Head of Data Science - Remote

We're on a mission to scale personalized, coordinated care to everyone. Today, care coordination is a benefit available only to a select few, the most complex 1%-2% of patients, even though 60% of Americans live with at least one complex or chronic condition.

The result is health inequity - patients and their loved ones are left to fend for themselves in a confusing, highly fragmented health system. We are building disruptive technology that will cause a paradigm shift in virtual care.

We are backed by top-tier investors bridging both technology and healthcare including Maverick Ventures (investors in Cityblock, hims & hers, Devoted Health, One Medical). Find more info on our Series A here.

The Role

We’re looking for a founding data science leader. You will help us build a living, learning healthcare platform that integrates patient data from disparate sources, assists clinicians in care coordination, and unleashes the power of machine learning to enhance care pathways for patients facing significant health challenges.

Our data science team has access to hundreds of thousands of our patient interactions, EMR data, and outcomes. In this role, you will own our data science platform and build our CareBlocks Engine, a powerful model that predicts patient-specific personalized interventions to materially improve the patient’s quality of life and health outcomes.

Help us predict the ideal intervention for the 150,000 patients we serve today, and use the learnings to deliver personalized, highly effective interventions to the millions of patients we’ll serve in the future.
