AI Systems Integration Engineer

About Proscia

Pathology is at the center of medicine and is undergoing a profound transformation as the final frontier of digitization in healthcare. We started Proscia to accelerate pathology’s transition from microscope to images, and to use that AI to change the way we think about cancer. We can’t change medicine alone. That’s why we’re looking for curious thinkers. Big dreamers. Developers, evangelists, pathologists, and scientists. Exceptional talent to help us use the great power of AI for good and advance humankind.

At Proscia, we push the limits of medicine and technology, solving problems the world has never solved before. We build software used by thousands of scientists and pathologists, who work on the front lines of fighting big enemies, like cancer, for patients around the globe. To accelerate our vision, Proscia has raised over $100M in capital from world-class healthcare and technology investors.

About this Position

As an AI Systems Integration Engineer on the AI R&D team, you will bridge the gap between web applications, model APIs, and scalable infrastructure. Your work will ensure smooth, reliable, and efficient interaction between users and the AI systems embedded in our digital pathology platform, enabling data-driven precision medicine at scale.

What You’ll Do

Working at a startup like Proscia means wearing many hats, but when you come to work you can expect to focus on the following:

• Design and implement robust interfaces between vision and language AI models, front-end applications, and backend services.
• Develop and maintain APIs, SDKs, and wrappers to enable seamless integration of AI features into production environments.
• Align data pipelines, inference workflows, and feedback loops for real-time and batch AI use cases.
• Collaborate closely with DevOps, AI engineers, and product managers to coordinate system architecture and deployment strategies.
• Write clean, maintainable code that connects diverse software components, from inference services to UI layers.
• Ensure reliability and scalability of model-serving infrastructure on AWS and Kubernetes.
• Support rapid prototyping and iteration of AI features by building flexible integration layers.
• Create tools and utilities that simplify interaction with AI services for internal and external developers.
  

What We’re Seeking

We’re looking for people who are smart, nice, & get stuff done. Proscia is a high-growth company, and we want entrepreneurial doers that thrive in a challenging environment, that are ready to build the plane while flying it. Proscia's next AI Systems Integration Engineer will have:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, or a related technical field.
