Full Job Description
About Sprinter Health: At Sprinter Health, our mission is reimagining how people access care by bringing it directly to their homes. Nearly 30% of patients in the U.S. skip preventive or chronic care simply because they can’t get to a doctor’s office. For many, the ER becomes their first touchpoint with the healthcare system—driving over $300B in avoidable costs every year. By using the same technologies that power leading marketplace and last-mile platforms, we deliver care where people are, especially those who need it most. So far, we’ve supported more than 2 million patients across 22 states, completed 130,000+ in-home visits, and maintained a 92 NPS. Our team of clinicians, technologists, and operators have raised over $125M to date with investors like a16z, General Catalyst, GV, and Accel and enjoy a multi-year runway. About the Role 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. Office Location We are a hybrid company based in the Bay Area with offices in both San Francisco and Menlo Park. We care about work-life balance and understand that there will be times where flexibility is needed. What will you do: - 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 sys
