Founding Full Stack Engineer (Senior)

About Us

Operait Health is building an AI-driven, all-in-one platform to run Operating Rooms (ORs) more effectively for hospitals and surgery centers. Hospitals are the foundation of every community. However, the median hospital consistently faces negative operating margins as total costs have increased at their highest rate over the last 5 years. Currently, more than half of the US hospitals have negative margins. ORs present an opportunity for hospitals to maximize revenue, optimize operations, and improve care outcomes for patients.
Our mission is to revolutionize surgical operations with AI by surfacing hidden capacity and boosting revenue while eliminating weeks and months of delay in providing needed care.
We are backed by a well regarded healthcare VC fund and a leading health system.
