About the role

At Starling we're bringing the future of a proactive and predictive home-based healthcare system to patients today.

In the US, 80% of healthcare spend occurs in 20% of patients. We aim to drastically reduce this cost through modern software, hardware, and preventative care services. Our core device, the UrinDx, combines continuous urinary diagnostics and machine-learning to allow patients to track changes in their health at home by monitoring changes in their urine over time.

To date, we've raised from top tier investors such as Y Combinator, Innospark Ventures, Rebel Fund, and some of the largest strategics in the space.

About Starling

At Starling we're bringing the future of a proactive and predictive home based healthcare system to patients today.

In our vision, we will identify and predict chronic health exacerbations of patients earlier at home so we can activate preventive care measures in an non-emergent setting vastly improving outcomes and costs for the whole system.

Our team of serial entrepreneurs, engineers, and clinicians are building the next generation of medical products at the intersection of hardware, software, and artificial intelligence. We develop these next generation products to improve the lives of chronic care patients by passively monitoring changes in their urine over time with our AI and care team infrastructure.
