Bask Health are hiring a Forward Deployed Engineer, Merchant Soluti

Bask Health is a software platform that enables entrepreneurs, doctors, and healthcare businesses to launch, manage, and grow direct-to-consumer telehealth businesses.

Our platform brings together patient experiences, clinical workflows, pharmacy operations, and commerce tools in one place.

We're an entrepreneurial, product-focused engineering team that values ownership, technical excellence, and building software that solves real problems. Engineers work closely with product teams and company leadership, take features from idea to production, and have a direct role in shaping the platform.

Engineering at Bask is AI-first and builder-led. We use tools like Cursor and Claude Code throughout development while maintaining high standards for reliability, testing, and software quality.

We're looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer, Merchant Solutions to help merchants successfully implement, customize, and operate their businesses on Bask Health's platform.

This role combines hands-on software engineering with practical problem-solving across merchant onboarding, technical integrations, storefront configuration, and operational workflows. You'll work closely with engineering, product, and customer-facing teams to understand merchant requirements and develop solutions that make the platform easier to implement and use.

You'll build integrations, develop application functionality, troubleshoot technical issues, and create tools that support merchant operations. Your work may involve storefronts, product configurations, subscriptions, checkout experiences, third-party services, and other parts of Bask's platform.

This is an engineering position rather than a traditional customer support or implementation coordination role. You'll write production-quality code, work with APIs and backend services, and contribute directly to technical solutions that solve merchant problems.

You'll also help identify recurring merchant challenges and collaborate with the broader engineering team to develop reusable improvements rather than relying on one-off fixes.

We're looking for someone who enjoys working directly with real business problems, communicates clearly with technical and nontechnical stakeholders, and takes ownership of delivering reliable solutions.
