At Sprinter Health, we are dedicated to transforming how individuals access medical care by bringing essential services directly to their homes. A significant portion of the population in the United States currently misses out on necessary preventive or chronic care due to logistical barriers, which often leads to avoidable emergency room visits and billions in unnecessary costs. By leveraging the same sophisticated technology that drives modern marketplace and delivery platforms, we provide care where it is needed most. To date, we have supported over 2 million patients across 22 states and completed more than 130,000 in-home visits, all while maintaining a 92 NPS. Backed by $125M in funding from prominent investors like a16z, General Catalyst, GV, and Accel, we are seeking a Senior Data Engineer to join our new AI-focused incubator team.
