backend and AI/ML systems, working in some combination of C#/.NET, Python, and TypeScript.
  • Experience with LLM observability, prompt and response evaluation, or agentic system testing
  • A track record of setting technical standards that other engineers and teams adopt.
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to align engineers and leadership around a shared technical direction.
  • Comfort working in an AI forward engineering environment, for example with agentic coding tools such as Claude Code.
  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field preferred. Equivalent practical experience will be considered in lieu of a formal degree. 

Preferred

  • Experience in pharmacy benefits, healthcare, fintech, or another regulated, high stakes domain.
  • Familiarity with distributed systems tooling such as Kafka, gRPC, Grafana, and Dragonfly / Redis.
  • A good eye for clean, usable interfaces for the occasional front end work.

Salary Range- $210,000- $275,000

Race & Ethnicity Definitions

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
