Lead Software Engineer – AI Focused

$3.5K / monthly • CO / PE / CR / HN / CL / AR / DO / PR / BR / Remote (CO; PE; CR; HN; CL; AR; DO; PR; BR) Job type Contract Role Engineering, Devops Experience 6+ years Visa US citizenship/visa not required About Luna Joy Luna Joy is a leading provider of mental health services, specializing in supporting women through their mental wellness journey. We offer holistic therapy and medication management to help women overcome challenges like postpartum mental health issues. Our dedicated team of professionals works in a collaborative, flexible, and remote environment, ensuring comprehensive care for our clients. We are rapidly expanding and committed to improving access to quality mental health services across the U.S. Job Overview We are rebuilding how engineering happens at LunaJoy. Modern AI coding tools, Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex, can now write the majority of production code under human direction. The bottleneck has moved from typing code to scoping problems tightly enough that a fleet of AI agents can execute them without producing pull requests that miss the point. High-impact engineering today isn’t just fast coding; it's about strong systems thinking, sharp specs, and disciplined reviews. This role is the senior-most engineer at LunaJoy. You will own the technical function - engineering and AI infrastructure. You will set our technical direction, scope work for fleets of AI agents, and own the migration of our codebase to be AI-native and AI-readable end-to-end. Within 3 months, you will be running the engineering function autonomously. This is not a standard coding role. It is a leadership and orchestration role for someone who has been an engineer their whole career, knows how to ship, and now wants to operate at a higher level of leverage.

Key Responsibilities

Lead the architecture, design, and implementation of scalable software systems with embedded AI components.
AI infrastructure and agent orchestration. Claude Code workflows, n8n automation flows, agent feedback loops, and the self-improvement infrastructure that makes our agents better over time.
The codebase migration to an AI-readable structure.
Hierarchy, file-header docstrings, characterization tests on legacy modules, and strangler-fig migrations of high-risk areas.
Specification and review quality. You write the specs that fleets of agents execute against. You are the final review gate for production-bound code.
HIPAA-adjacent technical decisions. This role touches PHI. You own the discipline that keeps us compliant and our patients safe.

Experience & Background

6+ years of software engineering experience.
Strong systems thinking skills.
Experience leading technical teams or functions preferred.
Familiarity with HIPAA or healthcare compliance a plus.
