ABOUT ABBY CARE: POWERING THE FUTURE OF CARE AT HOME FOR ALL OF AMERICA.

Abby Care is building the leading AI-native platform for family-led care. America is facing a growing care crisis. Millions more people need care at home than ever. Over 50 million family caregivers support loved ones without the tools, training, or recognition they deserve.

We believe families are the largest untapped caregiving workforce in America, and that technology can help them deliver better care while driving stronger outcomes and greater transparency across the healthcare system.

Abby Care combines clinical oversight with an AI-powered platform to train, enable, and support family caregivers in delivering high-quality care at home. Our platform helps health plans and government partners better understand, verify, and improve care in the home. We expand access to care, reduce reliance on higher-cost settings, and help ensure public dollars are spent effectively.

We are proud to partner with leading health plans, providers, and community organizations and are backed by top VCs. We envision a future where family-led care is a core part of the healthcare system. Abby Care is building that future.

Join us in solving one of the most important challenges of our time.

THE OPPORTUNITY

As we expand our capacity to support more family caregivers at scale, we’re looking for an Applied AI Engineer to build AI-powered products and workflow automation that help caregivers, clinicians, and operational teams deliver better care.

You will contribute across the development lifecycle: understanding the underlying workflow, prototyping solutions, preparing datasets, building evaluations, implementing production systems, and learning from real-world usage.

Curious and highly resourceful, you are excited by both emerging AI capabilities and rigorous software engineering. You want to move beyond demos and build systems that are reliable, observable, and useful in consequential workflows. If you are excited to grow as an Applied AI engineer while helping transform how care is delivered in the home, we’d love to hear from you!

This is a Full-Time Hybrid opportunity based in San Francisco.
