Korva | Founding Engineer | New York City | ONSITE

Korva is building the AI-native operating system for health plan administration. Self-funded health plans cover 100M+ Americans, yet TPAs run them on manual processes and legacy software. We're rebuilding that back office with AI agents that automate high-stakes operational workflows. Getting this right matters — millions of Americans' coverage depends on it.

Founded by UC Berkeley alums with deep experience in healthcare data, payer integrations, and provider workflows. Pre-seed, well-funded, NYC-based.

About the Role

This is a broad founding engineer role: you'll design core platform infrastructure from scratch, build and ship AI agents for TPA operations, own systems end-to-end, and at times embed directly with customers to turn operational knowledge into product. You'll work closely with the founders and shape both the roadmap and the engineering culture.

Requirements

We're looking for someone with:

  • 2–5 years of SWE experience
  • Writes clean, reliable code
  • Strong product instincts
  • Uses AI as a core part of their workflow
  • Comfortable in the ambiguity of an early-stage company
  • Interest in healthcare or complex regulated industries is a plus
