The healthcare industry still relies on faxes and phone tags to coordinate critical care for patients at home. We think patients and the clinicians who serve them deserve better than a system stuck in 1995.
Verse Medical is building the modern software infrastructure to make it happen. We're a well-funded Series C company (backed by General Catalyst, SignalFire, and Sapphire Ventures) on a mission to heal a fragmented system. Our platform connects the dots between providers, payors, and patients, ensuring people get the high-quality care they need, reliably and right where they live. We’re growing fast and looking for people who are driven by this mission to join us!
Our values are the operating system for how we work together and with our partners. They aren't just words on a wall; they are the principles we bring to every decision, every day.
We are transparent, upfront and direct. We operate with honesty and clarity. We share information openly, the good and the bad, and believe that direct, respectful feedback is the foundation of trust and progress.
We value speed of iteration. We are building something new, which means we learn by doing. We prioritize rapid iteration and getting solutions into the hands of users, believing that progress is more valuable than perfection.
We give 110% effort, 30% of the time. We are passionate about our mission, and there are moments that require us to go the extra mile. We believe in focused intensity when it counts, balanced by a sustainable pace that keeps our team energized for the long run.
We empathize with customers to a fault. When our users face a problem, we own it. Instead of asking them to change, we ask ourselves, "How can we make this better?" We believe true innovation comes from deep empathy and a relentless focus on solving the real-world challenges of healthcare.
As a Full Stack Software Engineer, you'll be shaping the future of at-home care. You'll be a key part of the team, working closely with customers & internal teams to define exactly what needs to be built. Our engineers deeply understand our users’ and internal needs, which has been a big key to our success.
Within your first year, you will have the opportunity to work on critical initiatives for Verse. This includes, but not limited to:
Document extraction with LLMs
Programmatically translating complex and nuanced medical documents into structured info to automate ordering and validation.
This directly works to get patients the care they need more accurately and more quickly while saving medical professionals time and stress.
Laying the groundwork for new DME (durable medical equipment) categories
Working toward a strategic priority to expand into new DME categories to increase the appeal of our product to entire healthcare systems and diversify our sales motion and business model.
Building an extensible application in entirely new verticals (e.g. oxygen tanks, wheel chairs, etc) in a way that minimizes duplication, maximizes speed, and allows us to iterate quickly on user learnings.
Building increasingly sophisticated automation to fulfill orders
The home health DME space is complex.
It does not operate at all like an ecommerce platform. If you order a backpack from amazon, you (as the user) pick the exact SKU that gets sent out (color, brand, size, etc). That’s not how it works in our space.
Nurses only send in some detail about the prescribed DME products with the patient information. We have to translate this into specific products that:
Meet the patient need
Are (ideally) covered by insurance, which is very hard to know definitively.
Adhere to the customized way that the clinic wants to operate (notification styles, brand preferences, product terminology etc)
Are in stock, available, and financially sustainable.
There is a long tail of special cases, nuanced business logic, etc. that goes into fulfilling these orders. Our goal as engineers is to build an increasingly sophisticated system that captures more and more of this over time.
We believe that diverse experiences and backgrounds lead to better solutions. While we have an idea of what will help someone succeed in this role, we are open to being convinced by your unique story and skills. If you believe you can achieve the outcomes above, we encourage you to apply.
