daswolle | 3 months ago | on: Ask HN: Who is hiring? (December 2025)

Altira Health | Remote (US) | Full-time | Founding Software Engineer (Interop) | https://www.altirahealth.com/

We're building an AI care platform to reduce ER visits, close care gaps, and guide patients to the right care at the right time. We're a pre-seed healthcare startup working with major providers to drive real outcomes. We have great runway, we're moving fast, and we have lots of leads that mean we can't build fast enough. We also believe in compliance and security from day 0.

We're looking for someone with deep healthcare integration experience to hit the ground running. Ideally they're a pragmatic backend expert to help us scale our integration platform as we continue to grow. The expectation is deep knowledge of healthcare standards. Integrations can be a full time role, but at a startup it's necessary to wear many hats. So this individual should also feel comfortable as a generalist who can jump in at any part of the stack.

Stack: Python, Django, GraphQL, AWS, TypeScript, React, Terragrunt/OpenTofu

Ideal: early-stage experience, deep experience in healthcare integrations (FHIR, HL7, etc.), thrives solving problems

Fair compensation + equity

JD and application: https://app.dover.com/apply/altirahealth/862317ca-7c42-4dc1-...

daswolle | 2 years ago | on: Ask HN: Any hardware startups here?

This is really cool! I've seen some videos of these and I'm jealous they're so far away.

What sort of issues do you have? Is the hardware very custom?

It seems like a concept that could explode as a franchise or even template model like escape rooms a few years back.

daswolle | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: Meal Planning App?

I'm actively working on (something) this in my free time!

I'm frustrated by all the freemium apps and want to release something completely free for full recipe/shopping management. To me, that's baseline functionality.

The main difference in your description is that the shopping list can be auto generated by selected recipes planned against a calendar. e.g. I want to cook these 5 recipes this week and my shopping list automatically aggregates to say "3 onions" instead of 3 separate entries for onions. I don't have a "pantry" yet but can very easily see that in the future.

This sounds awesome. I've had half baked ideas along these lines for different intersections of disciples. Great you're pursuing it and making it a reality!

Are you comfortable sharing any more specifics? Do you have a landing page or is it all offline at the moment?
