Engineering Manager, Frontend Platform (Ambient AI)

At Commure, our mission is to simplify healthcare. We have bold ambitions to reimagine the healthcare experience, setting a new standard for how care is delivered and experienced across the industry. Our growing suite of AI solutions spans ambient AI clinical documentation, provider copilots, autonomous coding, revenue cycle management and more — all designed for providers & administrators to focus on what matters most: providing care.

Healthcare is a $4.5 trillion industry with more than $500 billion spent annually on administrative costs, and Commure is at the heart of transforming it. We power over 500,000 clinicians across hundreds of care sites nationwide – more than $10 billion flows through our systems and we support over 100 million patient interactions. With new product launches on the horizon, expansion into additional care segments, and a bold vision to tackle healthcare's most pressing challenges, our ambition is to move from upstart innovator to the industry standard over the next few years.

Healthcare's moment for AI-powered transformation is here, and we're building the technology to power it. Come join us in shaping the future of healthcare.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Engineering Manager to lead the Frontend Platform team powering our Ambient AI products. This team builds and owns the core frontend foundations used across clinician-facing experiences: ambient capture, real-time note generation, review & edit flows, copilot-style assistance, admin tooling, and integrations embedded into clinical workflows. Ambient is a high-throughput, low-latency, high-reliability product used by clinicians during live patient encounters. The frontend platform is critical: it must be fast, resilient, accessible, and intuitive under real-world clinical conditions.

Your team’s work directly impacts provider trust, documentation quality, and time saved per visit. This role is ideal for a leader who has scaled frontend platforms for complex, data-heavy, real-time products and who is excited about owning the foundations that enable multiple Ambient product teams to move fast without sacrificing quality or safety.

Ideally seeking someone who can join us in the office 1-3 days a week.

What You’ll Do

People Leadership & Delivery

• Lead and grow a senior team of frontend platform engineers supporting Ambient AI

• Set clear technical and execution standards in a high-bar, healthcare-grade environment

• Coach engineers on scope ownership, technical decision-making, and cross-team influence

• Hire and develop engineers who can operate across platform, product, and design boundaries

• Own planning, execution, and delivery for platform initiatives with clear product impact

Ambient Frontend Platform Ownership

• Own the frontend platform used across Ambient experiences (web, mobile, embedded surfaces)

• Lead architecture for real-time and async workflows (audio capture, streaming updates, AI state transitions)

• Build and scale shared UI primitives, component libraries, and design systems used across Ambient

• Improve frontend performance, latency, reliability, and offline/poor-network behavior

• Establish patterns for error handling, loading states, partial data, and confidence signaling in AI workflows

Developer Experience & Scale

• Create strong frontend abstractions that reduce duplication across Ambient product teams

• Improve local dev, testing, CI/CD, and release workflows for frontend engineers

• Define standards for frontend observability, performance metrics, and user-impact monitoring

• Partner with backend and ML teams to define clean contracts between AI systems and UI layers

Cross-Functional Leadership

• Partner deeply with Product to translate clinical workflows into scalable UI platforms

• Work closely with Design to evolve clinician-grade design systems and accessibility standards

• Collaborate with Compliance and Security to ensure frontend patterns meet healthcare requirements

• Influence frontend technical direction across the broader engineering organization

Technical Leadership

• Drive architectural reviews and RFCs for major Ambient frontend initiatives

• Help teams navigate tradeoffs between speed, quality, and safety in AI-driven UX

• Stay close enough to the code and architecture to unblock complex problems when needed

• Ensure platform decisions anticipate future scale (new care settings, modalities, and products)

What You Have

• 7+ years of engineering experience, including 3+ years managing frontend or platform teams

• Experience leading frontend platforms, shared UI infrastructure, or design systems

• Strong expertise with modern frontend stacks (e.g. React, TypeScript, modern build tooling)

• Experience supporting real-time, data-intensive, or mission-critical user workflows

• Proven ability to deliver platform capabilities used by multiple product teams

• Strong communication skills and comfort influencing product and technical direction

Nice to Have

• Experience building clinician-facing, enterprise, or regulated products

• Familiarity with AI-driven or ML-powered user experiences

• Experience with mobile + web shared platforms or cross-surface design systems

• Background in healthcare, fintech, or other high-reliability domains

What Success Looks Like

• Ambient product teams ship faster with fewer regressions and less UI fragmentation

• Frontend latency and reliability meet the needs of live clinical encounters

• A trusted design system and component platform adopted across Ambient surfaces

• Clear, consistent patterns for AI-driven workflows (loading, confidence, errors, edits)

• A high-performing frontend platform team that attracts senior talent
