About the RoleWe are seeking a Founding Engineer who values technology as a tool to create leverage for our team, not an end in itself. You'll be the driving force behind our tech platform to serve both the Seen Health San Gabriel Valley PACE program and our tech design partners. You will create systems and tools for our clinicians and staff that respect their skills and time, deliver relevant data at the time and site of care, and enhance their ability to deliver exceptional care to our participants. You have opportunities to venture beyond software to craft solutions that incorporate devices, personnel, families, local communities, and the broader healthcare ecosystem.
