The Clinician-Engineer Bootcamp

$99 · September 2026 Cohort For clinicians 2-week mini-bootcamp

Start your path to becoming a clinician-engineer.

A short, live bootcamp for clinicians. Over two weeks and around 8–10 hours total, you'll learn how to plan, scope, and ship software using AI-assisted tools. We build together as a cohort, with Brian guiding the group and giving every participant at least one 1:1 for project scoping and mentorship. The format adapts to whoever's in the cohort, and every participant ships a real full-stack app. No prior coding required.

The didactics

What you'll learn

AI writes the code now. What you'll learn is the layer above it: how to be the architect and product owner of your own software. You'll plan, scope, direct AI-assisted tools, review what comes back, and ship the result. About 10% of the bootcamp is big-picture didactic material. The rest is live, hands-on building we do together, where someone is always sharing their screen and everyone takes a turn. You're welcome to keep building between sessions on your own (fair warning: this stuff can be addictive).

How modern software ships

The path from idea to live product. Repos, branches, deploys, environments, and the pieces that connect them. You'll learn what they are and how they fit together, without memorizing the syntax behind each one.

Working with AI as a collaborator

How to treat an LLM as a teammate you delegate to. When to trust it, when to push back, and how to stay in control while it does the typing.

Driving Claude Code

How to use Claude Code day to day. Scoping a feature, prompting for what you want, reviewing the diff, debugging, and shipping the change.

Shipping to production

Deploying to the public internet. Wiring up auth, a database, and the basic guardrails so a non-engineer can run software safely.

The outcome

You'll ship a real app of your own

You walk away with a working full-stack app you chose. We build together as a cohort, tailored to whoever's in it, and everyone finishes with something real. We strongly encourage apps in the healthcare domain. Part of the goal is to help clinicians bring their ideas to life and improve care for patients, and you already know those workflows. Non-clinical ideas are welcome, but healthcare is where you'll have the most impact.

1

Bring an idea

Come with a healthcare-related idea if you can, like a clinical workflow that annoys you or something you've wanted to build for your patients or practice.

2

Scope it with Brian

Every participant gets at least one 30-minute to 1-hour 1:1 with Brian to trim your idea into something you can realistically ship in two weeks, plus general mentorship while you're there. The skill of saying 'not in v1' is half the work.

3

Build with the cohort

You're building with Claude Code as your pair, mostly on your own time. The cohort is building alongside you, and live sessions are where you ask questions, get unstuck, and see what others are figuring out.

The stack

What you'll ship on

These are the tools your app will run on. Don't worry if the names mean nothing to you yet. That's what the first sessions are for.

Next.js + TypeScript

The web framework.

shadcn/ui

Pre-built UI components.

Vercel

Hosting and one-click deploys.

Neon

Serverless Postgres database.

Clerk

Accounts, sign-in, billing.

The format

How the bootcamp runs

Built for busy schedules. Live and instructor-led, but compact.

Two weeks · 8–10 hours

About two weeks total, 8–10 hours of your time. Around 10% is big-picture didactic material. The rest is live, hands-on building done together: someone is always sharing their screen, and everyone takes a turn.

Small group, tailored

Small on purpose, so we can tailor the bootcamp to whoever's in the cohort. Most of the work is done as a group, and every participant gets at least one 30-min to 1-hour 1:1 with Brian for project scoping and mentorship. Selection is based on fit.

Live, but recorded

Every session is live and interactive. To accommodate different schedules, all sessions are recorded, and you'll have access to each recording within 1-2 days. Recordings are shared with your cohort only — never published publicly or sold.
