Join Sevah

We're building the companion every resident deserves.

Millions of seniors live in care facilities. Between visits, they wait alone. We're building something that listens, empathizes, and keeps them connected — and we need people who think that matters.

The moment

AI just got good enough. Eldercare hasn't changed in 30 years.

Large language models can now hold natural conversations. Voice synthesis sounds human. Computer vision can detect a fall in real time. The technology is ready.

Meanwhile, skilled nursing facilities are drowning. Staff shortages, documentation burden, resident isolation, family disconnection. The system was designed for a different era.

We're building something that could matter to millions. If you want to shape it, this is the window.

What we value

How we work

Ship, then iterate

We’d rather have something real in a resident’s room than a perfect prototype in a lab. Speed with integrity.

Clinical rigor

This isn’t a consumer toy. Lives depend on what we build. Every feature is validated, every note is nurse-signed, every alert is earned.

Unusual backgrounds welcome

The best ideas come from people who’ve actually worked the floor, built hardware at 3am, or spent years watching a parent age in care. Bring your context.

Open roles

We're hiring people who want to build, not just work.

Head of AI

The intelligence behind every interaction defines whether this works or not. This is the role that makes or breaks Sevah.

What you'll shape

  • Conversational AI architecture and personality modeling
  • Clinical NLP — turning conversations into structured SOAP notes
  • Predictive health models for early intervention
  • Voice and sentiment analysis for wellness monitoring

Founding Product Lead

The product is the mission. Every interaction, every word Companion speaks, every update a family reads — it all matters.

What you'll shape

  • Product strategy and roadmap for residents, staff, and families
  • Companion conversation design and personality
  • User research with nurses, residents, and family members
  • Prioritization across clinical, operational, and consumer surfaces

VP of Clinical Operations

We need someone who understands how care facilities actually run — the workflows, the regulations, the politics.

What you'll shape

  • Clinical deployment strategy and facility onboarding
  • Regulatory compliance — HIPAA, state survey readiness, CMS standards
  • Nursing workflow integration and change management
  • Outcome measurement and clinical validation

Founding Software Engineer

We need someone who can own the full stack — from real-time clinical dashboards to the cloud infrastructure behind them.

What you'll shape

  • Device-to-cloud architecture and real-time data flow
  • Clinical data pipelines and HIPAA-compliant infrastructure
  • Web and mobile surfaces for staff and families
  • Deployment automation for facility rollouts

Founding Hardware Engineer

The Companion is a physical device in a real room. Someone has to make it reliable, manufacturable, and worthy of a bedside.

What you'll shape

  • Embedded systems design and firmware development
  • Sensor integration — microphones, cameras, ambient sensors
  • Industrial design collaboration and enclosure engineering
  • Manufacturing pipeline from prototype to production

ML Engineer — Speech & NLP

Companion’s core loop is listening and responding. The quality of that conversation is everything.

What you'll shape

  • Speech-to-text and text-to-speech pipeline optimization
  • Conversational AI fine-tuning for elderly speech patterns
  • Real-time sentiment and distress detection
  • Multilingual support for diverse resident populations

Computer Vision Engineer

Companion sees the room. Fall detection, gait analysis, and behavioral monitoring depend on what it can observe.

What you'll shape

  • Real-time fall detection and alert systems
  • Gait and mobility analysis for early intervention
  • Privacy-preserving vision — no recordings, only structured events
  • Edge inference optimization for on-device processing

DevOps / Infrastructure Engineer

Hundreds of devices across dozens of facilities need to be monitored, updated, and kept running 24/7.

What you'll shape

  • Fleet management and over-the-air update systems
  • Monitoring and alerting across distributed devices
  • HIPAA-compliant cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP)
  • CI/CD pipelines and release engineering

Mobile Engineer (React Native)

Families and nurses need a mobile experience that’s fast, reliable, and simple enough for a 70-year-old to use.

What you'll shape

  • Family-facing mobile app for daily updates and communication
  • Staff-facing mobile dashboard for alerts and documentation
  • Push notifications and real-time event delivery
  • Offline-first architecture for spotty facility WiFi

Registered Nurses — Clinical Advisors

AI needs clinical intuition it can’t learn from data alone. You’ll teach it what matters.

What you'll shape

  • How Sevah interprets patient responses and body language
  • Clinical escalation thresholds — when to alert vs. when to log
  • SOAP note quality, format, and accuracy
  • Care protocol design for different acuity levels

Clinical Data Analyst

Every facility wants proof that Sevah works. Someone needs to find the signal in the data and tell the story.

What you'll shape

  • Outcome measurement — falls, readmissions, engagement metrics
  • Facility-level reporting and benchmarking dashboards
  • Clinical study design for pilot evaluations
  • Data pipeline development for longitudinal health tracking

Product Designer

Our users range from 25-year-old nurses to 90-year-old residents. The interface has to work for all of them.

What you'll shape

  • Companion UI/UX for bedside interactions
  • Family app design — daily updates, messaging, wellness trends
  • Staff dashboard for alerts, notes review, and shift handoffs
  • Accessibility-first design for vision, hearing, and motor impairments

Industrial Designer

Companion lives on a bedside table. It needs to feel warm, approachable, and invisible when it should be.

What you'll shape

  • Device form factor and material selection
  • User-centered design for elderly interactions — tactile, visual, auditory
  • Prototyping and user testing in care facility environments
  • Design for manufacturing at scale

Head of Sales

Selling into skilled nursing facilities is a specific skill. You need to know the buyer, the budget cycle, and the objections.

What you'll shape

  • Enterprise sales strategy for SNFs and senior living chains
  • Pilot-to-contract conversion playbook
  • Pricing and packaging for per-room SaaS model
  • Relationship building with administrators and regional operators

Customer Success Manager

A pilot only works if the facility feels supported. You’re the reason they renew.

What you'll shape

  • Facility onboarding and staff training programs
  • Ongoing relationship management with administrators and DONs
  • Usage analytics and proactive intervention for low-adoption units
  • Feedback collection and product improvement loops

Content & Growth Marketing

The families and nurses who need Sevah don’t know it exists yet. Your job is to change that.

What you'll shape

  • Content strategy for families, nurses, and facility operators
  • SEO and organic growth for stakeholder landing pages
  • Social media and community building in eldercare spaces
  • Case study development from pilot outcomes

Don't see your role?

We want to hear from you anyway. Tell us what you'd build, what you'd fix, or what you think we're getting wrong. The best conversations start with honest criticism.

No resume required. Just tell us what interests you about eldercare and AI.

The interview goes both ways. Come critique the product. We'll learn from you either way.
