# Adam R. Kuhn > Staff Software Engineer at Headway Location: New York, New York, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/adamrkuhn github.com/arkuhn Mission driven, distributed systems engineer building products to help people. Lately at Headway, I’ve been designing and building data driven software in the insurance space to redefine the patient/provider <-> insurance billing experience, and ultimately expand access to high quality therapy. Before that, I spent time at Honor in the senior care space optimizing the care giver <- > senior matching experience. Prior work also includes FactSet and UTC in the finance and security spaces respectively, common denominator being a detail oriented focus on user experience, driving outcomes and a love of the craft. Typical stack involves AWS, Docker, Python, Typescript/Javascript, React and a relational database. These days Postgres. ## Work Experience ### Staff Software Engineer @ Headway Jan 2026 – Present ### Senior Software Engineer @ Headway Jan 2024 – Jan 2026 | New York, New York, United States Backend engineer working on the patient insurance benefits and billing experience. - Streamlining insurance intake with OCR/LLMs with the help of Anthropic. - Minimizing patient/provider contact rate with better anomalous error detection, fuzzy matching techniques, and enhanced system redundancy. - Implementing robust management of opaque, low-availability third party APIs - Improving billing accuracy with data-driven predictive techniques - Extra curriculars include joyful internal tools, running our intern program, upgrading our Python major version (3 times), and text based slack games to gamify tech debt clean up.
