Hello, I'm Whitman Schorn

12 years of production software, most of it in healthcare and finance, where the stakes are real.

I own products end to end. At Felt Clinic I shipped live pediatric care for 450,000 monthly users at 99.99% uptime. At MDandMe I architected an AI patient triage app. For a top-10 US bank I was the whole product, UI, and design team.

Deep TypeScript / React / Node.js; strong Python and PostgreSQL. Claude Code runs daily with custom harnesses, always backed by strict types and tests.

Experience

  1. End-to-end ownership

    A unified monolith serving 450K monthly users at 99.99% uptime, and a zero-downtime migration of 10M+ user records from MongoDB to PostgreSQL.

  2. AI products

    Architected an AI patient triage app: memory and retrieval for the chat, stateful intake logic for critical emergencies and referrals, and voice-based patient intake.

  3. Design systems

    Felt Clinic's design system and interface, built from scratch and reused across multiple brands and provider networks, with a focus on accessibility.

  4. Team leadership

    Led the Primary Care Physician team at Quartet Health and a team of ten engineers at Transfix. I keep teams clear and fast with good questions, light rituals, and standards that always run.

  5. HIPAA and SOC2 Compliance

    Owned HIPAA compliance for live pediatric care in all 50 states, and delivered machine learning KYC tooling to a top-10 US bank under financial regulation.
