Head of Engineering

About M7 Health

If you are interested in applying for this job, please make sure you meet the following requirements as listed below.

Nurses are the largest sector of the healthcare workforce, yet the least invested in and the least technologized. Amid a record nursing shortage and unprecedented turnover, health systems lack the data, insights, tools, and operational know-how to foster the flexibility, predictability, and autonomy that the modern nurse demands.

M7 Health is a digital command center for nursing workforce management, built specifically for health systems. M7's platform helps hospitals better understand the unique work-life needs of their nurses and then guides nurse managers in building staffing models that optimize for staff satisfaction and efficiency.

We're backed by an all-star team of healthcare and venture investors, including First Round Capital and 25m Health.
