Founding Backend Engineer

Mission

The U.S. healthcare system is complex, error-prone, and financially draining. Medical bills and insurance coverage shouldn’t be this hard to navigate. We’re building a platform designed to make it easier for people to manage their healthcare costs and benefits.

Using AI and new technology, the platform helps correct billing errors, resolve claim issues, and simplify coverage — saving people time, money, and stress. Our goal is simple: to create the go-to solution that empowers Americans to take control of their healthcare.

Founded by experienced leaders from top healthcare and technology companies, we’re a well-funded seed-stage startup backed by leading investors and founders across the tech and health sectors. We have raised $17M and are well-positioned for long-term growth.
