About the role

Trellis builds and deploys self-improving agents to get patients access to life-saving medicine.
Our AI agents process billions of dollars worth of therapies annually with patients in all fifty states.

Think of us as the the infrastructure behind how the patients get the medications.
Trellis is a spinout from Stanford AI Lab and is backed by leading investors including YC, General Catalyst, Telesoft Partners, and executives at Google and Salesforce.
