The Role
Build and scale reliable browser automation systems and execution infrastructure. Design stealth automation engines using browser fingerprinting and proxy management, orchestrate thousands of concurrent long-running workflows, and implement AI-assisted, self-healing scripts that adapt to dynamic UIs and maintain high consistency and low latency in production.

About The Role

What We Offer
If you ask a hospital today how much a treatment will cost, the answer is usually: “We don’t know.”
Not because providers don’t want to tell you but because patient cost is computed across insurance plans, negotiated rates, and billing rules that are fragmented, opaque, and not designed for real-time transparency.
What should be a simple question requires navigating a web of systems that don’t talk to each other.
So humans do that work instead.
They log into portals, call payers, follow decision trees, and manually stitch together answers across disconnected systems. Even when providers want to give a clear answer, the system makes it nearly impossible.
At Bravebird, we’re changing that.
We’re building agents that do the work between systems - end to end.
We believe the future of work is machines talking to machines, handling fragmented, system-to-system workflows so humans can focus on decisions, judgment, and care.
We're building agentic AI systems that can reason, act, and operate reliably in messy, real-world environments.
As a Software Engineer (Browser Automation), you will build the backbone that makes our agents reliable, scalable, and production-ready. You'll write the automations that log into fragmented legacy portals, keep them durable when those portals change, and build the infrastructure that runs thousands of them at once.
This is a deeply technical, high-ownership role. You'll work directly with founders, shape the technical direction, and ship systems that are used in real-world, high-stakes environments.
- Build Robust Automation Engines — highly reliable, code-first browser automations navigating complex, fragmented legacy portals and extracting structured data.
- Build Self-Healing Workflows — deterministic + AI-assisted self-healing that adapts to UI updates, layout shifts, and element mutations without human intervention.
- Scale Execution — concurrent, high-throughput execution of thousands of long-running workflows with strong state management, retries, low latency, high consistency.
- Architect Stealth Infrastructure — build and scale execution infrastructure using advanced stealth execution, browser fingerprinting, and residential proxy management to keep automations stable against portals that don't want to be automated.
- 5+ years of software engineering experience — you ship production systems and build software.
- Web automation at scale (hard requirement) — a proven track record of building and maintaining production-grade web automation or scraping systems at scale.
- Deep browser-automation expertise — hands-on mastery of Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium, or CDP, plus the DOM, HTTP, headers, and session management.
- Stealth and proxy mastery — direct production experience with stealth execution, residential proxy management, and browser fingerprinting.
- Architectural rigor — strong thinking around state management, distributed queues, and retries for long-running, non-deterministic workflows.
- A resilient problem-solving mindset — you enjoy reverse-engineering obscure systems, finding stable workarounds, and building durable software for restrictive environments.
- Ownership and impact
- Competitive compensation with meaningful equity
- Direct access to founders and customers
- The opportunity to ship production systems in high-stakes environments
Skills Required
- 3+ years of software engineering experience building and maintaining production-grade automation or web-scraping systems at scale
- Deep expertise with browser automation tools (Playwright, Puppeteer, Selenium)
- Mastery of the DOM, browser headers, and session management
- Strong architectural thinking around state management, distributed queues, and retries for long-running, non-deterministic workflows
- Proven ability to reverse-engineer legacy systems and build durable workarounds for restrictive environments

The Company
What We Do
Bravebird is an AI company that automates healthcare eligibility and benefit verification. It utilizes agentic AI to retrieve real-time patient insurance information directly from payer portals, integrating critical data such as co-pays and deductibles into practice management systems. Their mission is to replace fragmented, manual workflows between disparate systems with reliable AI agents, allowing healthcare providers to focus more on patient care.
