Build a digital health startup this summer.

Build the pipeline that ingests, parses, and organizes medical records from disparate sources — Epic exports, PDF discharge summaries, lab reports, imaging notes — into a clean, consolidated structure. From there, generate LLM context files that make a patient's complete history queryable and useful for downstream clinical analysis.

Sub-roles: Records Ingestion & Parsing · Data Normalization · LLM Context Generation

Build the variant analysis pipeline — from raw VCF files through annotation and filtering to clinically relevant findings. Implement polygenic risk scoring models that translate genomic data into actionable risk estimates across disease categories.

Sub-roles: Variant Analysis · Polygenic Risk Scoring · Genomic Annotation

Build integrations that pull continuous data streams — heart rate, sleep, activity, glucose — from consumer devices and health APIs into a structured store. Design the processing layer that cleans, aligns, and summarizes time-series signals into formats useful for clinical context and model input.

Sub-roles: Device Integration · Signal Processing · Continuous Data Pipelines

Build the AI layer — model selection, prompting strategy, and agentic workflows that chain models into tools that solve real clinical problems. You'll also own evaluation and safety, defining how we measure whether the system is working and where it's likely to fail.

Sub-roles: Model Selection & Best Practices · LLM Architecture & System Prompts · Agentic Workflows · Evaluation & Safety

Design and ship the full-stack product — front-end, back-end, and UX — that makes the underlying intelligence accessible to patients and providers. You'll work across the stack, from API design and data access to the interface a user actually touches.

Sub-roles: UX · UI Design · Front-end Development · Back-end Development

Keep the team coordinated and the work moving — sprint planning, task management, and the rhythms that make a small team function well. You'll also own the tools and systems the company runs on, from productivity software to internal workflows.

Sub-roles: Project Management · HR, Team-Building & Experiences · IT: Third-Party Tools, Workflows & Change Management

Shape how Flashlight shows up in the world — website, content, brand presence, and external communication. Build the relationships with healthcare organizations, academic institutions, and potential partners that help us grow and get our tools in front of the people who need them.

Sub-roles: Website, Media & Branding · Communication & Content · Partnerships & Outreach

Work on legal entity structure, corporate governance, and financial planning — the infrastructure that lets a company function and scale. Relevant for students with backgrounds in law, business, finance, or policy who want to see how these disciplines apply at a company's earliest stage.

Sub-roles: Legal Entities & Governance · Funding & Budgeting

Own the visual language of our products — brand system, UI, motion, and illustration. Design interfaces and visuals that communicate clinical information clearly, making complex health data feel navigable and human.

Sub-roles: Visual Identity & Branding · UI & Interaction Design · Motion & Animation · Illustration & Digital Art
