At PlaynVoice, we are reshaping mental health care by combining AI with clinical expertise to make documentation a breeze. In under 2 years, our AI scribe has gone from concept to reality, gaining 500+ users in Switzerland and Germany. We are generating over 20,000 patient notes monthly. We are looking for entrepreneurs; fast, ambitious, and smart individuals who want to take care of the people who take care of our mental health.

Tasks

• Prompt Engineering & Pipeline Management:
  Design, iterate, and maintain prompt systems that reliably generate high-quality clinical documentation across a growing number of templates. Build scalable prompt architectures that let us add new output formats without fragmentation.

  Benchmark and select the best LLM solutions for clinical documentation. Stay on top of the rapidly evolving model landscape and assess new options.
• Build Evaluation Pipelines:
  Design practical evaluation processes across our data pipeline from audio and transcription to LLM-generated output. The goal isn't perfection but knowing when output is good enough.
• Ensure Clinical Output Quality:
  Work closely with our psychologists and product team to define what "good" looks like, ensuring features meet the real-world expectations of users.
• Experiment, Ship, Iterate:
  Design experiments and data labeling strategies, push them to production, measure real-world performance, and use the insights to drive the next iteration.

• Pragmatic Startup Mindset:
  You know that good enough is good enough. You ship fast, iterate based on real‑world feedback, and resist over‑engineering. Ideally you've worked in an early‑stage SaaS company.
