Fullstack Software Engineering Co-op

Who we are

Zus is a shared health data platform designed to accelerate healthcare data interoperability by providing easy-to-use patient data via API, embedded components, and direct EHR integrations. Founded in 2021 by Jonathan Bush, co-founder and former CEO of athenahealth, Zus partners with HIEs and other data networks to aggregate patient clinical history and then translates that history into user-friendly information at the point of care. Zus's mission is to catalyze healthcare's greatest inventors by maximizing the value of patient insights - so that they can build up, not around.

What we’re looking for...

We are looking for an eager software engineering co-op to help build the next generation of healthtech tools. This co-op will report to our Software Engineering Manager on the Gaps team. 

You are intellectually curious and love learning new technologies. You are hungry to make a difference in a fluid, early-stage startup and are confident in working in a cross-functional culture. With broad needs and a small team, we’re looking for engineers eager to jump into the next challenge and committed to learning what we need to make the magic happen.

The Gaps team identifies situations in which a patient is potentially receiving sub-optimal care and surfaces those to providers.  We use industry standard algorithms to identify these gaps and then surface them to users via our web application.  The co-op on this team will act as a full-stack engineer with a focus on building out our web application to surface care gaps to providers.  This team's tech stack includes: Typescript, React, Tailwind, Node, and SQL, so experience with these or related technologies is definitely a plus.
