Built for - A senior engineer for healthtech startups

Shipping healthcare software means PHI you can't leak, EHR integrations that fight you, and audit trails for every click. devkyn is founder-led, senior from the first line. We build the careful stuff fast, and HIPAA is never an afterthought.

Start next week
  • HL7 and FHIR integrations that eat weeks. Every EHR vendor has its own quirks, and the sandbox docs are always out of date.
  • PHI everywhere. One wrong log line or unencrypted field becomes a breach. Access controls and audit logging can't be bolted on later.
  • Hiring an engineer who actually understands healthcare data is slow and expensive, and a single contractor goes dark mid-build.
  • Compliance pressure (HIPAA, SOC 2, BAAs) lands on engineering, but it competes with the roadmap your investors care about.

What we build for Healthtech

  • A FHIR-based patient data sync with Epic or Cerner via SMART on FHIR, including OAuth token handling and the inevitable vendor edge cases
  • Field-level encryption and a tamper-evident audit log for every PHI read/write, so SOC 2 and HIPAA reviews stop blocking releases
  • A patient intake flow with e-signature consent forms, insurance card OCR upload, and structured data that maps cleanly to your EHR
  • Role-based access control separating clinicians, billing staff, and patients, with break-glass access and full access logging
  • A claims or eligibility integration against a clearinghouse (Change Healthcare, Availity) with X12 270/271 and 837 handling
  • A provider-facing dashboard with appointment scheduling, secure messaging, and Twilio-backed appointment reminders that don't expose PHI in transit

Why a subscription fits Healthtech

One week it's a compliance fire drill, the next it's an EHR integration, then a feature investors asked for. A flat $6,900/month with one task at a time means you reprioritize on the spot. No renegotiating a contract every time the audit deadline moves. Pause anytime the roadmap goes quiet.

Frequently asked questions

Do you handle PHI and sign a BAA?
Yes. We build with HIPAA in mind from the first commit, with encryption, access controls, and audit logging, and we'll sign a BAA before touching anything that involves real PHI. For most work we develop against synthetic or de-identified data and keep production PHI out of dev environments entirely.
Have you actually worked with EHR and FHIR integrations before?
Yes. We've built against FHIR and SMART on FHIR, handled the OAuth dance with EHR sandboxes, and dealt with X12 claims and eligibility files. These integrations are 20% spec and 80% vendor quirks, and we budget for the quirks.
Can you help us get audit-ready for SOC 2 or a HIPAA review?
On the code side, yes. We can add the audit logging, access controls, encryption, and data-handling patterns auditors look for. We're not a compliance firm and won't write your policies, but we'll make sure the software holds up when the auditor starts clicking.
