Job Description
Head of Engineering
About Us
At Sully.ai http://Sully.ai, We’re Building the Most Impactful Healthcare Company on Earth
We believe that access to a great doctor is a basic human right. Today, that’s not a reality. Delays, misdiagnoses, administrative chaos, and burnout plague the system.
Our Mission: One Human, One Doctor. We build AI teammates that augment clinicians — scribes, nurses, receptionists, translators — all powered by our own world-class models and deployed in real-world care.
ABOUT THE ROLE
- We are hiring multiple Heads of Engineering to own and scale core product domains: Consultant, Integrations, Mobile, and Platform. Each role has full technical and execution ownership for its surface area.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- • End-to-end engineering execution: architecture → roadmap → delivery → reliability
• Step-function performance improvements — targeting 50%+ latency cuts across AI workflows
• Observability, metrics, and model-selection systems that hold up at scale
• Engineering rituals that keep teams shipping: standups, backlog ownership (Linear), cross-functional coordination
• Translating product goals into clear plans, timelines, and unblocked teams
• Continuous quality pipelines: accuracy, completeness, reliability of every output
• Engineering bar across the stack: code quality, reviews, on-call, operational rigor
HARD REQUIREMENTS
- • You've built something from zero and shipped it: founder, founding engineer, or first technical hire at a company that actually mattered to you
• You've led people (even a small team) and made them better, not just managed them
• You thrive in high-intensity, early-stage environments, YC, seed-stage, zero-to-one — where speed and judgment are the whole game
• Ambiguity is your operating system. Incomplete direction → clear technical plan → shipped product. No heavy process needed.
• You default to leverage and simplicity: durable solutions, sharp instinct for when to optimize vs. when to ship
• You still write code. This is a player-coach role, not a meetings role.
KEY RESULTS (FIRST 90 DAYS)
- Take full ownership of the assigned engineering domain.
- Ensure end-to-end observability and alerting for core workflows.
- Define the domain's key performance, reliability, and quality metrics.
- Identify and ship at least one high-impact improvement.
- Establish execution cadence, priorities, and quality standards.
