Senior🎓
Top SchoolPhil Bjorge is a Senior Staff Engineer with 14 years of experience building cloud-native, secure platforms and scalable systems—from early startups to Microsoft—and now architects agent-driven AI for healthcare revenue-cycle automation. He combines deep AWS/Kubernetes expertise and rigorous engineering practices (observability, security-first design, data-driven iteration) with novel integrations of real-time LLM decisioning and offline code generation to automate eligibility, prior authorization, claims, and payment posting. Phil has repeatedly improved performance and reliability at scale—reducing reindex times from hours to minutes, cutting costs while doubling services, and introducing custom instrumentation to find hidden bottlenecks. Equally comfortable leading teams or diving into the stack, he has shipped production Kubernetes platforms, developer-facing APIs, and mobile features across diverse tech stacks. Based in Bellingham, WA, he brings a track record of pragmatic innovation aimed at removing friction from complex systems—most recently applying agentic systems to fix critical pain points in US healthcare RCM.
