About Take2 AI

Take2 is an AI agents platform purpose-built for healthcare recruiting. Take2’s agent network automates the end-to-end recruiting process, from sourcing and screening to credential verification, scheduling, and onboarding.

We work with enterprise healthcare customers, including some of the largest health systems in the USA.

About the Role

This is a greenfield moment for Take2. As we scale from thousands to millions of candidate interactions, we’re expanding workflows, evolving our UI systems, and building new AI-powered capabilities for our customers.

We’re hiring a Software Engineer to help define the next generation of our platform, leading major feature initiatives, architecting scalable systems, evolving our frontend foundations, and helping set the technical standards that will carry us from thousands to millions of interactions.

What You’ll Work On

Design and ship new product workflows end-to-end (DB → API → UI)

Build rich, responsive interfaces used across enterprise teams

Help evolve and scale our design system

Improve performance and reliability as we scale from thousands to millions of interactions

Partner closely with product and design to turn ambiguous ideas into elegant shipped solutions

Shape engineering standards, patterns, and technical direction as an early key team member

Why This Role Is Different

High ownership: You’ll influence both what we build and how we build it.

Product exposure: Engineers here shape roadmap decisions — not just implementation details.

Scale inflection point: You’ll help architect systems before and during rapid growth.

Career growth: As the product expands, so does your scope — technical leadership, architecture ownership, or broader product influence.

What We’re Looking For

We care more about impact than pedigree — but here’s what tends to work well:

You likely have

Experience building production software, ideally across the stack, from database design and API contracts through frontend implementation.

Strong frontend depth in React and TypeScript, including architecting complex user interfaces, managing state thoughtfully, and building systems that remain maintainable as the product grows.

Experience designing and consuming APIs, with an understanding of data modeling, performance tradeoffs, and how to structure services for clarity and scalability.

Experience building backend services (Node.js or similar) and making pragmatic architectural decisions as systems scale.

Experience significant product initiatives, working cross-functionally to define scope, make tradeoffs, and deliver high-quality systems in fast-moving environments.

You might also have

Built or evolved a design system

Experience with real-time systems (WebSockets, streaming, voice)

Familiarity with LLM-powered features or AI-driven applications

Experience scaling distributed systems or high-throughput applications

We recognize that strong candidates may not match every qualification listed above. If this role excites you and you believe you could have impact at Take2, we encourage you to apply.

Our Tech stack

TypeScript, React, Node.js, Postgres/MySQL (with evolving AI/real-time components)

What We Value

Builders who ship

Engineers who think like product owners

Clear communicators

Curiosity about AI-native workflows

A bias toward action and iteration

Location & Flexibility

We’re NYC-based and work hybrid (in-office Mon-Thu). We value in-person collaboration but also trust people to manage their time responsibly.

Compensation & Growth

Competitive salary + meaningful equity.

This is a chance to join at a stage where your work meaningfully shapes the product and your career trajectory.
