[Remote] Engineering Manager — AI-First Platform & Agent Teams
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. LumiMeds is a fast-growing U.S.-based telehealth startup focused on weight management and long-term metabolic health. They are seeking an Engineering Manager to lead a team of full-stack engineers while also engaging in hands-on coding and designing AI-native engineering systems. The role emphasizes building high-performing teams and orchestrating Claude agent pipelines to enhance engineering output.ResponsibilitiesLead and grow a high-performing engineering team. Hire, onboard, coach, and develop 4–8 engineers. Set clear expectations, give direct feedback, and build a culture where velocity and quality are not in tensionDesign and operate Claude agent teams. Architect agent pipelines using the Claude Agent SDK to parallelize engineering work at scale — parallel feature development, automated test coverage, documentation generation, code review passes, and spec-to-implementation workflows. You know how to define subagent roles, manage inter-agent context handoffs, validate outputs, and escalate to human judgment at the right momentsStay in the code. You are a working engineer. You write production code, review PRs with technical depth, debug hard problems, and pair with engineers on the work that needs a senior eye. AI augments your output — it does not replace your technical judgmentSet the AI velocity standard. Define how the team uses AI tooling — Cursor, Claude Code, agent pipelines — and push the frontier. You have strong, specific opinions about how to prompt effectively, which tasks to delegate to agents, and how to verify agent output before it shipsOwn delivery end to end. Run sprint planning, resolve blockers, manage dependencies across product, clinical, and infrastructure. You own outcomes — not just processWrite tickets AI agents can execute. Your specs are precise, structured, and unambiguous — acceptance criteria, edge cases, API contracts, all present. Claude Code or a junior engineer can run with them without a sync. Your specs don't loopBuild and own consumer app and e-commerce systems. You've shipped full-stack consumer products end to end — mobile-backed apps, e-commerce storefronts, subscription billing, checkout flows. You understand high-conversion funnel architecture and have built or owned user behavior tracking infrastructure: event schemas, analytics pipelines, conversion funnels, retention dashboards. This is not adjacent to the role — it is the roleBuild and own A/B testing infrastructure. Design and maintain the experimentation platform that powers product decisions — feature flags, experiment assignment, statistical significance tracking, and results dashboards. You've built this before for high-traffic web products. You understand holdout groups, novelty effects, and how to run clean experiments across checkout flows, onboarding, and clinical intakeBuild the systems that make the team scale. Engineering standards, PR review norms, deployment practices, observability, incident response. You build the scaffolding once so the team doesn't rebuild it repeatedlyCollaborate cross-functionally. Partner with Product, Clinical, and Ops to translate requirements into engineering reality. You are the technical voice in roadmap conversations — not a scheduler, but a decision-makerSkills6+ years of software engineering experience, including 2+ years in a lead or management roleHands-on experience with Node.js / TypeScript backends and Next.js / React frontends — you can read, write, and review production code at a senior levelStrong database fundamentals: PostgreSQL (schema design, migrations, query optimization), RedisDemonstrated experience building and orchestrating multi-agent pipelines — decomposing tasks, defining subagent roles, managing context handoffs, validating agent outputProduction experience integrating LLMs into real systems — streaming, tool use, structured outputs, prompt engineeringDaily use of Claude Code, Cursor, or equivalent. You have built workflows around these tools, not just used them ad hocProven experience designing and building web A/B testing platforms from the ground up — not just using third-party tools, but owning the infrastructureDeep understanding of experiment design: randomization, assignment consistency, statistical power, holdout groups, and avoiding novelty biasExperience running experiments across high-traffic consumer funnels (checkout, onboarding, pricing, landing pages)Hands-on experience building consumer apps and e-commerce platforms end to end — storefronts, checkout, subscriptions, billingBuilt user behavior tracking infrastructure: event schemas, analytics pipelines, conversion funnels, retention analysisExperience running engineering sprints, managing dependencies, and owning delivery timelinesAbility to write engineering specs that AI coding agents and engineers can execute with minimal back-and-forthFamiliarity with AWS (EC2, RDS, Lambda, S3), Vercel, GitHub Actions, and CI/CD pipelinesWorking knowledge of HIPAA/SOC2 requirements — you understand how compliance shapes architecture decisionsFluent written and spoken English — all team communication is async in English (Slack, PRs, specs, docs)Experience in telehealth, DTC health, or a regulated healthcare environmentYou've built an internal agent framework or tooling layer that other engineers on your team usedShipped a consumer mobile app with measurable retention and a backend you ownedBackground in distributed systems or real-time infrastructure (WebRTC, event-driven architectures)You've written a post, given a talk, or built something in public about AI-augmented engineeringCompany OverviewLumiMeds is a telehealth platform dedicated to providing patients with long-term, affordable health care.
