<div>About Stellar Health: Historically, US Healthcare has relied on a fee-for-service reimbursement system where providers are paid based on the quantity of patient visits and procedures, rather than the quality of health outcomes.  At Stellar Health, we help primary care providers put patient health first. Our platform - a mix of technology, people, and analytics - supports providers at the point of care, delivering real-time patient information, activating practice staff, and empowering providers and care teams with incentives that reward the work they are already doing to keep patients healthy. Using the Stellar App, our web-based, point-of-care tool; practices receive a simple checklist of recommended actions that support the best quality care. Providers and care teams are then paid monthly for each action they complete, and Payors save money in reduced healthcare costs along the way.   Stellar is a US-based Health-tech backed by Top VCs (General Atlantic, Point72, &amp; Primary Venture Partners)​​ with an established product &amp; proven operating model. We’ve shown that we make a real difference for physician practices and their patients.</div>About the position: We are looking for a Staff Engineer with both technical and leadership experience.
