Olli Health | Remote (US/CA) w/ Quarterly Travel | Full-Time | ollihealth.ai

Hi HN -

Several of our critical founding hires came through this forum, and we currently have 3 open roles!

Olli Health

Built by home health experts and seasoned product managers and engineers from Amazon, Google, Cohere Health, and Arrive Health, Olli Health streamlines ICD-10 coding and in-home documentation with industry-leading speed and accuracy, freeing nurses to focus on patients while helping agencies maximize revenue, reduce compliance risk, and scale efficiently.

We’re backed by top healthtech and AI-focused VCs (Cannage Capital, Arkitekt Ventures, and Tau Ventures) and Olli Health was recently profiled in Home Health Care News (https://homehealthcarenews.com/2025/11/home-health-ai-platfo..., Post-Acute Care's leading publication).

We are motivated by the opportunity for impact, and driven to ensure that our parents, friends, (and ourselves!) will continue to have access to quality healthcare in the home.

Roles

Senior AI Engineer | $180k-220k: Own end-to-end LLM product surfaces in a clinical/HIPAA environment, running rigorous evals and experiments across prompts, retrieval, and agents while shipping fast with strong Python chops and NLP fundamentals.

Senior Software Engineer, Scribe & Integrations | $160k-190k: Ship production React Native apps with strong TypeScript/PostgreSQL chops to own the full stack end-to-end, wrangling messy EHR data integrations and turning fuzzy clinical workflows into fast-shipped, observable features.

Senior Software Engineer, Platform | $160k-190k: Stack - Python (FastAPI/Django/Flask), React, PostgreSQL, and AWS to own platform architecture and IC delivery on a small team while mentoring engineers and setting the quality bar across a fast-moving healthcare codebase.

Requirements for all roles: 5+ YoE | Startup experience | Auth to work in US

Updated to reflect our strong preference for US/CA. We have made exceptions in the past.

Since there are comments about this above, I want to highlight that we've hired successfully on HN for several roles for our current small team. We hired 1 of 2 roles last month, and are still looking for a candidate for this role, which is why I'm posting here again.

Big fan of innovation in this space, so glad you're working on this. I remember coming across Beeminder some time ago, and liking the idea, but not actually pulling the trigger on trying it out. I wonder if it has to do with some cognitive dissonance around the financial commitment device. We want to think of ourselves as having some semblance of self-control & an ability to stick to previously defined goals, but opting in to a system that punishes you for failure forces you to come to terms with the fact that you don't in fact trust yourself.

I have no doubt this works for some people, but there's something missing for me. Maybe it's just that I prefer positive reinforcement.

Out of curiosity, how will you differentiate from Beeminder? Is it the social pot that you suspect makes this dynamic more powerful?

I fully agree, and have the same need, in fact as I use gCal/goals frequently (which conveniently integrate with gFit), and end up having to double-mark currently.

It seems like Google's APIs for tasks/keep/goals, etc are in flux right now, which is not ideal, but I will be looking into an integration to remove that redundancy.

Your project sounds very interesting, and feature packed. Will it be open source, commercial, both? Thanks for sharing your insights on the agent interface, I've found that I (unexpectedly) use the messenger bot frequently for simple 'task completed' functionality and others.

Is there anything public on the web about your project at this point?

Comment · 9 years ago
Not at present. I chose GCP/GAE because I know it well, and there's some convenience when integrating with other google cloud services (like BigQuery, gSheets/gCal, etc).

All data is exportable from the reports page. Looks like I fail to mention that in the about text, I'll add it there.

Yep, it's a web application.

A number of people have commented that Google login only is a barrier, so will definitely be adding another signup method.

The source is on GH with instructions to spin up your own instance if you prefer.
