Company Overview:

Cohere Health is illuminating healthcare for patients, their doctors, and all those who are important in a patient’s healthcare experience, both in and out of the doctors office.  Founded in August, 2019, we are obsessed with eliminating wasteful friction patients and doctors experience in areas that have nothing to do with health and treatment, particularly for diagnoses that require expensive procedures or medications.  To that end, we build software that is expressly designed to ensure the appropriate plan of care is understood and expeditiously approved, so that patients and doctors can focus on health, rather than payment or administrative hassles.

Opportunity Overview:

You will lead a high caliber software engineering team that is central to our value proposition and crucial to the success of our company. Your team will be building the clinical intelligence engine that enables millions of patients to get fast and effective healthcare. The platform will enable physicians, medical policy experts and healthcare analysts to collaborate effectively to drive better outcomes for our patients.

Last but not least: People who succeed here are empathetic teammates who are candid, kind, caring, and embody our core values and principles. We believe that diverse, inclusive teams make the most impactful work. Cohere is deeply invested in ensuring that we have a supportive, growth-oriented environment that works for everyone.

• Create transparency into delivery health through the use of meaningful sprint metrics that inform data-driven interventions. 
• Provide technical leadership throughout the technical design and sprint process
• Be a bastion of testing, quality, and attention to detail by supporting industry leading practices such as writing and maintaining comprehensive test coverage
• Actively participate in ensuring Cohere maintains a disciplined approach to healthcare security

• You bring a strong perspective that motivates engineers to develop simple, pragmatic solutions to complex problems.
• You have experience with common software development practices such as version control, unit testing, and CI/CD
• You have proven execution track record that is customer-centric in prioritisation - looking to deliver projects that serve the company’s needs and understand the impact
• You understand and demonstrate the power of granting autonomy to teams and individuals
