New Lantern | https://newlantern.ai | Software engineers (backend and generalist product engineers, founding security engineer) | Full time in San Francisco, CA (ONSITE)

New Lantern is building an AI radiology resident—think Cursor for radiologists. Our application integrates the three software tools radiologists use all day [1], together with AI, to create a platform that saves radiologists toil and lets them focus on reading images and finding disease.

We are a series A startup with ~15 engineers (~30 total staff), have live customers generating revenue, several years of runway, and are backed by Benchmark, Anthropic, and other great investors.

We're hiring for several engineering roles. You'll work directly with our founder/CEO, our staff radiologists, and our end users to build a product that radiologists rely on daily. You'll have real ownership and autonomy, and ship meaningful work frequently.

I'm Steve, New Lantern's Head of Engineering. If you're interested or want to learn more, shoot me a note at (my HN username)@newlantern.ai. I've already hired one engineer from HN this year and interviewed many more!

I can't access your resume—you need to make it shared/accessible.


Thank u for letting me know :)

I love that you have to find the cancer on the CT scan to see the jobs page. That’s creative. Now I’m craving some gamified version of that to see how terrible of a radiologist I would be.

New Lantern is hiring software engineers to help build an AI copilot [1] for radiologists.

Radiologists are experts at diagnosing disease in medical images, but they spend the majority of their working hours on tasks that have nothing to do with diagnosis: reading prior reports, transcribing handwritten notes, taking manual measurements, dictating reports, and chasing down follow-ups. New Lantern is building an AI copilot for radiologists to automate this non-diagnostic work, so radiologists can focus on the diagnostic & patient care work they love the most.

We are starting to find product-market fit and recently raised a $19M Series A from Benchmark [2]. Demand for our product is growing, and we're hiring software engineers in San Francisco to help us scale our product and our team. We work together in person five days a week from our office in Jackson Square.

Engineering is at the heart of New Lantern. Our engineers work directly with our founder/CEO, our staff radiologist, and our end users to build features that radiologists rely on daily. Everyone has real ownership and autonomy, moves quickly, and ships meaningful work frequently. We're a small, sharp team of frontend, full-stack, and backend engineers building a React-based web app backed by Python services, cloud infrastructure, and LLMs.

We're hiring for several engineering roles but top of mind right now is a Senior+ (ideally Staff-level) Infrastructure Engineer. We're looking for someone who's excited to help our team go from 0.25->1 on observability, availability/reliability, and scalable & easily deployed infrastructure to help us grow to meet customer demand. Once we level up our infrastructure, this team member will be instrumental in helping us build towards very high availability and reliability systems that enable high product development velocity.

[1] We translate "AI copilot" to "AI radiology resident" when we speak with medical professionals, but the former is the clearest way to communicate what we're building here.

FYI the whole point of early exercise + 83b election is that you "pay" all tax due, but the tax due is $0, so you don't pay anything. There _is_ non-trivial risk of sinking liquid cash into illiquid startup stock, but this risk has nothing to do with tax.


If you’re joining after there’s been any money raised, you’re likely triggering some taxes.

How many people are joining startups that haven’t had a 409A yet? I’ve joined seed stage companies and even then - there’s a FMV that would trigger taxes.

My more general point is that you should be a founder (cause it’s what you want to do) or join a pre-ipo (cause you need employment/money).

New Lantern is hiring software engineers to help build an AI copilot [1] for radiologists.

Radiologists are experts at diagnosing disease in medical images, but they spend over half their working hours on tasks that have nothing to do with diagnosis: reading prior reports, transcribing handwritten notes, taking manual measurements, dictating reports, and chasing down follow-ups.

The author is excited to talk about helping the employee grow and have more impact, which (if successful) should make them more valuable to the company, resulting in promotion and increased compensation.

He perceives employees who want to talk with him about "leveling" as seeking the formula or checklist to get paid more, and not necessarily about growing or putting in the work.

The latter is fine if your performance objectives are objective and directly aligned with company success (i.e. achievement of sales quotas). It's more fraught if your performance objectives are more subjective or defined in ways that are proxies for company success—it's easy to fall prey to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goodhart%27s_law where employees do the things that get them promoted, which may actually make them or the company more valuable.


Especially notable is the Sprint accelerated at 100g! That's Mach 10 in < 4s.
