About Pelago Engineering:
Our engineering team is composed of empowered, outcome-focused problem solvers, collaborating closely with product, design, and clinical teams to significantly improve member outcomes at scale.
As artificial intelligence reshapes software development, we are purposefully transforming our development lifecycle to minimize time spent on mechanical tasks and maximize focus on system design, judgment, and impactful results.
How We Work:
- Outcome-oriented: Engineers are entrusted with solving real problems rather than merely building features. Success is evaluated based on learning, impact, and outcomes, not just speed.
- AI-driven: We integrate AI throughout the software development lifecycle (SDLC) to expedite implementation, testing, and review. Engineers devote their efforts to defining intent, validating behavior, and designing robust systems.
- High autonomy and accountability: Teams hold genuine ownership over their domains, combining autonomy with responsibility for quality, safety, and results.
- Cross-functional collaboration: Engineers work closely with Product, Design, Data, and Clinical teams. Discovery, experimentation, and delivery responsibilities are collectively shared.
- Quality and safety are paramount: We operate in a regulated domain that impacts our members. Reliability, observability, and correctness are key priorities.
What You’ll Do:
Rather than traditional task lists, you will embrace ownership:
- Manage significant problem areas from discovery through delivery and iterative improvement.
- Design and build scalable AI solutions that enhance user experiences.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to define project requirements and ensure alignment with organizational goals.
- Contribute to the continuous improvement of development processes and practices.
