Want to make a meaningful impact on people's health? Want to work in an AI-native company? At Relu, we're growing - and we're looking for someone like you.We're looking for a Backend Engineer, Integrations & Applied AI to join our Automate Platform team. You'd own the inbox pipeline from the moment a case arrives: get data in from every scanner and folder, understand the case, act on it, and keep the dentist in the loop. What you would work on:\n Integrations in: scanner platforms (3Shape, Medit, iTero, Shining3D, AlliedStar, DS Core, Dexis and new ones), folder sync, email, WeTransfer.\n Integrations out: LMSs (Labtrac, DentiSky and others) for pulling order data and pushing status, CAM and printers (Shapeware, Formlabs, SprintRay, Carbon), folder sync out, exports to 3Shape and Exocad.\nAutomatic case entry: enter scanner data into the LMS. For LMSs without an API, a browser or computer-use automation.\n Rx digitizer: read prescription PDFs and scanned forms into structured data (teeth, shades, materials, due dates), across languages and lab abbreviations.\nRx intelligence: from the Rx, notes, doctor and the lab's history, predict which CAD orders to create, and learn from what users accept or correct.\n Rx QC: flag missing, inconsistent or contradictory prescriptions.\nScan Check in the inbox (backend): pick checks by order type, set blocker versus warning. The AI team builds the checks.\nDentist messaging: per-case threads through scanner platforms, email and WhatsApp.\nAsk Relu: tools that act in the app, the knowledge base, model choice and cost, answer-quality evals.\nFirst 6 months\nMonth 1: take over inbox poll health and two or three vendor integrations. Fix the known evidence leaks in the sync templates.\nMonths 2 to 3: build the Rx extraction eval set from real cases. Ship the digitizer and normalization v2 behind a confidence threshold.\nMonths 3 to 5: first LMS integration (pull data, push status), then automatic case entry for one LMS.\nMonths 5 to 6: Rx intelligence v1, predicting CAD orders per lab and learning from corrections.\nYour profile\n Must-havesProduct ownership and vision: takes a raw user problem (\"a lab says cases are missing\", \"order entry takes too long\"), finds the real need, and scopes what is essential versus nice to have before building.\n3+ years of backend engineering, strong Python.\nHas built many third-party integrations and handled OAuth and token refresh, rate limits, idempotency, retries, webhooks versus polling, and schema drift.\nHas shipped LLM features to production with evals: datasets, metrics, regression checks when prompts or models change, cost tracking.\nOwns problems end to end, from \"a lab says cases are missing\" to root cause, fix and monitoring.\nPragmatic: picks a rules catalog with an LLM fallback over an elaborate ML system when that works.\nNice-to-haves\nHealthcare, dental or regulated-data experience (HIPAA, GDPR).\nDocument extraction or OCR, or browser and computer-use automation.\nWorkflow engines (ActivePieces, Temporal, n8n) or ETL pipelines.\nDutch or French.\nWhy us?\nA mission that matters: we're improving dental care and making higher-quality dentistry accessible to everyone, globally\nA fast-growing company where your growth goes hand-in-hand with ours - real impact, real ownership, early responsibility and skills in the technologies of the future\nThe chance to work with the latest AI technologies and industry leaders in dentistry\nFun team culture: after-works, bi-weekly sports, hackathons, retreats","description_format":"text","description_chars":3572,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":3,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Machine Learning","Custom Software Development"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-10-13T15:17:30Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":86,"band":"hot","label":"Hiring now","p_open":1,"p_active":0.86,"p_room":1,"age_days":0,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:1","win:early"],"computed_at":"2026-10-14T00:26:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/relu-backend-engineer-integrations-applied-ai-mid-level","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/relu-backend-engineer-integrations-applied-ai-mid-level.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-14T00:26:15Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":599,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-10-15T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":32307},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=32307"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Frelu-backend-engineer-integrations-applied-ai-mid-level"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Frelu-backend-engineer-integrations-applied-ai-mid-level"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Frelu-backend-engineer-integrations-applied-ai-mid-level"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/relu-backend-engineer-integrations-applied-ai-mid-level\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Frelu-backend-engineer-integrations-applied-ai-mid-level"}]}
