Senior ML Engineer

📋 Job Overview

At Coral AI (trycoral.ai), we’re engineering the intelligent operating system for a more efficient healthcare industry. As recently featured in Forbes, we are tackling a massive administrative bottleneck, a $450 billion crisis that consumes 25% of U.S. healthcare spending and forces patients to wait weeks for life-saving treatment.

Our agentic automation platform is uniquely designed for healthcare’s \"messy\" reality, utilising sophisticated AI to digest handwritten faxes, complex medical records, and blurry scans with an unprecedented 98.7% accuracy. Backed by Lightspeed and founded by a team with deep roots in AI and robotics, we’ve scaled to multi-million dollars in ARR in less than six months by delivering immediate, Day-1 value to medical equipment providers, clinics and specialty pharmacies.

By slashing patient wait times from five days to under three hours, we’re doing more than just automating paperwork; we’re returning time to clinicians and ensuring that care is never delayed by a document. If you’re a high-ownership builder who wants to solve mission-critical problems in OCR and NLP while making a tangible impact on human lives, come help us build the infrastructure that lets healthcare scale
