The posting

Founding Engineer Brooklyn, NY (in-person)

About Voyager Voyager is building software at the intersection of healthcare, finance, and AI. We’re focused on helping people better navigate and afford healthcare by unifying financial infrastructure, benefits, and intelligent software into a single product. Voyager is a pre-seed stage company started by repeat founders, Jesse Rose and Will Dennis. We are backed by a16z Speedrun and a group of exceptional angels.

The Role We’re looking for a founding engineer to help design and build Voyager’s core product from the ground up. You’ll work directly with the founders. You’ll own large parts of the system end-to-end. You’ll make product and technical decisions that compound over time.

This is a senior IC role with room to grow as the company grows.

What You’ll Do Own entire product surfaces from initial design through production and iteration Build core systems that touch real users and real money Make pragmatic architectural decisions in an ambiguous, fast-moving environment Ship quickly, then improve what matters Set the technical bar that future engineers build on

What We’re Looking For 6+ years building and owning production systems Strong product instincts and good judgment under uncertainty Experience in fintech, financial or healthcare infrastructure, or AI-native products is a plus Comfort operating with incomplete information and tight feedback loops Care deeply about correctness, reliability, and user experience Excitement about AI and the rapidly evolving tools at your disposal to help you build We care more about taste and ownership than about any specific stack.

What This Is Not A role with detailed specs handed down to you A narrow slice of the system An environment optimized for consensus over progress

What Success Looks Like After 6 months, you’ve: Shipped core product flows used by real customers Made architectural decisions that unlocked speed and flexibility Chose what not to build and saved the team months of work This role is ideal for anyone interested in founding their own company in the future.

How We Work We work together in person in Brooklyn. We believe tight feedback loops produce better software and better decisions, especially early on.

Benefits The expected base pay range for this position is $175,000–$225,000 + meaningful early-stage equity, based on qualifications and experience Team lunch every day Medical, dental, and vision coverage 401(k) Competitive PTO policy Commuter benefits Equipment and setup of your choice

This is a true zero-to-one role with real equity and real responsibility. If you’re excited about building from first principles and owning what you ship, we’d love to talk.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
