Senior Software Engineer - Backend, Agentic Workflows

Torch Dental is a rapidly growing start-up whose mission is to improve the lives of healthcare providers by simplifying supply ordering, providing transparent pricing, and modernizing a previously outdated ordering process. Torch is targeting the $100+ billion office-based healthcare supply industry, starting with dental practices. Our innovative e-commerce software platform streamlines healthcare professionals’ procurement process and secures the best prices for products.

This hybrid role sits in our Flatiron office at 49 W 23rd St, Floor 3 - a central NYC spot surrounded by great food, coffee and easy transit. It's a space designed for focused work, fast iteration, and collaboration with others

We are a close‑knit team that enjoys working together every day to solve real‑world problems. We obsess over customer satisfaction, promote a strong bias for action, encourage team members to engage in impactful work, and foster a one team culture. Our goal is to create better solutions to help healthcare professionals succeed, and we are looking for people like you to help bring this vision to life.

As a Senior Backend Engineer at Torch, you’ll play a key role in evolving our platform’s architecture, building high-performance distributed systems, and developing agentic workflows that power our next generation of AI-enabled product experiences. You’ll design the backend systems that support LLM-powered features at scale - whether that means orchestrating web or voice agents to fetch data, building reliable workflows and safeguards for ingestion and normalization, or ensuring everything operates securely and compliantly.

This role is designed to grow with you: engineers at Torch are encouraged to expand their responsibility, deepen technical ownership, and shape the direction of our platform based on their ambition and interests.
