About the Role

We’re looking for a talented, AI-forward software engineer to help build and scale the systems powering our platform.

This role sits at the intersection of backend engineering, artificial intelligence, data infrastructure, and cybersecurity. You’ll work on challenging problems involving large-scale information processing, LLM-powered workflows, intelligent automation, and system performance.

You’ll have meaningful ownership, work closely with a small team, and help shape how our technology evolves as we grow. We value strong technical judgment, creative problem-solving, and the ability to turn ambiguous challenges into practical solutions.

About Us

The Cyber Health Company empowers individuals with products and security experts to improve their cybersecurity, digital privacy and digital hygiene. We unapologetically offer human customer service. We believe that in 2026, cybersecurity and digital privacy are not features but a primary value proposition.

We work directly with individuals and families but are often sponsored by companies to support their senior team’s personal cybersecurity outside the corporate environment. Similar to covered healthcare, we are paid for by an employer but privacy-preserving with each executive.

Founded in 2021, we raised capital from top-tier venture capital funds who seeded Square, Airbnb, Uber, GitLab, Authy and Digital Ocean. We are proudly based in New York City.

About You

  • ‘Cyber Health first’ - you already make decisions with Cyber Health in mind. You think about cyber security, privacy, and digital hygiene as you interact with others and navigate the online world throughout the day.
  • AI-pilled - your day-to-day workflows have substantially changed in the last 3 years. You seek advantages each day provided by developments in AI, without sacrificing security or privacy.
  • Startup mentality - startups are underdogs and being an early employee in a start-up company is hard. Hard work, agility and scrappiness are necessary conditions to achieve the impossible. You are a self-starter and are self-motivated.
  • Super organized - startups are in constant growth mode, putting out fires left and right. You are detail-oriented and can remain organized as a calm in the storm.
  • Empathy for others - you enjoy resolving technical issues for others and have empathy for people with less technical skills than yourself

About You

  • Strong problem-solver: You enjoy tackling difficult technical challenges and finding thoughtful, effective solutions.
  • AI-forward: You actively explore AI tools and LLMs and incorporate them into how you build software.
  • Backend-minded: You enjoy working with systems, data, APIs, and infrastructure, rather than focusing primarily on frontend development.
  • Self-directed: You take ownership, work independently, and are comfortable navigating ambiguity.
  • Adaptable: You thrive in a startup environment where priorities evolve and everyone contributes to the team's success.
  • Security-conscious: You care about digital privacy and understand the importance of building technology responsibly.
  • Collaborative: You communicate clearly, share ideas, and enjoy working with a close-knit team.

Experience & Technical Skills

We’re interested in candidates with experience in several of the following areas:

  • Backend software engineering, particularly with Node.js and TypeScript
  • Building and maintaining APIs and data pipelines
  • LLM applications, AI agents, or AI-powered workflows
  • Data extraction, information retrieval, or web data processing
  • Cloud infrastructure and application deployment
  • Database design and performance optimization
  • AI evaluation, automation, or distributed systems

You don’t need to check every box. We’re open to different backgrounds and career paths, and we value demonstrated technical ability, curiosity, and a strong capacity to learn.

What We Offer

  • Meaningful impact: Help make digital privacy and cybersecurity more accessible.
  • Technical ownership: Work on important systems and contribute directly to product development.
  • Cutting-edge technology: Explore practical applications of AI in a rapidly evolving field.
  • Close collaboration: Work alongside a motivated team in a fast-moving startup environment.
  • Growth: Take on challenging problems and expand your technical skills and responsibilities.
  • Equity: Receive stock options as an early member of a growing company.
  • Your choice of laptop: Use the equipment that best supports your work.

If you’re excited about building useful technology, solving difficult problems, and helping shape the future of personal cybersecurity, we’d love to hear from you.
