Principal Software Engineer

Principal Software Engineer (Remote)

About Us

Caire Health is building an AI-powered patient engagement platform that partners with health systems to connect patients to continuous, coordinated care. Caire was born out of a novel joint venture between Aegis Ventures, a venture capital studio creating transformative healthcare companies, and Northwell Health, New York’s largest health system. Through this unique arrangement, Caire operates as an independent health tech start up but enjoys the benefits of existing within this larger healthcare ecosystem.

We currently have one product in market on our platform, Upliv Health, which aims to empower women in perimenopause and menopause to take charge of their mental, physical, and emotional health through holistic care services and evidence-based information. We are also actively scaling our platform across various patient journeys and clients. 

Caire is supported by a multidisciplinary team of clinical advisors, product experts, experienced engineers, and business strategists who are passionate about improving healthcare for all. Come reimagine the future of healthcare with us!
