About Medflix - empowering healthcare professionals for better care
Medflix (www.medflix.app/app) is a platform where healthcare professionals (doctors, medical students and more) stay updated through live talks, Q&As, support material and more. Through the platform we believe that these professionals can be empowered to deliver better care to patients (like our families) throughout the globe.
In its current (and evolving) form, it is a live learning and engagement platform seeing tremendous week-on-week growth through stellar speakers and a very active early community. The product is in the growth stages and you will be playing a key role in steering the tech to create a scalable and lovable product experience.
We are backed by startup, VC and PE veterans including Kunal Shah (CEO, Cred), Raghunandan G (Zolve, ex-TFS), Avnish Mehra (Everstone) and more.
Medflix is a platform by PlexusMD (www.plexusmd.com/app), a network trusted and loved (4.4 stars on Playstore and 4.4 on Appstore) by more than 3 lakh doctors in India and working closely with leading healthcare providers and companies like AIIMS, Jaslok, Hinduja, Apollo, HCG, Elsevier, Association of Physicians of India, Indian Association of Cardio-thoracic surgeons, Society of Nuclear Medicine, Govt of Gujarat (HFW Dept), Govt of Haryana (SIFHW), McKinsey and company, Takeda, Mankind and others.
About the Role
Tech stack (expertise in all is not required, experience in some will be sufficient):
- React / Next.js (required, at least 1 year of experience)
- Express.js (required, at least 1 year of experience)
- Familiarity with cloud services (gcp / azure / aws)
- PostgreSQL (or expertise in any relational database)
- Redis
- Docker/Kubernetes deployment (good to have)
For this role we are looking for engineers with an entrepreneurial mindset, an understanding of how startups operate and who like to get their hands dirty when unknown things come their way. You will work closely with the product team to prioritise and ship features with a predictable cadence.
As this role is full-stack, you need to have a good understanding of frontend design and be obsessed with responsiveness and pixel-perfect behaviour. On the backend side, an OCD for efficiency and optimisation is a required personality trait.
Demonstrated history of solving hard problems (frontend/backend or both) is a great-to- have.
Benefits and growth
While we ensure competitive compensation (plus ESOP options for deserving candidates), at Medflix, you will also have a strong say in how final solutions look. You will get the opportunity to learn to steer an accelerating rocket ship.
College credentials, background or years of experience are no bar for growth inside the company for enthusiasts who believe in our mission and demonstrate that passion to create a product that healthcare workers love.

Summary
We are looking for an exceptional AI-native full-stack product engineer who can take product specs, prototypes, or PRDs and turn them into clean, tested, QA’d, merge-ready branches.
We are building a fast-moving software company and currently use AI coding tools heavily in our development workflow. Right now, the delivery process is: prototype review, spec clarification, implementation planning, AI-assisted coding, QA, checking what was actually built, and preparing features for final merge.
We want to have this entire workflow managed by the right engineer.
Your job will be to take a feature brief, PRD, prototype, or Loom walkthrough and own the process from:
Input → clarification → implementation plan → AI-assisted build → self-review → QA → PR → merge-ready branch.
We are looking for someone who can take ownership, not create more management work.
What You’ll Do
You will be responsible for:
- Reviewing PRDs, prototypes, tickets, or Loom walkthroughs
- Asking clear, batched clarification questions
- Creating concise implementation plans before coding
- Using AI coding tools to accelerate development
- Reviewing and improving AI-generated code
- Building full-stack product features
- Writing or updating tests where appropriate
- Running QA before handing work over
- Creating clean, reviewable pull requests
- Documenting what was built, what changed, and what risks remain
- Preparing branches that are actually ready to merge
- Communicating clearly and asynchronously
What “Done” Means
A feature is not done when the code is written. A feature is done when:
- The implementation matches the PRD/prototype
- Acceptance criteria are completed
- Code is clean and understandable
- Build/lint/type checks pass
- Relevant tests are added or updated
- Manual QA has been completed
- Screenshots or Loom walkthrough are provided when relevant
- PR description is clear
- Risks, assumptions, and deviations are documented
- The branch is ready for review/merge
Ideal Candidate
You are probably a strong fit if you are:
- An experienced full-stack engineer with strong product judgment
- Experienced with AI coding tools such as Claude Code
- Comfortable taking a vague product idea and turning it into a working feature
- Able to review AI-generated code critically
- Strong with GitHub PR workflows
- Detail-oriented with good QA discipline
- Clear in written communication
- Comfortable working in a fast-moving startup environment
- Able to work independently without needing constant hand-holding
- Good at asking the right questions early
You Are Not a Fit, please do not apply if:
- You blindly trust AI-generated code
- You need every task broken down into tiny instructions
- You say “done” without testing your work
- You create large messy PRs
- You cannot explain your own code
- You are only comfortable with narrow frontend or backend tasks
- You are not comfortable with ambiguity
- You dislike writing implementation plans or QA notes
- You require constant synchronous direction
Required Skills
Please include your experience with:
- Full-stack web development
- Frontend frameworks
- Backend/API development
- Git/GitHub
- Pull request workflow
- Testing and QA
- AI-assisted coding tools
- Debugging and self-review
- Product-focused software development
- Nice to Have
- Startup experience
- Experience as a founding engineer or product engineer
- Strong UX/product taste
- Experience with automated testing
- Experience with CI/CD
- Experience with preview deployments
- Experience turning Figma/prototypes into production features
- Experience working directly with founders
How We Work
We will usually provide one or more of:
- PRD
- Prototype
- Figma
- Loom walkthrough
- Linear/Jira/Notion ticket
- Product brief
- Screenshots
- Existing codebase
You will be expected to return:
- Clarifying questions, if needed
- Implementation plan
- Branch/PR
- QA notes
- Test results
- Screenshots/Loom if relevant
- Clear summary of what was built
- Any risks, tradeoffs, or unresolved questions
Trial Task
We will start with a paid trial task.
The trial will involve a small real feature or product improvement. You will be asked to:
- Review the brief/prototype
- Write a short implementation plan
- Build the feature
- QA it
- Open a clean PR
- Provide a Loom or written walkthrough
- Document assumptions, risks, and anything not completed
We are not just evaluating whether the code works. We are evaluating whether you can own the delivery process end-to-end and how well you leverage AI.
What Success Looks Like
Success means the team can give you a PRD or prototype and receive back a merge-ready branch without needing to manage every step.
Great output looks like:
“I reviewed the feature brief, found two ambiguities, made reasonable assumptions, implemented the core flow, added tests, QA’d happy path and edge cases, documented one tradeoff, and the branch is ready for review. Management's input is only needed on this one product decision.”
Preference will be given to candidates who can work with high ownership and potentially become a long-term product engineering partner.
To Apply, please consider answering the following questions:
- What AI coding tools do you use regularly, and how do you use them?
- Walk us through your process for turning a PRD or prototype into a merge-ready branch.
- How do you QA your own work before asking for review?
- What are the biggest risks of AI-generated code?
- Share an example of a PR, project, or product feature you built that you are proud of.
- What stack are you strongest in?
- Are you comfortable doing a paid trial task?
- What does “merge-ready” mean to you?
