We’re building a platform that makes it delightfully simple for people to find, book, and afford care across virtual and in-person visits, prescriptions, labs, imaging, and more.
As a Marketplace Scientist at General Medicine, you’ll work directly with our Chief Economist to design the algorithms, mechanisms, and models that underpin the matching, pricing, and insurance estimation systems at the heart of the business. From understanding patient preferences to forecasting prices across complex insurance networks, your work will determine how the marketplace functions and scales.
For our Marketplace Scientist, we are looking for a strong quantitative background specifically applied to pricing, financial data or risk assessment. We are looking for someone who can fluidly turn quantitative insight into actionable shifts in pricing and payment.
