Imagine you're a patient in pain, searching for the right provider who accepts your insurance, is close to home, and specializes in your condition. Now imagine getting it wrong—waiting weeks for an appointment only to discover they can't help you. This role exists to eliminate that frustration.
You'll build the search infrastructure and entity resolution systems that power Hinge Select—our integration of digital and in-person MSK care. As an early team member, you'll architect geospatial search capabilities that help millions of people find the right care, fast.
